In case you missed the news from Amir “Chick Magnet” Farokhi’s campaign…
I am excited and honored to announce that I’ve officially been endorsed by the Atlanta-North Georgia Labor Council, AFL-CIO.
Labor’s support is a terrific boost to my campaign and validates our commitment to making Atlanta the most livable city in the country.
Last week, a panel of more than 20 Labor Council representatives interviewed City Council candidates. Afterwards, the Labor Council decided that my dedication to Atlanta’s working families deserved their endorsement over the other candidates in the Post 2 At-Large race.
“Atlanta’s working families need another strong advocate in the City Council, and Amir Farokhi has the commitment and knowledge to help make Atlanta a city that works for working families,” said Eric Robertson, Political Director for Teamsters Local 728.
I look forward to working alongside the Labor Council’s 42 local affiliates, representing 87,000 union members across metro Atlanta, to build a city that supports working families with good jobs and benefits, while advocating for affordable housing and better transit options.
Great cities make room for everyone at the table and Labor will be instrumental in helping Atlanta fulfill its potential.
