In the workplace, a child will learn valuable skills they can’t apply elsewhere. At public schools, they learn to hate their parents and the very things that make them free.

After much pushback, OSHA now says they will require employers to report COVID-19 cases among their workers to the agency. The AFL-CIO and others hammered the Trump admin over this and said their initial guidance was crazy. Background here:
NEWS: Amazon spent more than $14.2 million on anti-union consultants last year, new Labor Department filings show.
I've never seen another company disclose spending anywhere close to that in a single year.
This is beyond unacceptable.
Working people should never be physically assaulted for exercising their right to strike.
We demand accountability from
@FairmontMiramar
for this sickening violence against

The General Board of the AFL-CIO voted this morning to endorse
@POTUS
Joe Biden and
@VP
Kamala Harris for re-election in 2024, the earliest presidential endorsement vote in AFL-CIO history.
Here's why ⤵️
BREAKING: New polling conducted by
@GBAOStrategies
reveals 88 percent of young Americans support labor unions.
We've said it before and we'll say it again: Gen Z is on track to become to most unionized generation in American history.
“It is the policy of the United States to encourage union organizing and collective bargaining” found in an Executive Order signed by
@POTUS
@JoeBiden

The labor movement, the AFL-CIO and the nation lost a legend today. Rich Trumka devoted his life to working people, from his early days as president of the United Mine Workers of America to his unparalleled leadership as the voice of America’s labor movement.
👏 Doors are officially OPEN for today’s
#LaborForBiden
event!
2,000 union members are expected in attendance to speak and hear from
@POTUS
!
Tune in at 2 p.m. ET at !

✊🏽 Freshmen, hit us up. Let's talk about how to lift up working people together.🌹

STARBUCKS’ HUGE STREAK OF UNION-BUSTING ILLEGALITIES — In 48 out of 49 cases they’ve decided so far on Starbucks, the NLRB’s labor law judges found that Starbucks was guilty of anti-union illegalities.
Tomorrow Michigan will officially no longer be a union-busting "right to work" state. Collective bargaining rights will be restored for public school employees and so much more.
This change happens when we mobilize & elect lawmakers who fight for us up and down the ballot.
LISTEN: Michigan union members have taken over the statehouse where the Senate is expected to vote to 👏 REPEAL RIGHT TO WORK 👏 later today.
WE ARE THE UNION, THE MIGHTY MIGHT UNION!

Writers are the backbone of this industry.

See this crowd?
These are teachers. Construction workers. Electricians. Actors. Culinary workers. Government employees. & More.
These are UNION members all under one roof, rallying & having a conversation with

We take care of our own.
Let's be clear: Donald Trump is going to a NON-UNION facility tonight in Michigan.
This visit, just like all his promises to working people, is a farce.
Meet childhood hero of mine
@BillNye
. Why he's striking: Nowadays people talk about the gig economy. If you're a guild writer or a screen actor, you're a gig worker your whole career. This is about fairness. These are regular people that work for a living... 1/2 🧵
"I think you've got an all time record here. You've made more misstatements in a short period of time than I've ever heard...If I'm worth $8 million dollars, it's news to me!"
