Child care providers, parents, and advocates are packing the halls of Congress this morning to remind Republicans that the real crisis facing our sector is a lack of funding.

Rather than manufacturing scandals & funding freezes, lawmakers should be working to #FundChildCare!

Here’s an interesting fact we should all know: From 1975 to 2023, $79 trillion in wealth was transferred from the bottom 90% to the top 1%.

Quick PSA: Most corporations don't use their tax cuts to create jobs, give back to society, or lower costs. They just give their CEOs more money.

Reminder: The problem is corporate greed. The answer is solidarity.

🚨San Francisco public school teachers are on strike, demanding fair wages and strong health benefits.

Educators are saying what’s been true for forever: you can’t have strong public schools without supporting the people who make them work. https://seiu.co/4rfR7Tq

Meta just poured $65 million into pro-tech super PACs — funding candidates who align with its agenda and using big money to shape elections and policy.

That’s corporate power influencing politics, not helping workers or lowering costs. https://seiu.co/4qiyXit

Walmart just became a trillion-dollar company, joining the ranks of corporate giants at the very top.

Meanwhile, some Walmart workers start as low as $14/hour, and thousands still rely on SNAP & Medicaid to get by. That gap isn’t accidental. It’s a choice about who this economy is built to reward.

BREAKING: Workers at Volkswagen’s Chattanooga plant just secured a landmark union contract — a major labor win in the South!

This historic win shows what’s possible when workers organize: higher standards, real protections, and a stronger voice on the job.

Amazon saved about $7 billion last year under Donald Trump’s new tax law.

We remember: Amazon donated to Trump’s inauguration and his White House ballroom. This is how power and money keep circulating at the top — while workers and consumers are told there’s nothing left.

Walmart just surpassed a $1 trillion market value.

Yet many Walmart workers are paid less than a living wage and rely on public assistance to survive, meaning taxpayers subsidize corporate profits. The math doesn’t add up.

The Trump Labor Department wants to cut costs by taking minimum wage & overtime away from home care workers.

That puts more than 3 million workers at risk of losing basic protections. It’s not reform — it’s cruel, anti-worker policies that punish the people giving care. https://seiu.co/45YHa4i
Caregivers for the elderly could lose wage protections under Trump proposal
The Labor Department has proposed rescinding an Obama-era rule that gave home care workers the right to overtime pay and other wage protections. The administration says the rule made care too costly.

Donald Trump said Americans wouldn’t pay for his tariffs.

The reality? 96% of the costs were passed on to American consumers and businesses. Higher prices, more pressure on working people — just lies and broken promises. https://seiu.co/4rDttzR
Study finds Americans shouldering 96% of Trump-era tariff costs
New research shows Americans pay 96% of Trump-era tariff costs, adding $1,400 yearly to households while failing to boost manufacturing jobs.

At a moment when many in the Latin community are living in fear, Bad Bunny uses the world’s biggest stage to amplify voices that are trying to be silenced. 🖤
February 9, 2026 at 2:00 AM
As Latin communities face harassment, raids, and intimidation, Bad Bunny reminds the world that Latin voices, language, and lives still matter — even when power wants us quiet.
February 9, 2026 at 1:30 AM
While many in the Latin community are being terrorized, targeted, and made to feel unsafe, Bad Bunny steps onto the biggest stage and makes millions feel seen. This is more than a performance — it’s representation when it matters most.

How is anyone supposed to pay:
$1,500 rent
$1,000 groceries
$400 insurance
$350 car payment
EVERY MONTH while making less than $17 an hour??? WE MUST RAISE THE WAGE!

So coffee is up 20%.

Ground beef is up 15.5%.

Meanwhile Republicans in Congress are giving $75 billion to ICE as costs for “household staples are soaring,” new data shows. https://seiu.co/4kH0Tvz
Grocery price inflation is picking up, defying Trump's claims. Here's why.

This #BlackHistoryMonth, Somali families in Minnesota are being targeted, detained, harassed, and injured under the Trump administration.

That's Black families being subjected to violence for being Black.

Black history isn’t just something we remember, it’s being written right now.

The number of people currently in ICE custody is now over 73,000, the most in history.

Your reminder that ICE is a for-profit industry and the companies profiting are huge donors to the politicians who voted to continue funding ICE.

The federal government is anti-union.

Dollar general doesn't recognize unions.

Amazon is anti-union.

Waffle House is anti-union.

Starbucks is anti-union.

Google is anti-union.

Walmart is anti-union.

Let’s be clear: This administration and its mega business allies are not on your side.

💔Absolutely heartbreaking. Four women are dead after being deported under the Trump administration. Their deaths were preventable and this responsibility lies with this administration.

Safety is a human right.

We need pathways to legal status, not deportations.

Corporate profits are at historic highs, while workers’ wages as a share of the economy are at historic lows.

Now bosses are pushing layoffs and AI replacements, even as they sit on record profits. That imbalance isn’t sustainable and working people know it.

The reality is that 2,000 ICE agents will still be able to terrorize MN communities. So we will keep peacefully standing up for our families and neighbors. Because under this administration it’s clear that we must have each other’s backs. Our demand remains: #ICEout!
