Randy Villegas is running to represent CA-22 to be a voice for working people in the halls of Congress. His experience as a rank-and-file UAW member makes him uniquely qualified to do just that — and UAW members are out in force to send him to Washington. "What excites me most about @Villegas_CA22 running for Congress is the fact that we're seeing what the union difference makes," said one @uawregion6 member. "He started in the UC institution. He was a member of our union. And now he's making sure to continue that legacy of uniting our communities."

President @BarackObama joined @AbdulElSayed, @JocelynBenson, @garlin, and @EliNSavit for tonight's “One Michigan” get‑out‑the‑vote rally in Detroit, and our UAW family was right there with them. With only 10 days left before Election Day, our members are determined to finish strong by knocking on doors, making phone calls, and having the one-on-one conversations in our communities that will make the difference on November 3.

Michiganders deserve a governor who will prioritize making life more affordable for working families across the state. @JocelynBenson has the experience and the track record to make it happen. Our UAW Region 1D family is proud to back Jocelyn Benson on November 3!

Only 2% of Congress comes from the working class. UAW members across the country are coming together and winning elections to change that. It's time to send working people like Randy Villegas to Congress to deliver for our communities.

Manufacturing jobs in Wisconsin have fallen by 16.3% since NAFTA. That’s over 89,200 fewer manufacturing jobs, according to our new state fact sheets. An agenda that works for working people is not out of reach, we have the ideas.
