Senator Mark Kelly, a Democrat from Arizona, has expressed his support for the Protecting the Right to Organize Act (PRO Act), a pro-union legislation that has been a focal point of discussion within the Democratic Party. Kelly, who has been considered a potential running mate for Vice President Kamala Harris, stated that he would vote in favor of the PRO Act.
The PRO Act has been a significant issue for Kelly, as his stance on the legislation has been seen as a crucial factor in his potential nomination as the Democratic vice-presidential candidate. Labor unions play a vital role in the Democratic coalition, making support for the PRO Act an important consideration for party members.
During discussions with sources, Kelly emphasized the importance of unions in society and affirmed his backing for the PRO Act. He mentioned that he would have supported the bill from the outset and continues to stand by it. Kelly expressed his readiness to vote for the PRO Act if it were to be presented for a vote, highlighting his consistent support for the legislation since taking office.
