The SEIU Illinois State Council, which sponsors this web site, has issued their endorsements for the upcoming March 20 primary races.
“Each of these candidates has championed the needs of the working families united in SEIU and the millions of people they serve every day as home care and child care providers, public employees, medical professionals, security guards and janitors, first responders and social service workers,” said Tom Balanoff, president of the SEIU Illinois State Council.
The state's largest labor union says it is putting its "backing behind candidates who have demonstrated strong voting records on issues related to income equality, affordable housing, consumer protections and other needs that help keep working families and their communities stable, healthy and safe," according to a press release.
