Washington, D.C. – Transport Workers Union, AFL-CIO (TWU) is engaging in an intensive paid media effort warning South Carolina Democrats not to believe New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio’s “fauxgressivism” while the Mayor is visiting this weekend. TWU International President John Samuelsen issued the following statement today on New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio traveling to South Carolina:
“Bill de Blasio is an elitist, New York City corporate Democrat fauxgressive, masquerading around South Carolina as a progressive. De Blasio takes frequent trips to key political regions to promote his brand of phony progressivism, but the reality is he’s anti-worker; and if you’re anti-worker, you’re definitely not progressive.”
“De Blasio’s brand of lifestyle progressivism is not what the Democratic Party needs. The working men and women of America need a leader that supports us, not a fauxgressive that’s in bed with anti-worker developers and billionaires.”
