Congresswoman Katie Porter (D-CA), candidate for U.S. Senate in California, was endorsed today by the California School Employees Association (CSEA), AFL-CIO, representing a quarter million school support staff throughout the state. CSEA joins a chorus of other unions, good government advocates, and progressive groups praising Porter’s run for the U.S. Senate.

“Throughout her time in Congress, Katie Porter has been a fighter for schools and school employees – the rare representative who is always willing to listen and learn from school support staff on the ground about what we need to keep our students learning and our schools running,” said Adam Weinberger, CSEA’s President. “It’s clear that Katie will be the champion we need, ensuring that students, school support staff, and the hard-working members of organized labor have a voice in the U.S. Senate.”

The California School Employees Association is the largest classified school employee union in the United States, with nearly 800 local affiliates across the state. Many of their workers serve as paraeducators, custodial and maintenance workers, food service workers, school safety officers, bus drivers, or office clerks, among the many classified roles at K–12 schools, community college districts, and county offices of education.

Next polls should be interesting.
