Supporting Candidates Who Support Our Members
LiUNA Local 499 understands how government entities of all levels play large rolls in the lives of our members. From deciding pay rates, to whether new construction projects can be built, to regulating how our Union organizes, government plays a roll in our work.
Our Union works with like minded elected officials to strengthen our Union and improve the quality of life of our members.

LiUNA Endorses Vice President Kamala Harris
"Vice President Harris has been a key partner in leading the most pro-union White House ever. She played a critical role in advancing the biggest investment in our nation’s infrastructure in modern times, and in doing so is helping to create hundreds of thousands of good union jobs. She has been a trusted partner in bringing jobs back to the U.S. by reviving our manufacturing base. Through the Inflation Reduction Act, the Vice President has helped transform renewable energy jobs in to family supporting union jobs." - Brent Booker, LIUNA General President
