The National Taskforce on Tradeswomen’s Issues

Big win for tradeswomen and gender equity in the workforce!
Thanks to the powerful advocacy of tradeswomen and allies like @juliesulabor.bsky.social and @rbreich.bsky.social and countless others, the USDOL has released critical WANTO fund. This is a huge victory!

@USDOL is threatening protections for women & excluded groups in high-wage construction apprenticeships! 😱 Removing anti-harassment training, outreach, & discrimination reporting makes it HARDER to succeed. @secretarylcd, we need STRONGER protections! #TWTF #WomenInTheTrades #WomenInApprenticeship

Tell @USEEOC to protect all workers rights! Latinas suffer from pay discrimination, workplace harassment, and wage theft. The EEOC must return to its mission to root out these practices and Congress must hold them accountable.

Thank you @aflcio.org and @lizshuler.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to share my story at #TWBN about how joining @iuoe.bsky.social changed my life, my sons, and my community and given me a voice as an Indigenous woman in the trades! #betterinaunion #twbn2025 #unionpride #indigenouspride
I’m so proud of Jessenia. Her IUOE journey is inspiring—and shows how a union apprenticeship can uplift entire communities with life-changing pay, benefits, retirement security and more.

It’s #BetterInAUnion!
A trade apprenticeship changed Jessenia's life—now she's building community and power with Indigenous tradeswomen across the country.
