Voters in Greensboro, Durham and Chapel Hill elected their next City Councils last night.

And we are happy to share that in all three cities, a majority of the incoming councils said 'yes' to our pledge to stand up for their cities against attacks by the federal government.

We keep hearing about budgets and shutdowns on the news, but there are real-life consequences to the administration's attacks on working people in North Carolina...

Last night, district candidates in Durham heard from people that have personally experienced how actions by the federal government are impacting our communities.

Every day, it seems like more headlines come in about actions the federal government is taking. But the elephant in the room… or rather, in the workplace, at the check-out line, or at the back of the classroom is…

Cuts to education and to federal programs like Medicaid, which provide much-needed funding for K-12 schools, will leave teachers and staff less able to meet the needs of their students.

The cuts to federal agencies have left thousands of workers in the Triangle uncertain about how they will pay their bills, at the same time as the cost of living continues to go up for all of us.

Last Thursday, we joined Luis alongside members of the Duke community and Representatives Marcia Morey and Maria Cervania in calling on Republican leaders to take action to protect workers like Luis.

✊🏽 After Duke University threatened Luis with retaliatory action if we hosted a press conference at his bus stop yesterday, he spoke alongside supporters on 9th Street on the need to take action to ensure that he and workers like him can continue to be part of the community at Duke and beyond.

Luis is a beloved member of the Duke community and after nearly 20 years with the university he’s at risk of losing his job along with his TPS status.

Communities all across the country are taking action against Avelo and we need you to join us! By fighting Avelo, we’re showing we can take down those who look to profit off harming our people. We’re showing what’s possible when we organize together.

✨👩🏽‍🎤Yesterday, we delivered a message from the future to our state legislatures. Even though the Governor’s veto of HB 318 was overridden, a beautiful future is still possible for us. We’re going to keep working together and building power.

Back in May, Carrboro became the FIRST municipality to proclaim itself a 4th Amendment Workplace. For months now, members of Siembra NC and Make NC Work volunteers have been connecting with business owners across the state to defend the constitutional rights that we ALL have.

When bad bosses don’t pay up, Siembra organizes workers to fight BACK! We’ve recovered nearly $130,000 so far this year, fighting alongside workers that are standing up to assert their rights.

Last month in Torrance, California, a woman who was just getting her car washed recorded this interaction with federal agents. We want to highlight a number of things she did, that you should remember if you ever find yourself in a similar situation

👏🏽WE WON ROUND ONE! After thousands of North Carolinians asked the governor to stand up to the NC GOP’s push to deputize state law enforcement as ICE agents and expand HB 10, he listened, issuing his first-ever vetoes. But this isn’t the end.

The ICE raids are meant to make us feel helpless. But now, organizations like ICE Watch are empowering communities by providing tools and training to help people take a stand.
