Ferguson endorsed for Congress

NEGAUNEE — The Michigan Regional Council of Carpenters and Millwrights has endorsed Dana Ferguson for U.S. Congress.

The council has locals across Michigan as well as several major regional training facilities, including one in Negaunee Township.

“The endorsement from the Carpenters and Millwrights union is a tremendous honor for me,” Ferguson said in a news release. “The construction industry and union workers have been a huge part of my life. Growing up, my dad frequently took me to his job sites to see the work being done and talk with the crew.”

Ferguson said he learned about the importance of unions and the industry overall on a first-hand basis, and this makes earning an endorsement from the Carpenters and Millwrights “incredibly impactful.”

“I was proud to work alongside my brothers and sisters in the field as a union carpenter, and I will proudly fight for them in Washington,” he said.

Ferguson said he and his team are committed to supporting Michigan labor and strengthening labor unions.
