UAW Backs Smith - Keys in on Issue #2
CLEVELAND, Oct. 6 -- The Cuyahoga-Medina UAW Community Action
Program Council, representing 40,000 UAW members and their families, today
announced its endorsements for the November 4, 1997, General Election.
Chairman Bill Meany highlighted the UAW's position to VOTE NO on Issue 2,
the Workers' Compensation issue, calling Issue 2 the single most important
issue ever to appear on the ballot in Ohio. Meany also stated that Helen
Smith, the UAW endorsed candidate for Mayor of Cleveland, agrees with the UAW
stance on Issue 2, as do all the other UAW endorsed candidates.
