The AFL-CIO has a new video up attacking Mitt Romney Monday, coinciding with President Obama’s remarks to the union’s Building and Construction Trades Department this morning. The video, called “Meet Mr. 1%” is a 7-minute introduction to Romney. The video touches on Romney’s positions vis-a-vis labor, including his time in private equity at Bain Capital and remarks he’s made about taking on unions.
AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka asks people at the end of the video to commit to the “labor 2012 campaign,” by knocking on doors and talking to friends to help re-elect Obama and build a movement beyond November.
The AFL-CIO endorsed the president’s reelection campaign in March.
