Union Workers Criticize U.S. Senate Candidate Bernie Moreno
Some union workers are criticizing U.S. Senate candidate Bernie Moreno, a week after a Spectrum News report showed he sold cars that were made in China, despite telling voters multiple times that he would not.
Members of the UAW and AFL-CIO, along with labor advocates, gathered near Youngstown to say they cannot trust Moreno.
The controversy stems from the Buick Envision, a Chinese-made car that Moreno said he told GM he wouldn’t sell when he owned a dealership in Beachwood.
But Spectrum News last week found testimonials about the vehicle from 2016 on the Bernie Moreno Companies YouTube page.
“He lied about selling foreign cars, well Chinese cars,” said Jose Arroyo, Vice President of Mahoning/Trumbull County AFL-CIO. “Once again, if you do it, that’s your business, but you don’t go and lie to the American people, not lie to Ohioans or lie to people in the valley about your business records.”
