Anoka-Hennepin educators have spoken!

More than 98% of members voted to authorize a strike if necessary. No one wants to strike. This vote is about making sure the district takes seriously the need to reach a fair contract that supports educators, stabilizes schools & puts students first!

Nearly 10K MN's braved frigid weather to support our immigrant neighbors—because we care for our us and show up for each other. We supported small biz on Lake marching in solidarity—Black, white, Native, and newcomer. Hate has no place in MN! We are #GreaterThanFear.

The holidays can be stressful, but remember: it costs $0 to be kind to the retail and service workers who make the holidays happen. Here’s a list of UFCW 663 grocery stores so you can shop Union, and shop considerate.

Willian Giménez González, Chicago day laborer and beloved worker leader in Chicago, has been released from ICE custody. I spoke to him about his 47-day detention, and what solidarity looks like in this moment. "I owe my freedom to being organized," he says.
