TN AFL-CIO Announces Labor-Endorsed Candidates for General Election
NASHVILLE, AUGUST 26, 2024- Following a joint meeting of its Executive Board and Committee on Political Education (COPE) held last week, the Tennessee AFL-CIO Labor Council is announcing its list of endorsed candidates ahead of the November 5th General Election.
"We've never been so inspired after simply reading through a stack of questionnaires," said TN AFL-CIO President Billy Dycus. "This is by far the most impressive group of candidates who have sought labor's endorsement in quite some time, including the highest number of current or former union members. Whether they're an incumbent or challenging one of the many anti-worker lawmakers we face at the federal and state levels, there's no doubt that these Tennesseans would be strong voices for our more than 60,000 members. Working families across our state are fed up with being governed by a supermajority that's drunk with power and only caters to big business and corporate special interest groups. As we emphasize on a regular basis, the only way to change what happens at the Tennessee General Assembly or in Washington is for voters to change who they send to represent their interests. Electing these strong labor-supporters is the first steps towards making that happen. We congratulate all of our endorsed candidates and look forward to working with you to make life better for all Tennesseans."
Together with its five Central Labor Councils and affiliated unions, the Tennessee AFL-CIO will spend the next two months mobilizing its members in support of these candidates to ensure that working families are represented at all levels of government.

TylerIATSE General Executive Board Endorses Kamala Harris for President of the United States, Expresses Gratitude to President Biden
July 22, 2024The IATSE General Executive Board voted unanimously to extend its endorsement to Vice President Kamala Harris for President of the United States on Monday, following President Joe Biden’s decision not to seek reelection and his subsequent full support and endorsement of VP Harris’ candidacy.
The Biden-Harris White House has been the most pro-union administration in history and Vice President Kamala Harris has played a pivotal role in delivering landmark policies and legislation to benefit IATSE workers.
In her capacity as Vice President, Harris cast the tie-breaking vote in the Senate to pass the American Rescue Plan Act, providing IATSE members the pandemic relief they needed to pay the bills and stay safe until a return to work was possible.
As chair of the White House Task Force on Worker Organizing and Empowerment, Vice President Harris engaged IATSE to provide input on executive actions that will increase worker organizing and empowerment in our industries. She then joined President Biden in inviting a young IATSE organizer to the White House to lift up our organizing successes in animation.
“President Biden’s legacy as the most effective champion for America’s workers to ever occupy the White House is indisputable,” said IATSE International President Matthew D. Loeb. “His unrelenting support of IATSE workers and the labor movement cannot be overstated. I’m proud to convey the immense gratitude of the IATSE membership for his lifetime of public service and unparalleled leadership. We honor his decision not to run for reelection and are committed to doing whatever it takes to elect Vice President Kamala Harris this November. We are united in our mission to deny Donald Trump, who crossed an IATSE picket line in 2004, another four years of assaulting workers’ rights, undermining unions, and jeopardizing our democracy.”
The Biden-Harris administration has actively sought to include the voices of IATSE behind-the-scenes entertainment workers in decisions that impact our industries and workplaces. IATSE has had a seat at the table and unprecedented opportunities to weigh-in on policy decisions that impact our members. We have every confidence that will continue under Vice President Kamala Harris’ leadership.
Powered by the strength of the IATSE membership, we will put the full weight of our Alliance behind Kamala Harris for President and build on the progress we’ve made the last 4 years.IATSE Political Coordinator Resources

IATSE PAC WebsiteTN AFL-CIO Announces Endorsement of Megan Barry for Congress
NASHVILLE, APRIL 29, 2024- Following a unanimous vote by its Executive Board last week, the Tennessee AFL-CIO Labor Council announces its endorsement of Megan Barry for Congress.
"Working families have never had to question whether Megan Barry will stand up for their interests," said TN AFL-CIO President Billy Dycus. "From her multiple terms serving on Nashville's Metro Council, to her tenure as mayor, her record speaks for itself. Even as the city underwent unprecedented growth and development during her time in office, Megan made sure that workers always had a seat at the table. Her flawless ability to have conversations with and create consensus among various groups shows that she is committed to representing all Tennesseans who live in the state's 7th Congressional District, regardless of their political affiliation.
Whether it's in Congress or at the State Capitol in Nashville, it's no secret that working families don't have a lengthy list of lawmakers who will speak out on their behalf. Megan would be a welcome addition to that group. While her opponent is hyper-focused on playing partisan games and pushing an extremist agenda, Megan is ready to step up and serve the district. She is a tireless fighter who would be a reliable advocate for our members at the federal level. We are proud to endorse her campaign for Congress and look forward to her victory in November!"
As the presumptive Democratic nominee in the race for Tennessee's 7th Congressional District, Megan will face Congressman Mark Green in the General Election on November 5th. The Tennessee AFL-CIO's Executive Board and Committee on Political Education (COPE) will meet on August 21st to consider additional endorsement recommendations.
The Tennessee AFL-CIO Labor Council represents over 60,000 working men and women throughout the state.
