Baltimore Building & Construction Trades Unions Endorse Braveboy for Maryland Attorney General


The 13-affiliate labor unions of Baltimore Building & Construction Trades Council threw its support behind Delegate Aisha N. Braveboy in her race for the Democratic nomination for attorney general.  Braveboy, a two-term lawmaker from Prince George's County, is competing against Sen. Brian E. Frosh of Montgomery County and Del. Jon S. Cardin of Baltimore County in the June 24 primary.  Her endorsement by the Baltimore Building Trades Council follows the decision last month of the Washington, D.C. area construction unions to support Braveboy. "All three candidates are good candidates," said Rod Easter, President of the Baltimore Council.  But Easter said labor is familiar with Braveboy from her work on the House Economic Matters Committee, which handles most of the legislation affecting unions.  READ MORE.
