Ironworker Brian Poindexter on His Primary Win and Fighting for Workers First

He won an eight-way Democratic primary with nearly 38 percent of the vote — 16 points ahead of his nearest competitor. He is a union ironworker, the son of a machinist and the grandson of an autoworker, now running to unseat Rep. Max Miller in one of Ohio's most closely watched House races. On today's episode of America's Work Force Union Podcast, congressional candidate Brian Poindexter returns to discuss his primary victory, why today's end-of-second-quarter fundraising deadline is the most important date on his campaign calendar and the bipartisan momentum building around Social Security reform. He also makes the case that the Faster Labor Contracts Act is a good start but is incomplete without fixing the chronically underfunded National Labor Relations Board, and discusses his role in securing a project labor agreement for the new Cleveland Browns stadium in Brook Park, expected to create 6,000 unionized construction jobs.
