I have always supported Union labor as part of my cultural heritage and political responsibility, but living in PGH for 10 years, I have gained a much deeper respect for the courage and sacrifice it has meant in the US just to be a part of a labor movement. It’s an easy thing to take for granted.
From rousing speeches to gun battles, the Pittsburgh region has seen some of the most notable moments in U.S. labor history.

We had great male role models. I’m not sure where we got lost, but Mister Rogers was the kind of man I hoped to grow up to be. When I fall short of being good and kind, his example is the reason I know it. Deeds, not words.

Turns out you can indict a ham sandwich, but only because they’re incredibly unpopular. Hoagies are much harder to indict. 🙃

Unspeakable tragedy. Also shattering for trans kids. The shooter’s ID is unrelated (beyond mental health, possibly), but will be the bullies’ battle cry. I ask decent adults to be anti-bullies, and protect those they can from the coming ignorance, and blame leveled at the trans community.
U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar heard from a former staffer whose children attend the school and who knows children wounded in the morning’s gun violence.
“One of the things that people nationally don’t understand is that this school is enmeshed in our community,” Klobuchar said.
