Benny Napoleon for Mayor

Metro Detroit AFL-CIO Joins Movement
Michigan's largest Central Labor Council lends its support    

  

Dear Detroiter,  

 

Across Detroit working families are struggling to make ends meet with low wages, high insurance rates and poor city services. Together, we will make it simple, make it quick and make it safe for businesses to operate in the city, and to put our people to work. This will lead to construction jobs and other long-term opportunities that give Detroiters the ability to support their families. 

 

The partnership of the Metro Detroit AFL-CIO is important to Detroit's future. Its recent endorsement announcement is further evidence that this is not a campaign -- this is a movement to transform Detroit

 

Metro Detroit AFL-CIO President Chris Michalakis said, "As Sheriff, Benny Napoleon has stood with working people time and time again. This endorsement isn't just an announcement, it is a commitment to mobilize our members and turnout the vote. Our city has tremendous challenges ahead, and it is critical that we face them with a leader who respects the collective bargaining process and will fight for working families."

 

The Metro Detroit AFL-CIO is the largest Central Labor Council (CLC) in Michigan, representing members in Wayne, Oakland, and Macomb counties. The primary responsibility of the Metro Detroit AFL-CIO is to bring different unions together to work collectively to increase union membership, educate and mobilize existing union members, and create a powerful voice for working families.

 

We have worked very hard, together, to protect the collective bargaining rights of labor members from those who want to take away income from struggling working families. We have to ensure that working families are equipped to make our communities stronger. The Metro Detroit AFL-CIO is a vital force as we move forward with our movement to transform Detroit. Its members will be crucial in creating neighborhoods that are livable, walkable and sustainable.

Who is Benny Napoleon?
A leader with proven experience.

In the spirit of Detroit, Benny N. Napoleon, J.D., is seeking the office of mayor of the city of Detroit to chart a new course toward a strong Detroit future. The current Wayne County Sheriff, Napoleon is a lifelong Detroiter who has dedicated nearly 40 years of public service to the citizens of Detroit and Wayne County. As Detroit's Chief of Police, he oversaw the largest general fund department -- and in so doing reduced violent crime by more than 34 percent. Napoleon's passion for the city and his integrity is evident in every leadership role he undertakes. His experience goes far beyond law enforcement into finance, legal, business and real estate -- at the top levels of county government and as a former executive with one of the nation's largest property acquisition firms. He is also a licensed attorney, a vocal leader and advocate for democracy, a former university professor, and mentors youth throughout Detroit. Napoleon's extensive education -- which began in Detroit Public Schools -- and numerous awards and honors are representative of his character and effectiveness.
