Power At Work Blogcast #25: A Political Directors Roundtable

Listen to Burnes Center Senior Fellow Seth Harris in conversation with three national union political directors exactly one year before the 2024 presidential and congressional elections. Seth is joined by Susan Valentine from Unite Here!, Russ Breckenridge from the United Association of Plumbers and Pipefitters, and Katrina Mendiola from the National Education Association. 

The panel discusses the role unions play in elections and issues that motivate union members to vote. Seth also cajoled the panel into making predictions about the outcome of the 2024 presidential election and which party will control the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate after 2024, as well as which party is likely to increase the number of governorships it controls after 2024.
