Today in labor history: August 1, 1938
In Hilo, Hawaii police used tear gas, bayonets, and riot guns to violently attack 200 unarmed peaceful union protesters, injuring 50.
The Hilo Massacre was a calculated act of anti-union repression.
This is labor history.

A union card turns hard work into real opportunity.
It’s a trade with pride.
It’s college without debt.
It’s a path with power.
It’s a lifeline.
That’s what a real opportunity looks like.
UNIONS keep the American dream alive.

While energy demand soars for #AI and #datacenters, the Trump admin is attacking clean energy.
They’re driving up #energy costs, slowing innovation, and killing thousands of #LiUNA jobs.
It’s dragging America backward in a race we can’t afford to lose.

Immigrants commit violent crimes at far lower rates than U.S.-born citizens.
Mass deportations don’t fight crime, they instill fear and divide the working-class.
This isn’t justice. It’s class warfare.

Union jobs don’t just build projects, they build middle-class lives.
They’re how a parent puts food on the table.
How dignity is kept on the jobsite and in the home.
How a kid from a working-class family gets a shot.
They build futures.

Their crime? Daring to organize.
Their trials? Bought by coal bosses.
Their execution? A warning shot to every worker who ever fought back.

#DavisBacon wages don't just pay our members better. It's an important tool to prevent non-union contractors from undercutting our signatories & exploiting construction workers. Without Davis-Bacon, it would be a race to the bottom, with only unscrupulous contractors winning. #LIUNA

Prevailing wage is the real local rate—wages, benefits, and training—that must be paid on government-funded projects.
No undercutting. No shortcuts. Just fair pay.

“Pro-business” in Texas means:
No water breaks in 100° heat
No paid leave
No required workers’ comp
Wage theft unchecked
Amongst the worst wages and conditions
Creating jobs doesn’t mean anything if you treat workers like they’re disposable.

To the fathers, like mine, who taught us to work hard and stand for what’s right:
Thank you.
The best dads don’t just pass down tools or toughness.
They pass down a belief that no one should struggle alone.
That dignity and strength are meant to be shared.

In June of 1912, Massachusetts passed the first minimum wage law in the country.
It wasn’t perfect, but it was a start.
Progress comes when working people get organized and demand it.
Keep fighting. Keep building the future.
Don’t let anyone tell you it can’t be done.

11 years married to my best friend.
We’ve grown, chased adventures, supported each other, and somehow look better now than we did back then.
Grateful for her love and strength—and for making it possible for me to fight for working people.
Happy anniversary. I love you.
