The Arkansas AFL-CIO today endorsed Bill Halter over runoff opponent Tim Wooldridge for Lt. Governor.

Alan Hughes and various labor leaders joined Bill Halter this morning at his campaign headquarters to announce the endorsment.  Labor's support will add significant organizational strength to Halter's campaign.

"I am grateful for the support of the AFL-CIO as well as the working men and women they represent," remarked Halter.

The primary runoff election is Tuesday, June 13th.
