[Colin here:] I am SO proud of the members who came out to our FIRST informational picket yesterday. We’re only building from here, and as Commissioner Vasquez said today, you were really brave to speak out publicly. Thanks for all you do!

Great to be out with @704afge.bsky.social today at the protest against cuts to NIOSH, OSHA, and the CDC.

We signed two agreements with management today; one on “return to in-person work” and one on compressed work schedules. Collective Bargaining making a difference in our lives!
