Pro-Labor Candidate Wins Big in Western Pennsylvania

Buoyed by strong labor support from CWA and other unions, Democrat Conor Lamb won a special election in the normally strong Republican-leaning 18th Congressional District in Western Pennsylvania. Lamb ran on a strong pro-working families platform, in stark contrast to his anti-labor opponent Rick Siccone who supported so-called "right to work" legislation.

CWA members knocked on doors, made phone calls, and hosted a GOTV event at Local 13000 headquarters.
