Andrew Stern is the former president of Service Employees International Union (SEIU) which became one of the largest and most politically involved political action committees in the United States during his tenure as President from 1996 to 2010. [1]

He is considered one of the most influential labor bosses in the United States and he has been cited as a supporter of universal basic income. More recently, Stern has been characterized as "using his resume in organized labor to support a group that explicitly aims to undermine teacher’s unions—at a time when teacher’s unions have done more to revive militancy in organized labor than any other group." [2]
