Pennie n Mark couldn’t throw me out of office with Section 22 charges or police, so she just bans me from representing members, bans me from her Executive Bored meetings. Basically , she has UNELECTED me

If this offends you, let her and the International President know!

Here’s something you may not know exists at the CTA: Single, CTA workers that do 40+ hours a week, but depend on Medicaid and Food Stamps.

Join me and others at the NO LAYOFFS of Public Transit Workers! protest

I am going to Go!

Thank Heavens, no police were called in the crashing of this parade. I don't mean to be a pest, but my coworkers and I deserve to have #PaidSickLeave AND Short-Term Disability, just like the CTA president. We definitely don't deserve to be punished and fired when we get sick.

Hate me if you want, but Trxmp has nothing to do with our responsibility to take control over our communities, schools and workplaces.

Neither does any other elected dope in a suit.

After almost being jailed for defying a juvenile, dictator union president yesterday, this showed up on my phone…

Peppermint Pennie and Tobacco Man Warden at their Business Union Bullshxt Again: Kicked out by the Cops! 🤣 The CTA mismanagement is pleased with their Local 308 president!

I spend most of my waking hours with men and women who struggle for dignity in service to the people of Chicago. Despite our differences, we move this city. That's a family. Any manager who harms them, harms me. There is no exception.

We are invisible. Many riders don’t know what we are experiencing.

I FINALLY finished my post-hearing briefs for those grueling ULP charges. The burden on my mind was really weighing me down. Seven hours. Seven pages.
