~ Political Endorsement ~ Greater Boston Labor Council Endorses Rhalimi for Council At-Large

In mid-July, the Greater Boston Labor Council (GBLC) endorsed Alexander Rhalimi for Revere City Council at-Large. GBLC is a regional labor organization representing the interests of workers in the Greater Boston area, particularly in the labor unions and the broader labor movement. Labor councils like the GBLC often serve as umbrella organizations that bring together various labor unions and worker’s advocacy groups to coordinate efforts and initiatives aimed at protecting worker’s rights, promoting fair labor practices, and advocating for labor-related policies.

“I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the Greater Boston Labor Council for the invaluable endorsement of my candidacy for Revere Council at-Large. This endorsement is not only a vote of confidence in our shared goals and vision for workers’ rights and social justice but also a testament to the strength and unity of the labor movement in Revere. I am deeply honored to have the backing of an organization as respected and influential as the GBLC,” Rhalimi said.

Rhalimi holds a Master degree of Criminal Justice from Boston University. His educational background would be indispensable when interpreting and crafting local ordinances, policies, and regulations as a member of the Revere city council. His knowledge can inform discussions and decisions related to public safety initiatives, law enforcement practices, and community policing.

Currently the principal of Alliance Financial Group, Rhalimi’s experience in financial services provides him with a solid foundation in fiscal management and economic matters, valuable assets when it comes to the role of Councillor at-Large.

Throughout his life, Rhalimi has actively engaged with the Revere community. He has volunteered with local and national non-profit organizations and has cultivated a deep understanding of the issues that matter most to residents. “I am pleased to inform you that the Greater Boston Labor Council has endorsed your candidacy for Revere City Council at-Large, thank you for engaging in our endorsement process and for pledging to fight together for our communities,” said Darlene Lombos, Executive Secretary-Treasurer.
