U.S. Democratic Senate nominee Mazie Hirono has been endorsed by the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA.

AFA represents some 60,000 flight attendants at more than 21 airlines, including Hawaiian Airlines. 

Veda Shook, AFA International president, said in a press release, “We applaud her efforts to prevent flight attendant fatigue, by introducing the Airline First Responder Workplace Fairness Act. Hirono’s efforts to bring workplace safety requirements (OSHA) into the aircraft cabin will help ensure long term benefits for flight attendants and the traveling public as well.”
