‘We’ve Got to Get in the Union Halls’: Dingell on What Dems Should Do to Win 2024 Elections

‘We‘ve got to talk to those workers’

EXCERPT:

DINGELL: “I think it’s going to be all of them. Today was a political speech. Last night was the official State of the Union speech. That’s why you saw the more direct naming of the person today. I think being worried about what’s going to happen to our democracy, treating each other civilly is an important issue, but there are a lot of different groups that are going to matter that have to show up in November at the polls. Women are going to be the biggest. In Michigan, a few years ago, when abortion was on the ballot, had one of the highest voter turnouts we’ve ever had. We need to turn out women. A lot of the economic discussions he’s having right now, we’ve got to get in the union halls. We’ve got to talk to those workers. These are issues that are going to resonate with them as well, and they’ve got to get to the polls. So these are very, very important issues in terms of some of the people that have to vote in November.”
