When it comes to union contributions, Creigh Deeds has taken more than his fair share from AFSCME. Recently, AFSCME gave Deeds a $400,000 contribution, which brings their grand total contribution to over $900,000.
With contributions flowing in from other unions, including SEIU, the United Food & Commercial Workers, Communication Workers of America COPE, and the Virginia state AFL-CIO, Deeds has raked in nearly $1.9 million to help pay for negative television ads. These are the same ads that have been driving more and more Virginians away from Deeds’ campaign.
Since Virginia is a right-to-work state, it only goes to prove that Deeds will not look after the common worker.
