Dubuque, IA - Today, Iowa Teamsters announced their endorsement of State Representative Lindsay James for Congress in Iowa’s Second Congressional District

“As Iowa’s largest union, we represent workers from nearly every corner of the state’s economy. We see firsthand the challenges our working families face every day—and we recognize those who are truly fighting to make a difference,” said Jesse Case, Secretary-Treasurer of Teamsters Local 238. “Lindsay James has consistently stood with the Iowa Teamsters, pushing back against corporate greed and special interests, and showing up when it mattered most. If we want Congress to put everyday people first again, it starts with electing Lindsay James.”

Iowa Teamsters include Local 238, the largest union in the state, representing thousands of workers touching all aspects of Iowa’s economy, including representing public and private sector workers and members of law enforcement and health care workers.

“I’m honored to have the support of the Iowa Teamsters. Iowans are working harder than ever to get ahead, but higher prices and stagnant wages are leaving hard working families behind,” said James. “In congress, I’ll stand up to special interests and fight for better pay, lower costs, and an economy that works for all Iowans.”
