I'm really surprised Dems haven't held #Klobuchar to account for her well-documented history of "cruelty" toward staff. If a male senator was known to throw things at staff, berate & "dehumanize" them, expect them to pick up his clothes & fold his underwear, would we let it go?
In 2006, Local 2938 urged AFSCME NOT to endorse #Klobuchar for Senate. 2938 represented attorneys & legal professionals who worked under Klobuchar for 7 years, & they felt she was "wholly undeserving of AFSCME's endorsement."
My husband & I are proud #NEA members. We think Democrats ought to take more seriously the charges leveled against #Klobuchar by the local union that represented her employees for 7 years.
NYTimes interviewed 24+ staffers & reviewed internal emails before reporting that many #Klobuchar staffers found her "not just demanding but often dehumanizing." Klobuchar has not denied any allegations, including the binder-throwing incident, but says she's hard on herself, too.
.@HuffPost article includes full text of 2006 AFSCME letter opposing #Klobuchar's endorsement for Senate based on her abusive treatment of staff. huffpost.com/entry/amy-klob…
