Indianapolis Press Conference | Bernie Sanders



Published on May 3, 2016
In what’s become an Election Day ritual, Bernie Sanders on Tuesday went to a local diner for breakfast. Over bacon and eggs at Pepe’s diner in Indianapolis, the senator was joined by Chuck Jones. He’s the president of the United Steelworkers Union local at a Carrier factory where heaters are made. The plant owner, United Technologies, wants to shut it down and move the 1,400 jobs to a factory in Monterey, Mexico, where workers earn only $3 an hour.

Mexico. They should produce products where they plan to sell them. Same for all other companies.

"I really appreciate Senator Sanders standing up for working people throughout the county. He's the ONLY ONE that's been a champion of our cause for a number of years."
