MILWAUKEE - On Monday, September 2, Governor Tim Walz will deliver remarks at the Milwaukee Area Labor Council’s Laborfest 2024 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Governor Walz will be joined by his wife, Mrs. Gwen Walz. As part of the most pro-union administration in history, Vice President Harris has created millions of good-paying jobs. She is a strong supporter of the PRO Act, cast the deciding vote on legislation that is saving hundreds of thousands of union workers’ pensions, and previously has joined union members on the picket line. Governor Walz, a former union member himself, passed the most pro-worker package of laws in Minnesota’s history — making it easier to form unions, strengthening worker protections, cracking down on union-busting, and giving workers paid leave. Meanwhile, Donald Trump was one of the most anti-worker and anti-union presidents in history. He hurt autoworkers, shipped jobs overseas, and lined the pockets of the super wealthy and big corporations at the expense of the middle class. A second Trump presidency would be even worse – his Project 2025 agenda will raise taxes on typical working families by nearly $4,000 a year, allow employers to stop paying many workers overtime, and roll back labor and workplace protections.
