With UAW endorsement secured, Kamala Harris sets Aug. 7 for Detroit rally

DETROIT, MI — United Auto Workers leaders announced the organization’s endorsement of Kamala Harris for president on the eve of the Democrat’s planned rally in a city synonymous with auto manufacturing.

“Our job in this election is to defeat Donald Trump and elect Kamala Harris to build on her proven track record of delivering for the working class,” UAW President Shawn Fain said in a statement.

Along with the endorsement, the UAW statement revealed Harris would host a rally in Detroit on Wednesday, Aug. 7.

While the Harris campaign earlier had announced plans for a rally next week, the specific date of the event was not revealed until the UAW statement. Campaign officials later confirmed the rally was scheduled for Wednesday evening.
