SEIU Healthcare 775NW Members Grill Candidates
Monday, June 7
In the last few weeks, SEIU members have interviewed candidates for state legislature in nine legislative districts. Last week, we had a very busy week with interviews four nights in a row!
During each interview, members asked the candidates what they would do to help long-term care workers earn a living wage, whether they’d be willing to “walk a day” in our shoes, and whether they have a plan to win the election.
After each interview, members from different SEIU locals compared the strengths and weaknesses of each candidate. Each local has their own process for making endorsements, but the feedback from the interviews gives a good indication of who is the best candidate to stand up for SEIU members.
In the next few weeks, we’ll be interviewing candidates in the 22nd, 26th, 29th, 30th, 40th, and 42nd districts.
