SEIU California, one of the state’s most influential and wealthy unions, has un-endorsed state Sen. Scott Wiener in his bid to succeed Nancy Pelosi in Congress. Supervisor Connie Chan is now SEIU California’s sole endorsee. ⁠

SEIU attributed the withdrawal of support to Wiener’s opposition to San Francisco’s Proposition D, informally known as the “Overpaid CEO Tax.” ⁠

Prop. D would levy taxes on companies in which the CEO earns 100 times or more his or her median income employee. ⁠

Supporting the tax “should be an easy choice for San Francisco’s congressmember when it means saving the city’s mental health programs, public hospitals, and emergency response services,” said Theresa Rutherford, president of SEIU Local 1021. ⁠

With the sole endorsement, Chan may get funding for her congressional race from SEIU. ⁠
