For generations, Native American workers have led movements for justice.

We honor the Indigenous leaders who have taught us what resilience looks like and we carry their fight forward in every act of solidarity.

Baristas are saying it plain: #NoContractNoCoffee
SEIU stands shoulder to shoulder with Starbucks workers demanding respect, fair wages, a real contract, and an end to union-busting.

Sign the pledge:

Cute…
You know what else would be cute?
If Starbucks agreed to fair wages and hours.

GOOOOD morning y’all! And what a good morning it is! All across the nation, working people organized, and WON. Let’s keep up this energy, let’s go get it!

A message for all of you:
Thank you for being in this fight. Tomorrow is election day, let's go get it.

I am proud to stand with California workers fighting for Prop 50 because we’re not waiting for permission to protect our power. We are DONE letting Trump redraw the rules while working people pay the price. #YesOnProp50

I’m here in New Jersey with the powerful workers of @1199seiu.org saying loud and proud “LET’S LAND THIS.”

We are proud to stand beside @mikiesherrill.bsky.social for governor of New Jersey. ✊🏿

Our healthcare is on the line.
Our labor protections are on the line.
Our LIVELIHOODS are on the line.
That’s why, this November 4th, it is beyond important to get out and VOTE.

Looking a lot like trickle-UP economics, don’t y’all think?

They blame immigrants. They blame trans people. They blame anyone but the billionaires breaking this country apart.
But we see through the noise. We know our fight isn’t with each other, it’s with the system that keeps us divided. @replsimon.bsky.social

Today is the day. This is what democracy looks like.

Where are you? And what are you chanting? #NoKings

This is how authoritarianism takes root. Criminalizing those who stand up for their people. David Huerta didn’t commit a crime. He defended his community from an out-of-control government. I stand with David Huerta.

Every headline, every layoff, every cut, it’s all about power. Who has it and who they’re trying to take it from.
But here’s the truth: we are the power.
When workers organize, we stop the wheel, we rewrite the rules, and we don’t ask permission. @replsimon.bsky.social

I told my SEIU Latino family last week: I don’t know when we’ll win, but I know that we will.
Because when we move together, dream together, and fight together, nothing in this world can stop us.
Let’s keep building that power. ✊🏿💜 #LatinoHeritageMonth

From every corner of this country, SEIU Latino workers are rising up, organizing, leading, and building power. The energy in these rooms? Unstoppable. #LatinoHeritageMonth

This Saturday, the people are showing up in numbers too big to ignore. This #NoKings protest will be one for the history books, because when working people unite, no crown, no billionaire, no self-proclaimed ruler can stop us. seiu.co/OCT18

You can’t heal what was designed to harm.
This system wasn’t built to serve us. But now, as it’s breaking, it’s our job to rebuild it. From the ground up. For all of us.
Thank you for the conversation @replsimon.bsky.social ✊🏿

Every worker benefits from a union.
Whether you type code, balance books, or clean offices, collective power means job security, fair pay, and a voice that can’t be ignored. #UnionsForAll

In a moment when our democracy feels fragile & our freedoms under attack, 32k home care workers in Michigan are giving us something powerful: hope. These powerful workers fought, won & took back their union. Congrats to the workers w/ MI Home Care Workers United & @seiuhcmi.bsky.social #UnionsForAll

Dark days don’t scare us. They prepare us. Thank you @crockett.house.gov for reminding us, the systems that were built to break us are crumbling, and it’s our chance to build something new.

After a decade of relentless organizing, gig drivers in CA just made history. With #AB1340 signed into law, drivers now have the RIGHT to form a union, bargain with Uber & Lyft, and win real power on the job. This is what worker-led change looks like. #Unions4All #CAgigunion

Last week it was my honor to present @jasmineforus.bsky.social, @kamlager-dove.house.gov, @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social, and @replamonica.bsky.social, with the 2025 Bridge Builders Celebrating Black Leadership in Congress Rising Star Awards. They are inspiring our nation. #WorkerPower

The Trump Administration is threatening to fire thousands of federal workers. Thousands of Americans left without jobs. WORKERS ARE NOT YOUR PAWNS.

Elected officials must come to an agreement that puts working people first. Raising health care costs to fund tax breaks for billionaires is unacceptable.

Y’all, we are closing out #CBCALC2025 and I could not be more proud. SEIU and our labor family showed up strong all week—building community, lifting up our power, and reminding everyone that this movement isn’t slowing down.
