The influential Culinary Union distributed a flier that says Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders would “End Culinary Healthcare” if elected president of the United States.
The flier, obtained by CNN on Tuesday, outlines where the leading 2020 Democratic candidates stand on health care, immigration and “Good Jobs.” It singles out Sanders as the candidate who will end the union’s health care among the top six Democratic candidates, pointing to his “Medicare for All” plan.
The release of the flier by the union, which is a force in Nevada politics, comes just a week and a half away from the Nevada caucuses. The organization says it represents 60,000 hotel and casino workers in Nevada and provides health insurance coverage for more than 130,000 people. Its organizing abilities have helped deliver the state for Democrats for years. The union has not endorsed a candidate in the 2020 election...
“Some politicians say … ‘You will get more money for wages from the company if you give up Culinary Health Insurance.’ Those politicians have never sat at our bargaining table or been on a 24/7 6 years, 4 months, and 10 days strike line – like we have to make an employer pay for healthcare,” it reads.
“We will not hand over our healthcare for promises,” the flier reads.

Socialists oppose Socialist medicine because it personally affects them.
Bernie’s strength and weakness is that he completely believes his Socialist b-—s——.
Its a strength because is motivates a like-minded core of true believers.
It’s a weakness because he simply doesn’t care how it will impact people. He thinks the theory is sound so implementation will solve itself. however, a lot of people like the Culinary Union do not share his faith.
“...It singles out Sanders as the candidate who will end the union’s health care...”
News flash for you boneheads...ANY democrat will try and end your health care!
Didn’t they do the same thing in 2016?
Don’t mess with folks carrying knives.
I'll bet anyone a sawbuck it will still be a DimRat.
IOW, if Crazy Bernie wins, they’re cooked.
Note to the CWU rank and file: It ain’t just Bernie.
Vote for any Dem at your peril.
Have no idea whom they would support in the Dem primaries then.
None of them are NOT promising the same thing.
Whatever one might think about whether Vietnam should have happened or not, it did, and lots of Americans died fighting Communists there. A lot of Americans died fighting Communists in Korea. Communist Castro encouraged the Communist USSR to fire nuclear missiles at us.
And, people died serving the US during the Cold War (yes, there were casualties).
Now, people are voting for a Communist?
Bernie wants CommieCare to be fair.
Slugs who occupy Martha's Vineyard, Union leaders who over-promised, George Soros and his neighbors - - everyone's gonna have the same VA Style Government Health Care under Bernie.
The only upside is our corrupt politicians will read the legislation BEFORE they vote for it since it's gonna be their 'care' too.
“Note to the CWU rank and file: It ain’t just Bernie. Vote for any Dem at your peril.”
Yes!
But, involuntarily voting D is deep in their psyches, after years of indoctrination from their union masters. It will take de-programming to change (same for blacks, women and today’s youts).
POTUS is leading, but R Congresscritters and R state HQs must do the leg work. Are they doing any? I sure don’t see or hear any in my community.
The labor unions are about to find out that they have been replaced by open communists in the D party.
Trump’s economy is the only thing between their pension funds and insolvency.
They’ll vote for Trump.
I live in NYS.
NYS GOP is an acronymic oxymoron.
In 2016 the NYS GOP was a hindrance to Trump, not a help.
True.
Imagine if everyone, with zero exclusions, had to use only Obamacare — Pelosi and klan would have read it thoroughly, and I doubt they’d have passed it. Heck, it would never have been written or been a bill.
“NYS GOP is an acronymic oxymoron.”
GOPe, GOPnwo, GOPuniparty, GOPukraine...take your pick.
