Teamsters give backing to Langworthy

2 min read

U.S. Rep. Nick Langworthy announced Thursday the endorsement of the New York Teamsters in his campaign for re-election to Congress, earning the support of one of the nation's largest labor organizations for his record of standing up for working people and strengthening the American middle class.

The Teamsters represent more than 1.3 million working men and women across various industries, including transportation, logistics, manufacturing, construction, public services, and more. They issued their endorsements to a bipartisan slate of congressional candidates across New York State, citing Congressman Langworthy's commitment to championing policies that expand economic opportunity, protect good-paying jobs, and ensure workers have a fair shot at building a better future for their families.

"This endorsement is incredibly meaningful to me because it's from the hardworking men and women who keep our country moving, build our communities, manufacture our products, deliver our goods, and keep our economy running," Langworthy said. "They are who I'm fighting for every day in Washington because they are at the heart of America's strength. I have always believed in the power of a good-paying career and a strong middle class, but we need leaders who do more than talk– but actually get results– and I'm so proud to have the Teamsters’ endorsement in my reelection."
