AFT PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE QUESTIONNAIRE |
The American Federation of Teachers sent questionnaires to all the candidates for President of the United States, Democratic and Republican.
Three responded: Hillary Clinton, Martin O’Malley, and Bernie Sanders:

CAT Tracks Editor's Note:
Bears repeating:
The AFT sent questionnaires to Democratic AND Republican candidates, but not one Republican bothered to respond.
There's a reason why pro-union folks like myself vote overwhelmingly Democratic...
...even when many Democratic politicians/office holders (e.g. Barack Obama, Pat Quinn, Michael Madigan) stray to the dark side for a few votes more.
Most Republicans, including ALL THE 2016 CANDIDATES for President of the Unites States won't even give unions the time of day.
Sadly, we have no choice...
