Joe Biden wins endorsement from NEA, nation's largest union

PUBLISHED: 03/15/20 06:49 AM EDT
(AP) -- The nation’s largest labor union has lined up behind Joe Biden’s presidential campaign, with the National Education Association on Saturday endorsing the former vice president for the Democratic nomination over his last remaining primary rival Bernie Sanders.

The NEA’s board of directors chose Biden following a recommendation from the organization’s political action committee board, following months of surveying the organization’s 3 million members and multiple presidential candidate forums held around the country.


NEA President Lily Eskelsen Garcia, whose union tops 3 million members, called Biden a “tireless advocate for public education” and “the partner that students and educators need now in the White House.”


And there you go, Joe!

Biden 2020!
You Go, Joe!
If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
