UFCW Local 455 proudly congratulates Gina Hinojosa on her election as Governor of Texas and James Talarico on his election to the U.S. Senate. These victories represent an important step forward for working families across Texas and reflect the power of working people coming together to demand leadership that puts their needs first.
Throughout the campaign season, UFCW Local 455 leaders, members, and shop stewards participated in mobilizations and events across Texas in support of Hinojosa and Talarico, with President Brandon Hopkins and union members pledging their full support and standing together to ensure working families have a strong voice and leaders committed to their priorities.
A New Direction for Working Texans
Texans have made their voices heard by choosing a new direction for our state. From meatpacking communities to grocery stores and other essential workplaces across Texas, working people deserve leaders who will fight to lower the cost of living, create good-paying jobs, protect workers’ rights, strengthen communities, and ensure families have the opportunity to build a better future.
UFCW Local 455 is proud to have endorsed and supported both Gina Hinojosa and James Talarico, and we congratulate Governor-elect Hinojosa and Senator-elect Talarico on their victories. We look forward to working alongside them and other pro-worker leaders to advance policies that strengthen labor, protect the rights of working people, and recognize the essential contributions of UFCW members across Texas.
This is an opportunity for meaningful change in Texas—one that puts working families, strong unions, and good jobs at the center of our state’s future. UFCW Local 455 looks forward to the progress ahead and the positive changes we anticipate: a stronger voice for labor, greater opportunities for working people, and a better future for all working members and their families.
