John McCain
Nuclear Power Plant Tour
Newport, MI 08/05/08

TRANSCRIPT:
JIM HARRIS: My name is Jim Harris and I'm President of the utility workers union America Local Number 223. I represent the 220 working men and women inside the Fermi facility. Well, we want to make sure that the message from organized labor and particularly utility workers unions is John McCain, John McCain is not right for Michigan. We want to make the message as well as utility workers and organized labor supportive of nuclear power but John McCain's policies are bad for Michigan in relation to economic policy and working families. Well we've got as with any organized organization we have members who have a variety of different political beliefs. We're educating our members on what his policies are. The union with the strong support of our membership endorsing Senator Obama so we believe a majority of our members feel the same way. They have not seen benefits of the current administration as far as their paychecks go and their benefits go and they're ready for a change.

McCain is in the pockets of Big Energy - he will dump nuclear poison on NDN reservations - he forced the Navajo to live on nuclear waste dumps. Watch McCain Am I My Brother's Keeper and McCain Land Deals for the truth!

Politics have nothing to do with it...Unions always blindly follow Democrats.
