It really can’t be emphasized enough: reposts help a LOT. They are genuine, REAL support. This isn’t Twitter, where links out, images, and self-promo get buried. Word-of-mouth matters here, it makes a genuine difference.
Luckily, algorithms don't play a big role on this website ✨ Reposts are the best way to help your favourite accounts to reach more and more people! 💕

Proud of my home state for standing up and pushing back. Keep up the good fight, Hoosiers!! ✨️💙
Indiana’s Senate has voted AGAINST the GOP gerrymander that’d have locked in a 9-0 map.
This keeps the 7-2 map in place, saving two Democratic seats heading into 2026.
The vote failed big, 19/31.
The MAJORITY of the GOP senators opposed it!

Today is the 4 year anniversary of our first union victory! Since then, we've won over 650 union elections.
It's been 4 years without a contract, and 4 years of union busting. That's why we're on day 26 of our national ULP strike - and we won't back down.
