About Us

Fair Shot Texas PAC is a statewide coalition of community leaders, organizers, and grassroots union activists across Texas. We are Texas neighborhood school teachers, local government workers, hospital workers, CPS workers, plumbers, electricians, other skilled trades workers, and more.

All across Texas, working people are coming together like we did in the past to demand that our elected officials put our families first. That’s why we’re working to elect candidates up and down the ballot and in every corner of our state who will stand up and deliver for our public schools, job training programs, higher wages, paid sick days, and healthcare for everyone.

It’s time to act. It’s time for change. It’s time for a fair shot for working families.

“Working people of Texas are demanding change. Clinging to yesterday will no longer fly. Voters raised their voices at the ballot box for a different and better agenda. We want priorities placed on laws, now and in the longer term, that provide working families a fair shot at better lives.”

—Texas AFL-CIO President Rick Levy
