CWA Local 3201 Endorses Ken Hodges for Attorney General

The Communication Workers of America Local 3201 has endorsed Ken Hodges’ campaign to be Georgia’s next Attorney General.

Roger Todd, president of the Albany, Ga.-based affiliate of North America’s largest telecommunications labor union, says that Hodges, the former District Attorney for Dougherty County, is the Democratic candidate he wants to keep Georgia’s working families safe.

“We know the great work Ken Hodges has done for Albany as its District Attorney,” Todd said, “and we appreciate Ken’s stellar performance advocating for Dougherty County’s crime victims. We’re proud to support him.”

The Communication Workers of America represents 730,000 workers in the U.S. and Canada’s labor sectors, both public and private, and it claims nearly 1,700 chartered local union affiliates.

“I’m humbled by the CWA Local 3201’s endorsement, and I’m grateful for their support,” Hodges said. “Every day the local’s hardworking members do their all to keep this state running on track. That’s a lead I’ll be honored to follow as Attorney General.”

Ken Hodges served for 12 years as Dougherty County’s District Attorney. A proven prosecutor, Hodges earned distinctions as the Chairman of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia, the President of the District Attorney’s Association of Georgia, and as the state’s District Attorney of the Year in 2002. A winner of the Georgia Criminal Justice Coordinating Council’s Eagle Award, Hodges believes in prosecuting public corruption, cracking down on gangs and urban crime, and supporting law enforcement in its efforts to protect all Georgians.
