Actors’ Equity Association, the national labor union representing theater actors, stage manager and other workers in live entertainment, has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States and Governor Tim Walz as her vice president.

In a lengthy statement, Al Vincent, Jr., executive director of Actors’ Equity Association, made the union’s case for the endorsement:

“Vice President Harris has prioritized the needs of workers her entire career. Over these last few years she has played a vital role in President Biden’s staunchly pro-labor administration. We are excited for her, along with Governor Walz, to accelerate that momentum to enact policies that honor and protect all Americans. We need everyone to ride this momentum, too, and raise Vice President Harris into the presidency this November.
