Why is it that nothing I get from the Arkansas Democratic Party of any of the candidates have the union sticker on them?

The Harris sign I got from the Harris campaign had the union logo, but not the one from the Arkansas Democratic Party. I have gotten several mailers from Arkansas candidates and none had the logo. Is it not required any more or just not using union printers any more?

1. Maybe they chose to leave it off, because...Arkansas.

According to their store page, their printer is Bright Blue Ink here in Austin, Texas. BBI is a union shop.

Maybe it's a strategic decision to leave it off in some areas that are more anti-union, though that's just a wild guess. Or maybe they just don't tag stuff as union-made. I'm sure you could contact them (link below) and find out.

As an aside, BBI has been completely overwhelmed with orders and there have been a lot of complaints about waiting weeks or months for gear. That could be a good thing - maybe demand is significantly higher than they expected, though it's a bummer for people waiting for their stuff.

2. Ok I sent the a message. I think it went low bid as the local candidates did.

3. CWA lists NO paper goods union printers in Arkansas.

The Teamsters list is just a spreadsheet, organized by company name rather than location, which isn't very helpful. There are union garment printers and sign printers advertising in Little Rock, but I couldn't find anyone doing offset litho, for example.

4. From the shipping label, it looks to have been printed in Austin, TX
