Jessica Tang has been the president of the Boston Teachers Union since 2017.
The president of the Boston Teachers Union is setting her sights on the top leadership role of the group's statewide parent organization, the American Federation of Teachers Massachusetts.
AFT-MA is the smaller of the two statewide teacher unions — MTA, or Massachusetts Teachers Association, is the other one — representing more than 24,000 members in school districts such as Lawrence and Salem., Tang ran unopposed and was the first person of color, first member of the LGBTQ community and first woman in three decades to lead BTU.
As of Monday, Tang is running unopposed for the AFT-MA leadership role. A group of AFT-MA delegates appointed from each local union will be casting their votes on May 4, so there would still be time for others to make a bid.
