PITTSTON, PA — Congressman Rob Bresnahan’s campaign today announced that he has earned the endorsement of Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU), representing transit workers including bus drivers, mechanics, and rail operators across Pennsylvania. The endorsement adds to a growing coalition of labor unions supporting Bresnahan’s campaign for re-election.
“The ATU has always been clear about one thing: we support our allies, regardless of party,” said ATU Local 164 President/Business Agent Robert Christopher. “Representative Rob Bresnahan didn’t have to stand with us. He chose to. He looked at a bill that could save transit workers’ lives and he said yes. That’s what real leadership looks like. Rob knows our district, he knows working people, and he’s shown up for us when it matters. We are proud to endorse him, and we encourage every ATU member in Northeastern Pennsylvania to get out and vote for Rob Bresnahan.”
The Amalgamated Transit Union is the largest labor union representing transit workers across the United States and Canada, advocating for strong public transportation systems, workforce protections, and long-term infrastructure investment.
“I’m honored to have earned the support and trust of ATU, and I’ll continue fighting for the men and women who power our transportation systems and our economy,” said Congressman Rob Bresnahan. “As a former union electrical contractor, I understand firsthand the importance of investing in infrastructure and supporting the workers who keep Northeastern Pennsylvania moving.”
ATU joins a growing coalition of labor organizations supporting Bresnahan’s re-election, including:
- IBEW Local 163 (Endorsement letter HERE)
- Brotherhood of Railroad Signalmen (Endorsement letter HERE)
- Pennsylvania Laborers’ District Council (Endorsement letter HERE)
He has also earned the endorsement of labor affiliate, National Electrical Contractors Association (Endorsement letter HERE).
He was also awarded the “Outstanding New Member of Congress” honor by the American Federation of Government Employees.
