Carpenters, Laborers unions endorse Manhattan DA Bragg (D) for re-election

he New York City District Council of Carpenters, Laborers’ International Union of North America and Mason Tenders are officially endorsing Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for re-election.

These unions were major supporters of ex-Assistant District Attorney Diana Florence in her 2021 run against Bragg, where she ultimately finished fifth.

Now, Florence is running again in a long-shot bid for Bragg’s seat, this time as an independent.

Bragg, who’s running for a second term, has previously scooped the support of heavyweight unions 1199SEIU, United Federal of Teachers, DC37 and the Hotel Trades Union, and Manhattan congressional Reps. Nadler, Espaillat and Goldman.
