Announcing the 2011 Campaign for Raises, Healthcare, and Good Jobs!

On November 2 Tennessee voters elected a new governor and a new General Assembly. 

These elected officials must hear from us about how we the economic crisis is adversely affecting our families and quality of life. 

Some economic conditions are slowly improving in Tennessee.  In fact, for the first quarter of this fiscal year sales tax collections outpaced projections by $46 million, the highest since 2007!  As these trends continue, we cannot allow the excuse of a "bad economy" to be used to keep hard working higher education employees down.  There will be no "economic recovery" until working class Tennesseans see improvements in their economic condition.
