RI AFL-CIO Executive Board unanimously endorses Gregg Amore for Secretary of State  

Providence, RI - On May 23, 2022, the Rhode Island AFL-CIO Executive Board unanimously voted to endorse Gregg Amore for Rhode Island Secretary of State.  

“The Rhode Island AFL-CIO enthusiastically supports Gregg Amore for Secretary of State because he has a long track record of championing issues that are of great importance to working Rhode Islanders,” stated RI AFL-CIO President George Nee. “As a State Representative, he always stood up for working people, whether it was his support for collective bargaining, an increased minimum wage, fairer and safer workplace laws, cracking down on wage theft, or advocating for family-friendly policies like paid sick leave. As a public school civics teacher, he understands the magnitude of the current moment we are living through – and will defend our democracy and our right to vote at all costs, while keeping our elections safe and secure. We believe in Gregg’s vision to make voting easier and more accessible for all Rhode Islanders, because everyone deserves to have their voice heard at the ballot box. Over the coming months, we look forward to communicating to our 80,000 members the importance of this race and doing everything we can to help Gregg get elected this fall.”
