RoseAnn DeMoro, head of the 185,000 member Oakland-based National Nurses United — the nation’s largest female-dominated union — says Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign has made a “massive misstep” by characterizing the union’s support of her Democratic challenger Bernie Sanders as “dark money.”
“I think Hillary is on a slippery slope, calling unions ‘SuperPACs’ and ‘dark money,'” DeMoro told POLITICO Monday. “She relies on labor as a partial funding base. … What it says is that they’re desperate.”
