SO SATISFYING. Amazon will soon post to all tech & warehouse workers nationwide: "WE WILL NOT discharge you for raising work-related concerns..." "WE WILL pay Maren Costa and Emily Cunningham the wages and other benefits they lost because we fired them." #ClimateCrisis #COVID

A riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it that America has failed to hear? That the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And that white society is more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice, equality, and humanity. MLK Jr 1967

COVID-19, like the climate crisis, disproportionately impacts low-wage workers, people of color, indigenous peoples, and the health-compromised. As we begin to repair, we need to start with those populations FIRST.

As many Seattleites are told to keep logging on from the safety of home, workers in Yakima are being shouted at to get back to the front lines. It's a study in how the pandemic is widening class divides, columnist Danny Westneat writes.

4/ Being able to speak up—and speak openly—about serious life/death issues should never be constrained by some corporate gag rule. The ruling today proves that it is not only necessary, but it is legal, to stand up and speak up when we see injustice in the workplace.

Seattle City Council District 1: Maren Costa @marencosta "...focusing on a candidate’s values often is a good indicator of where they will land on issues we care about. As an environmentalist and organizer, it’s hard to argue with Maren Costa’s values."
