Christian F. Nunes, the president of the National Organization for Women, told Newsweek that while the group does not know what went into the IAFF’s decision, it was “disappointing” that the union has never endorsed a female presidential nominee.

“Women who have reached a presidential nominee have already surpassed extraordinary leadership levels in their careers,” Nunes said. “We hope that IAFF’s endorsements will change in future presidential races.”
