“The United Auto Workers in the 3rd Congressional district have enthusiastically endorsed you in your bid for District 33 Kentucky State House of Representatives.  Your position on the working people of Kentucky has been the most encouraging.  You have not only shown the working people of the UAW but other labor unions that you will support us and continue the fight for the working class men and women of Kentucky.  Thanks for your commitment and we look forward in working with you once elected to office. “
