Last night, the Naples Daily News posted an expose on the jobs record of political newcomer Curt Clawson, who's running for Congress in the Naples-Fort Myers area, and found that his jobs record included an Obamacara bailout, layoffs for workers and outsourcing, a poor workplace safety record and even the death of a worker, Shawn Boone.
Clawson says nothing of that record on the campaign trail or in his ads, which portray him as a job-creating turnaround artist.
So we asked Boone's sister, Tammy Miser, what she thought. Here's her email response:
If Florida wants someone who will not respond to their needs, is in the habit of tearing down a community and does not act on the behalf of the public's health and welfare then Mr. Clawson is the man for them.
The company he ran had many names a few of which were Kelsey-Hayes Co, Hayes, Hayes Lemmerz, Western Wheels and they were in the business of stripping down and shipping out jobs.
1. Announced closing Romulus, MI plant 1997
2. Announced closing Bowling Green, KY plant 2001
3. Announced Hayes Lemmerz International Inc. in Mexico 2004
4. Announced closing Howell, MI plant 2004
5. Announced closing Huntington, IN plant 2006
6. Announced closing Gainesville, Ga. plant 2008
This company also had many deaths and injuries in their plants. When I meet him after my brother Shawn was killed in a dust explosion he stated "If you need anything contact me." I had issue with a few words being said from a manager and wrote Mr. Clawson a letter. I received no response. One man dead and another in a coma and they were done with it.
Here's her congressional testimony on what happened to her brother
