Rochester, N.Y.--  The New York State AFL-CIO has endorsed Kathy Hochul (D) for Congress in a special election to fill the vacated Chris Lee (R) seat in Western NY.

Kathy Hochul supports working families in fighting to protect Medicare, creating jobs and sustainable communities. As this race continues to receive unprecented national attention, we need to make sure that corporate special interests helping to fund her opponents' campaigns are shown the door in upstate New York. Not in our house.  The WNY ALF and RGV ALF have been working with locals to phone, leaflet and educate members in CD 26 about the importance of getting out to vote in this race.

Your help is needed! The following is a listing of upcoming labor walks and Election Day locations in the district. If you have locals or members in the region that can volunteer some time, it would be greatly appreciated. Local details are below:
