MILWAUKEE, Wis. – SEIU Wisconsin today announced its endorsement of Ismael Luna for the Wisconsin 8th Assembly District, calling him the proven labor champion working families need in Madison.
“I am thrilled to be endorsed by SEIU Wisconsin. Their commitment to creating and supporting workers across Wisconsin is admirable and I am truly honored to be here with these SEIU members,” said Luna. “For too long in Wisconsin, the legislature has left working people behind. From stagnant wages, rolling back worker protections, and defunding local communities, Wisconsinites have been left begging for solutions to long term problems.”
“I am running to be a strong advocate for not only families in the 8th Assembly District, but for working families across the state who are worried about a surprise medical bill bankrupting them or how they will afford groceries or rent.”
Louis Davis, SEIU WI Executive Director, stated in introducing Luna that “I know that many of our members who live in the 8th District are looking forward to having representation that prioritizes working people. We need candidates who are experienced with getting things done and Ismael Luna has accomplished a lot in a short amount of time. He is a South Side homeowner who has led his community on substance abuse and housing solutions through his work as a case manager at a local shelter.”
SEIU Wisconsin joins Milwaukee Alder Jocasta Zamarippa, State Representatives Priscilla Prado and Angelina Cruz, LiUNA, Fair Wisconsin, Citizen Action and many other elected officials and civic organizations in endorsing Ismael Luna for Wisconsin State Assembly District 8.
