Yesterday, the 6,000 members of the Boston Carmen’s Union, Local 589 unanimously endorsed Cong. Stephen Lynch for U.S. Senate, and Rep. Nick Collins for Massachusetts State Senate. Both candidates support mass transit and working families.

Lynch and Collins came to yesterday’s regular meeting of the membership where they talked with members and asked for their support. Both are special elections. The U.S. Senate seat opened up with Sen. John Kerry becoming the head of the U.S. State Department. The seat that Collins is vying for opened up with the retirement of Sen. Jack Hart.
