Independence, MO – Today, The International Association of Bridge, Structural, Ornamental and Reinforcing Iron Workers Union Local 10 endorsed Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate.
The union represents workers in 63 Missouri counties.
“We’re proud to join the coalition of workers backing Lucas Kunce — a 13-year Marine veteran and born-and-raised Missourian who knows us, knows his stuff, and knows how to fight for us,” said Dave Coleman, Business Manager for Iron Workers Local 10. “Workers and middle-class families in Missouri deserve a U.S. Senator who means it when he says he’ll fight for us. From deploying to Iraq and Afghanistan, to negotiating arms control treaties and taking on the defense monopolies that threaten our security, Lucas Kunce has never forgotten the working-class community that he signed up to honor and serve.”
Despite pathetic attacks from Hawley and his allies about playing Magic the Gathering while serving in Iraq and Afghanistan, Kunce majorly outraised Hawley for the first quarter of the race (with a record-breaking fundraising haul) and he continues to gain support from organized labor across the state.
