Jane Harman Denied L.A. Labor Endorsement
The Los Angeles County Federation of Labor turned
thumbs down on U.S. Representative Jane Harman, who represents Venice, even
though she has no opposition in the June primary.
A committee of the Federation, which
represents 300,000 union members in L.A. County had recommended endorsing
Harman, but the union delegates voted not to endorse by more than a two-thirds
margin.
Harman’s support for
NAFTA, the Iraq war, her sponsorship of HR 1955 on domestic terrorism and her
opposition to Universal Heathcare led the delegates to oppose endorsing
her.
