Rula Hardal & May Pundak are leaders w/A Land for All — a Palestinian/Israeli initiative grounded in shared human values & lived reality.

As we close out 5785, they joined us today to cry out against the destruction of Gaza, and to imagine, despite everything, a shared future.

An American citizen and Los Angeles native, @seiucalifornia @seiuusww President David Huerta was injured and detained when ICE terrorized a working neighborhood. We demand his immediate release!
Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing.

ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him.

We're outside the for-profit ICE detention center where our union sibling Rümeysa Öztürk is being held unjustly, simply for expressing her beliefs. No one should be locked up for exercising their rights. Free Rümeysa and all those unjustly detained! #4the1st

Writing an op-ed is not illegal activity. They are revoking visas for thought crimes and for constitutionally protected expression.
State Department spox Tammy Bruce just blatantly lies and says that students are getting visas revoked for "illegal activity" (Rumeysa Ozturk was not charged with a crime)

RFK Jr. as HHS Secretary? A conspiracy theorist with no respect for science or public health has no place overseeing Medicare, Medicaid, or the CDC. SEIU healthcare workers fight everyday to save lives—we won’t stand silent as lives are put AT RISK.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community.

You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
