AFSCME's Saunders: Voters rejected chaos and rising costs, and chose candidates committed to making life affordable again

WASHINGTON – AFSCME President Lee Saunders released the following statement on Tuesday’s election results:

“Across the country, voters rejected chaos and rising costs, and chose candidates committed to making life affordable again for working families.
