It’s outrageous that Elon Musk thinks he has the authority to access private data on workers. He has NO business raiding the Department of Labor.

With this lawsuit, we intend to stop this power grab.

Union asks judge to block Elon Musk's DOGE from Labor Dept systems
One of the largest U.S. labor unions asked a federal judge on Wednesday to block Elon Musk's government cost-cutting effort from accessing the Department of Labor's systems, which the union warned could give the billionaire sensitive information about investigations into his companies.

and who’s going to do something about it?! Seems none of the elected people have the guts to stick up to him. Seems it has to be us…..the Unions. #1U
Remember when Trump’s campaign team denied ties to Project 2025? Now he’s signing directives straight from its pages - gutting antidiscrimination protections and silencing workers who speak out. This agenda targets the very people who keep our country running.

Thank you!
A farm worker sent us this pic from where they are harvesting carrots in Santa Maria. It's hard difficult work. We're on our knees most of the time on the cold damp soil. In addition, I don't live near the field and I have to drive an hour to work. #WeFeedYou

Has Trump lowered the price of groceries? No. Instead, he's focused on renaming the Gulf of Mexico.

Today, my colleagues and I gave him a list of things he could do right now to start to lower the prices of eggs.
Democrats slam Trump for not making good on promise to ‘immediately’ lower food prices
“During your first week of office you have instead focused on mass deportations and pardoning January 6 attackers,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren and 19 other lawmakers told the president in a letter.

Because Elon Musk was going to train ….. oh wait, he’s not…… we should have known! Like he needs more money……

Thank you @gretchennewsom.bsky.social for always fighting for us and doing the right thing.
Talk about irony! The world’s richest man, who relentlessly criticizes California and government funding, sought $599K in public tax dollars to train Tesla workers—only to withdraw the request today. #Hypocrisy #CaETP
