In choosing radical Congressman Paul Ryan as his vice-presidential running mate, Mitt Romney chose to double-down on his corporate agenda to enrich the top 1% at the expense of working families, according to the president of one of the largest labor unions in North America.

William P. Hite, General President of the 340,000-member United Association of Plumbers, Pipefitters, Sprinkler Fitters and Service Technicians (UA), warned that Ryan “would happily shred the social fabric of our nation without a second thought.”
