The Amazon Teamsters are fighting hard for their first contract! You have a chance to help!

Next Tuesday, show some mighty solidarity and join them on the steps of San Francisco City Hall (Polk Street side) to demand that Amazon come to the bargaining table now!

I joined Teamsters Local 191 on the picket line over the weekend to show my support for their fight to recognize the union they voted for in July for fair wages, benefits, safety & the respect they deserve.

Connecticut Distributors must bargain in good faith with these workers.

On the picket line with striking nurses at Henry Ford Genesys Hospital in Grand Blanc demanding safe staffing ratios.

Too many patients per nurse = unsafe care for YOU.

We stand with you, Teamsters 332 ✊

It’s not complicated. If your nurse is juggling too many patients while you’re in the hospital, it’s that much harder to keep you safe.

This is exactly why the Commissioner does not want publicly traded companies to own teams. They do quarterly reports to shareholders and revenues keep going up. Teams keep earning larger profits and are not sinking them into player salaries. It's not just the Braves.
@EvanDrellich tweeted
The Atlanta Braves' revenues are up 12 percent through the first six months of the year. Terry McGuirk said the team could have added payroll at the trade deadline.

“What we have built in Atlanta is the model that every other MLB franchise is chasing"

Most people don’t know this, but Colorado is still an anti-union right-to-work state with outdated laws on the books designed to silence workers.

Governor Polis could change that by signing SB5. Please call him and encourage him to do so:

Protecting the collective bargaining rights of workers isn't a partisan issue. We thank Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick and all the House Republicans who are urging President Trump to reconsider his executive order eliminating federal workers' collective bargaining rights.

Barnes and Noble workers have won a historic first union contract at the company.

Workers organized with @rwdsu.bsky.social just ratified their first union contract at three NYC locations.

The contract brings the minimum wage up to between $23.00-$25.00, improves healthcare, and more.

I have read the email from OPM. It is not what has been reported. IT IS NOT A BUY OUT.

It is an exemption from the partially unenforceable return to the office EO until end of the Fiscal Year. You may have to work every single workday until the end of the FY. No guarantees. All discretionary.
