I’ve stood with @apwu.bsky.social President Mark Dimondstein in collective bargaining fights and at rallies. He’s a champion not just for postal workers but ALL workers.
It’s been an honor to work with him. I look forward to working with President Smith to fight for postal workers!

The Trump administration is canceling infrastructure projects across the country, raising our energy bills and locking thousands of workers out of the jobs.

This video is devastating. Imagine dropping your child off at daycare, only to learn that ICE took a beloved caregiver in front of the children minutes after. Imagine going to work to care for beloved children, only to be ripped away from them and your own family by ICE.

The NLRB is one of workers’ only paths to workplace justice when their rights are violated. The AFL-CIO and OPEIU filed this motion to make sure working people aren’t being silenced, and that the law works to protect our freedom to join a union. aflcio.org/press/releas...

Getting out the vote is one of the most uplifting things you can do as a union member, knocking on doors, making phone calls, and letting other union members know about the candidates who stand with workers. #ElectionDay
