Require member polling before union presidential endorsements

AI-assisted summary

On November 19, 2025, Robert F. Onder introduced the Endorsement Transparency Act, which would prohibit labor unions from endorsing a presidential candidate unless they first poll their members. He says the requirement is intended to prevent union leaders from making endorsement decisions unilaterally when those decisions conflict with members’ views.
