The Communication Workers of America, Local 3902 have announced their support of Artur Davis for Governor. The campaign says it's the first union endorsement for either side.  From their press release:

The Communications Workers of America Local 3902 represents approximately 2,500 workers in the Birmingham, Centreville/West Blocton and Shelby County areas. “More than anything, Alabama needs a governor who will stand up for hard-working families and work to get our economy moving again,” said Communications Workers of America Local 3902 President Rhonda Taylor. “Artur Davis has the integrity, the leadership ability and the vision to lead Alabama to a brighter future.”

Artur Davis welcomed the support of the communications workers. “I am pleased to have the support of the hard-working individuals who make up the Communications Workers of America Local 3902. As a congressman, I have stood with them to fight for a more fair, more secure workplace and I look forward to continuing that fight as Alabama’s next governor.” 

Davis has a good voting record on labor issues -- SEIU had some good words for him last year.
