Smaller Unions Complain Of White House Cold Shoulder

Twigg was the Obama campaign’s liaison to labor in 2012, and drew universal praise for the job she did from even the leaders who criticized the White House liaison office. Gaspard put her in the top job on the campaign trail, and helped get her the White House gig too. She carries his stamp of approval, which is important to union leaders who thought of Gaspard as closely aligned with labor’s interests.

She didn’t rise through the ranks of labor, however, which gives some critics pause.

“It would be wonderful if she was the communications director from a major union, but she wasn’t,” Junemann said. “I’ve seen other people who have resumes that aren’t glowing but end up doing a pretty good job and I’m willing to give her the benefit of the doubt.”

Early reviews of Twigg’s performance have been positive, and have the critics hopeful they’ll get the access they’ve been wanting since Obama took office.

“When she made a commitment she kept it,” Henley said, recalling Twigg’s time on the campaign trail. “So we are really hopeful that office will be more responsive in the coming weeks and months.”

  1. You did a great job! This post sound really nice.
    I saw something similar a few weeks ago, something like this https://bafeastorfashion.com/, but you did detailed study, and your
    article appears to be more persuasive than others.
    I am amazed by the arguments you provided in addition to the
    manner of your post. I like when articles are both
    informative and interesting, when even boring facts are presented
    in an interactive way. Well, it’s definitely about your post.
