Trump’s executive order stripping bargaining rights from federal workers was union-busting—but we have the bill AND the votes to fix it. We urge every member of Congress to sign the discharge petition to get the Protect America’s Workforce Act to a vote. aflcio.org/press/releas...

It is actually nuts that even when the NYC political establishment was presented with a broad field of talented candidates w/ many ideas, in a time of generational change & anti-corruption, they STILL chose to line up behind scandal-ridden Andrew Cuomo.
It’s cowardice.

The Supreme Court’s decision to allow President Trump to fire NLRB and MSPB members is a gift to union-busting CEOs and a slap in the face of every worker. Workers deserve a fair shot to join and form unions, but the court has turned its back on them. aflcio.org/press/releas...
