The blue wave is union-made. Working people voted in massive numbers to take power back from the Trump admin and its billionaire allies, hold wealthy elites accountable, and build the economy we deserve. This is our country. Tonight, we took it back. aflcio.org/press/releases/af…

ATU 689, ATU 1300, and DC Labor filled a bus and knocked doors for Janelle because Scott Perry’s attacks on DC autonomy and public transit are unacceptable!

We stand in solidarity with the DC public sector union workers as they fight for their hard earned wage increases.
These workers keep DC running, and have gone two years without a raise. It's time their salaries reflect the work they put in.
Early voting in Maryland has begun! Workers are ready to fight for an economy, a government and a country for the people, not for billionaires. Join us as we take our country back. Go to BetterInAUnion.org/vote to make a plan to vote.

Shit’s too expensive, and working families are falling behind while bosses make record pay and bonuses. This November, we have a chance to make our voices heard, and take this country back for working people.

The Senate is about to vote on the union-busting Protect College Sports Act, which would undermine college athletes’ power while letting the NCAA and athletic conferences set the terms and conditions of work.
The AFL-CIO and its Sports Council urge Senators to reject this bill.
Metro Washington Council AFL-CIO retweeted
The Protect College Sports Act would deny college athletes the rights they are owed as workers and cut off any path they have to advocate for themselves, all so the NCAA and conferences can consolidate money and power. The Senate must reject this bill.
