AFGE says Clark will be a fierce advocate for working families in Congress
RIVERDALE, Ga. –– The American Federation of Government Employees today announced its endorsement of Jasmine Clark for election to the U.S. House representing Georgia’s 13th Congressional District. Clark won the statewide Democratic primary in May. The general election is Nov. 3.
An Atlanta native, Clark has served in the Georgia House of Representatives since January 2019.
“AFGE is proud to endorse Jasmine Clark for Congress,” AFGE District 5 National Vice President Tatishka Thomas said. “Throughout her career, she has never backed down from using data, truth, and transparency to hold public systems accountable. Jasmine will be a fierce advocate in Washington, having the determination, experience, and clear vision to safeguard our federal workers and their rights.”
Nearly 106,500 federal employees live in Georgia – caring for veterans, supporting the military, and getting Social Security recipients their benefits accurately and on time.
AFGE is the largest federal employee union in the country, representing more than 820,000 federal and D.C. government workers in all functions of government. AFGE represents 110,000 federal employees in District 5, which includes Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
