The University of Californias largest employee union, AFSCME Local 3299, voted to endorse Sen. Bernie Sanders bid for President ahead of Californias March 3 primary.
AFSCME 3299 represents 26,000 service and patient care workers at the University of California, and is comprised mostly of women and people of color who are among the lowest-paid workers in the UC system.
The union said its endorsement follows a consultation with membership in which Sanders received significantly more support than all other candidates combined in a recent survey.

AFSCME 3299 is the third University of California union to endorse Sanders, joining the California Nurses Association and UPTE-CWA Local 9119.
