Congressman Tom Udall arrived to a packed town hall meeting in the south east part of Albuquerque. Union members filled the Plumber and Pipefitters hall on San Pedro to see the man that will soon be our new U.S. Senator. A number of candidates also showed up to take part in the town hall. Martin Heinrich shared the stage with Congressman Udall to answer union member's questions. One retired Union member stated in his question that some retired individuals have lost up to 50% of their retirement due to the poor management of the economy under the present Republican Administration .Both Congressman Udall and Martin Heinrich showed uncommon
insight into how to deal with economic issues that face middle class families like union members. Both candidates clearly have the total support of local unions. State Union President Christine Trujillo asked the very large group to get out and support our candidates this election year. In the crowd talking with union members was State Senator Tim Keller and State Representative Al Park both of which are supported by the local Unions.
