After more than 3 YEARS on strike facing relentless union busting, @pghguild.com members at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have won!

This is a testament to the power that working people have when we stand in solidarity with each other.

HUGE NEWS: @pghguild.com members at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette have won!

For 3 years, workers showed incredible solidarity and strength in the face of relentless and gross union-busting. Now, a court has ordered their contract restored. https://bit.ly/484XIc6

6,666x

That’s how many times more Starbucks’ CEO makes than the average @sbworkersunited.org barista.

When you're in a union, you can show up as your true self every single day. That’s the union difference.

The Trump administration is canceling infrastructure projects across the country, raising our energy bills and locking thousands of workers out of the jobs.

It’s an attack on working families across the country.

Our message to the Trump administration is simple:

Enough is enough.

Fund the government.
Fix the mounting health care crisis.
Put working people first.
The Trump shutdown is now the longest EVER. Federal workers are locked out of their jobs or working without pay. Health insurance costs and prices on everything are spiking. Everyone is feeling the pain.

Fund the government.
Fix the health care crisis.
Put working people first.

With Elon Musk’s new $1 trillion contract, he could make $11.4 MILLION per HOUR for the next 10 years.

He’s not creating his profits, working people are!

The “Four Comma Club” shouldn’t exist. A union contract is how we start to level the playing field. https://wapo.st/47O88M4

Elon Musk spent his year inflicting as much pain as possible on America’s federal workers and breaking the essential services that working people rely on. 

And now he’s being handed a trillion-dollar paycheck on a silver platter.
 
Disgusting.

The shutdown is already hurting workers—now millions of Latino families could see their health costs double if ACA tax credits expire. Up to 1.3 million Latinos could lose coverage. Congress must fix the health care crisis.

Because the Trump admin and their allies in Congress refuse to extend the ACA tax credits, health insurance costs will double or worse for millions of families.

Nobody can afford for their health insurance costs to double, triple or worse. Millions of people will lose their health insurance and delay essential care.

Congress must extend the ACA tax credits and stop the health care crisis NOW. https://bit.ly/4qMCO94

The shutdown has gone on so long, we've run out of clever ways to say it, so we'll just say it: Federal workers have been locked out or working with no pay for over a month. The Trump admin and their allies in Congress must fund the government and fix the health care crisis NOW.
November 6, 2025 at 1:05 AM
This is the longest shutdown in history - a record the Trump admin should be ashamed of. Health insurance costs are skyrocketing. Millions of working people are losing food assistance. Trump and his allies in Congress need to put working people first.

This shutdown is now the longest in history, thanks to the Trump administration and their allies in Congress. They *could* fund the government and fix the health care crisis - but instead they’re prolonging the suffering of workers, just to break the Affordable Care Act.
