Kamala Harris at a UAW meeting, Donald Trump speaking at Teamsters headquarters
Harris and Trump have each made a push to talk to union members and seek endorsements from leadership.
  • Both Harris and Trump are courting the union vote, as blue-collar workers are key in swing states.
  • Experts told Business Insider that a Harris-Walz presidency would be much better for unions.
  • Despite his policies and appointments, Trump has made inroads with many rank-and-file union members.

On Wednesday, vice presidential nominee Tim Walz spoke to a group of firefighter union members and said that Kamala Harris would protect their rights far more than her opponent.
