(WAYNE, MICHIGAN) - For the first time in history, a candidate for the U.S. Presidency reminded people that many things we take for granted, including weekends themselves, are among the things none of us would have were it not for Unions.

The enormous crowd at the United Auto Workers (UAW) Union Hall, where Kamala Harris - the Democratic nominee for the highest office in the land, delivered that message, went wild with applause.

Harris had won them to her side against the criminal ex-President, Donald Trump.

In the first-time-ever launch of a Presidential Campaign in a union hall, Vice President Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the Democratic ticket for the White House, made history.

Harris bounded onto the stage at UAW Local 900’s hall in Wayne, Michigan last week, coming off a rousing, roaring reception from tens of thousands of people at Detroit’s airport the day before.

Her speech was strongly pitched to the achievements of Organized Labor over the years.

Looking directly at the cameras and talking to “the viewers out there,” Harris reminded the Nation that Unions brought to all Workers the eight-hour day, the five-day work week, the weekend “and vacation time.”

She also listed the priorities she plans to achieve should she win the White House, with Organized Labor’s help: Expansion of child care; the John Lewis Voting Rights Act; the Freedom to Vote Act; and preserving the Affordable Care Act, among them.

“Our job in this election is to defeat Donald Trump and elect Kamala Harris to build on her proven track record of delivering for the Working Class,” UAW President Shawn Fain said in a comment posted on the UAW’s website.

“We stand at a crossroads in this country.  We can put a billionaire back in office who stands against everything our Union stands for or we can elect Kamala Harris who will stand shoulder to shoulder with us in our war on corporate greed.  This campaign is bringing together people from all walks of life, building a movement that can defeat Donald Trump at the ballot box.  For our one million active and retired (UAW) Members, the choice is clear: We will elect Kamala Harris to be our next President this November,” Fain said.
