Clinton spoke to a crowd of several thousand late Sunday at Augsburg College. It was one of several campaign stops as she crisscrossed the country in advance of "Super Tuesday," when Minnesota and 21 other states hold caucuses and primaries.
Clinton was introduced by Eliot Seide, director of AFSCME Council 5, the union representing 43,000 public and non-profit workers in Minnesota.
"Hillary is a true champion of working families," Seide said. "I know because I worked with her in New York. She\'s brilliant, compassionate and passionate. She\'s a bold, strong leader with experience we can trust on day one."
Other unions that have endorsed Clinton include the International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers, International Union of Painters and Allied Trades and the United Transportation Union.
