Nearly 5,000 security officers are fighting for a fair contract in Seattle & King County. @MLKLabor has sanctioned a strike if necessary amidst ongoing contract negotiations. #SolidaritySeason #StandForSecurity

Minnesota family: our Somali sisters, brothers, and siblings are being targeted because they’re building real power and bringing folks together. We’re not letting ICE or DHS pick us off one by one. An injury to one is an injury to all. @SEIU26 #GreaterThanFear

Christine Le Jeune, a Port Washington, Wisconsin resident, was roughly dragged out of a data center hearing by police. She was testifying against a $15 billion Oracle and OpenAI data center campus coming to her town.

The president is doing what he does best: deflecting. He is attacking the Somali American community to hide the fact that he has failed to deliver on nearly all of his promises. But we are resilient and, despite the president's disgusting remarks, we will continue to thrive.

Black, brown, immigrant, citizen: the divisions they want don’t stand a chance when we stand side by side. What happens in North Carolina, Atlanta, or New Orleans is our fight too. When any one of our neighbors is threatened, we show up. We protect each other. #OrganizeTheSouth

Trump is kidnapping and disappearing immigrants of all legal statuses into for-profit detention centers, denying them legal access, and subjecting them to awful conditions. 200+ judges have ruled against his actions, and I’m introducing legislation to fix this broken system.

These SNAP changes aren’t about “helping people work.” They’re about drowning poor folks in paperwork until they give up. If you work a register, a night shift, or two gigs, you shouldn’t have to beg for groceries. newsweek.com/snap-benefits-m…

This week’s #WeaselOfTheWeek is Campbell’s Soup exec Martin Bally caught on tape saying he wouldn’t eat their own products, calling them “crap for f‑‑‑ing poor people,” and claiming they use bio-engineered meat. This is how corporate execs really talk when they think no one’s listening. Profiting off food they’d never feed their own families and firing the worker who spoke up. We see the greed. We’re naming it.

These aren't "holiday costs." 30-50% hikes on basics, because new tariffs raise prices at every step of the supply chain. Are the companies going to absorb those costs? 0% chance. The working class gets squeezed yet again by politicians and corporations.

This is how workers can win.
Solidarity with @Teamsters , who sanctioned our strike nationwide and won't be delivering food, picking up trash, or bringing packages across picket lines! ✊🔥 #NoContractNoCoffee $SBUX

It’s just a circle.
The venn diagram between jobs that complain no one wants to work anymore and jobs that pay $12 an hour is just a circle #UnionsforAll

Apple is anti-union. Tesla is anti-union. Amazon is anti-union. McDonald's is anti-union. Starbucks is anti-union. Google is anti-union. Walmart is anti-union. These mega-corporations aren’t on workers’ side and their actions make it painfully clear.

David Huerta is back in court TOMORROW because this administration thinks attacking one labor leader will silence millions. They’re wrong. We don’t bend, we don’t bow, and we stand with David today and always. Justice for David. ✊🏿

The "Department of Government Efficiency" has disbanded eight months early. DOGE sowed chaos throughout the government and disrupted services relied upon by millions, while finding hardly any savings. Here's what you should know about damage that DOGE leaves behind.

I went to immigration court in Seattle to observe the kids docket. These children, some as young as three years old, are expected to understand complex legal processes and represent themselves in court. That’s not due process.

The crisis of affordability is a crisis of debt. Public goods that are so costly and expensive that we're going into debt for things that are free in other nations — education, health care, school lunch, expensive rents, even going into debt for our own incarceration.

Workers in all industries have more in common with each other than the executives making millions. Solidarity with everyone who is not crossing the line or buying Starbucks while we’re on a ULP strike! Special thanks to @Teamsters, for not crossing the line and standing with us✊

Yesterday in Cleveland, Local 1 members joined the Low-Wage Worker Roundtable to share their experiences and concerns about wages, workplace protections, and fair treatment. The gathering provided a platform for workers to make their voices heard.
