Vice President Kamala Harris is stepping up her efforts to bring rank-and-file union members in swing states back to the Democratic fold — this time with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz in tow.
The new Democratic ticket will hold rallies in Wisconsin and Michigan on Wednesday, with United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain expected to join them at a stop in Detroit, according to the campaign. Fain’s appearance comes a week after the union, which had backed President Joe Biden before he ended his reelection bid, threw their support behind Harris.
