Statement of Brent Booker, General President of the Laborers’ International Union of North America

“Disappointment, yes — despair, never. We will hold the President-Elect accountable to working men and women and stand ready to work with him and all elected officials to create real opportunities for our members”

Washington, D.C. (Nov. 6, 2024) — Brent Booker, General President of LIUNA — the Laborers’ International Union of North America — made the following statement today regarding the election:

With millions of contacts — member-to-member on jobsites, in homes and union halls, at rallies and community events, through social media, email and mail — LIUNA powered a massive, sophisticated election effort.

We are proud of our members and of our leaders, whose tireless work was driven by a passion for our country, faith in the power of unions to improve lives, belief in facts and truth, and an unwavering confidence in decency, character, and cooperation.

Although the President-Elect’s actions are riddled with attacks on working people and their unions, as patriots we nonetheless congratulate him and accept the election results. Disappointment, yes — despair, never. We will hold the President-Elect accountable to working men and women and stand ready to work with him and all elected officials to create real opportunities for our members.

The machine we built will live on and grow stronger as we fight to protect investment in our critical infrastructure, fight to defend policies that support good wages and benefits, and fight for the fundamental freedom to join a union.
