Presidential Candidate Barack Obama Walks in the Shoes of Oakland Homecare Worker Pauline Beck
Before SEIU members united behind Barack Obama, he walked a day in our shoes. Last August Sen. Obama got a firsthand look at the everyday life of SEIU member and homecare worker Pauline Beck.
On August 8th in Oakland, Calif., Obama arrived at Beck’s home for an early morning breakfast where he spent time with Beck’s daughter—an Oakland school worker—grandnephew, and two foster children.
