STATEMENT BY MATT MORRISSEY
CONCERNING ENDORSEMENT
BY UNITED FOOD AND COMMERCIAL
WORKERS LOCAL 791
“I am grateful and humbled by
the vote of confidence that the
hard working men and women of
the United Food and Commercial
Workers Local 791 have given me
as I campaign for Mayor of New
Bedford. The working families of
our community, from the
waterfront to the shop floor to
the grocery store, are the
backbone of our economy and our
neighborhoods.
They know, as I know, that we
CAN and MUST do better at
creating real jobs, expanding
educational opportunity, and
restoring safety to our streets.
It is critical, as we
shape a new future for our city,
that the voices of working
people are heard
and respected."
