Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who has been rising in the polls, has also been eagerly seeking support from unions and workers. Warren apologized this past weekend after CBS News found that two of her campaign staffers had stayed at the Palms resort in Las Vegas. The powerful Culinary Workers union was picketing the resort, and Warren had endorsed their cause.
“I’m not quite sure how it happened,” Warren told reporters. “But two people stayed one night at a hotel that they should not have. And as soon as we found out about it we called, we apologized. And we’re not going to let it happen again.”
