Kroger Garners SEIU Endorsement

Kroger put another notch in his endorsement belt today when he received the support of the state’s largest union, the Service Employees International Union.

“Our Union has endorsed John Kroger for Attorney General because we need an Attorney General who will stand up for the people of Oregon and John has a history of doing the people’s work,” said Kate Pingo, Secretary-Treasurer of SEIU 49.

 Kroger said he was proud to receive the union’s support, and hopes to work with them to create more jobs for more people in more workplaces.  

“Their endorsement is a powerful statement in our race,” he said.
