Andrew Cuomo, the former Governor of New York, has received key endorsements from influential unions, 32BJ SEIU and the Hotel and Gaming Trades Council, boosting his campaign for the NYC mayoral race. Both unions previously supported Mayor Eric Adams but shifted their backing following his announcement to run as an independent. This change reflects a newfound appreciation for Cuomo's leadership qualities and labor-friendly policies, as union leaders now emphasize his strengths. With a fragmented Democratic candidate field and strong union support representing over 120,000 members, Cuomo positions himself as the front-runner in a competitive race.
The endorsements give Cuomo access to extensive ground support from over 120,000 union members and reinforce his campaign's message of strength and experience.
Union leaders, once critical of Cuomo during his 2021 resignation, now highlight his leadership and labor-friendly record.
