NASHVILLE, Tenn (TN Tribune)- 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 updated list of endorsed candidates ahead of the November 8th General Election.

“We congratulate all of our previously-endorsed candidates on their victories earlier this month and welcome the newest additions to our list of labor-supporters whose voices are badly needed at the State Capitol,” said TN AFL-CIO President Billy Dycus. “Tennesseans are tired of being represented by wealthy politicians who couldn’t care less about their needs and are hungry for new leadership. Working families now have many important decisions to make this fall. Whether it’s electing candidates who will best represent our interests at all levels of government or keeping Tennessee’s harmful “Right to Work” law out of the state constitution by voting against Amendment 1, our members are ready to send a clear message to corporate special interest groups and big business: keep your misguided agenda out of our state.”

Candidates whose names are listed in bold are new additions to the list following the earlier announcement of endorsed candidates for the Primary Election. The body also took positions on the four proposed constitutional amendments, which will be on the ballot in November.
