Wait for the electrician. 💀 Awesome.

A 1929 colorized video of construction workers on the Chrysler building in New York.

At 1,046 feet it is the tallest brick building in the world with a steel framework, and was world's tallest building for 11 months after its completion in 1930. https://t.co/cGBf1fr0fK

Truth.

[Abby Finkenauer @Abby4Iowa]

Did you know?

@ChuckGrassley went to DC 46 years ago & turned his back on unions & their hardworking members like my Dad. His repeated votes against prevailing wage provisions that literally put food on our table, are inexcusable.

And he’s FINALLY going to be held accountable

[Abby Finkenauer @Abby4Iowa]

This is great news!! I couldn’t be more excited about Iowa and how our ticket could shape up going into 2022. So much work left to do for families across Iowa and also for our democracy. Let’s get it done.

[Liz Mathis @LizMathis1]

The reports are true: I am running for Congress in #IA01. It’s clear Iowans want leaders who care about fairness, honesty, and putting service ahead of politics. That is why I am running. Together, we can flip this seat blue. Let’s get to work!

[Abby Finkenauer @Abby4Iowa]

My heart broke today listening to this testimony. Brave members of law enforcement put their lives on the line to protect our democracy. The idea that anyone would downplay that day or vote against investigations & hearing this testimony is absolutely reprehensible.

[Abby Finkenauer @Abby4Iowa]

I'm Abby Finkenauer, and I'm running for U.S. Senate because Iowa—and our Democracy—are worth fighting for.

After 46 years in DC, @ChuckGrassley has lost touch with both.

I'm from a proud union family. We don't back down. I'm in this to win.

Eight years ago when I was in Congress and @BarackObama was President, I would have reflexively railed against him for saying this. Now I agree with him. And thank him for saying it. Because now I understand it. Barack Obama has always gotten it. He hasn’t changed. I have.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

In the wealthiest country in the history of the world, a higher education should be a right for all, not a privilege for the few. If we are going to have the kind of standard of living that the American people deserve, we need to have the best educated workforce in the world.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

There's likely to be about half a dozen more Esco calls for tonight, again for Cargill.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

Check out our website calls page regarding a large project in Pennsylvania.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

Awesome. Wire it Union.

[Francis X. Suarez @FrancisSuarez]

Count me in! No brainer...we would love to be the prototype city.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

Iowa City short call for Tri-City tonight.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

Anyone interested in becoming a steward, contact the hall and we'll get you signed up for stewards training.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

There are two Tri-City calls for a Wednesday start. Working for John Lane finishing up the Hilton Gardens Inn in CR. Should last about four weeks with some OT.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

We have have a couple open calls, lots of OT.

[IBEW 405 @405Ibew]

[IBEW @IBEW]

From our #IBEW family to yours. Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving.

[Abby Finkenauer @Abby4Iowa]

Introduced a bill I’ve been working on for awhile “Building Back American Manufacturing Act” today. Happy to have @ConorLambPA join me & commit to reintroducing in the 117th Congress. Strengthening buy American provisions & supporting good paying jobs is a mark I hope to leave.

[Abby Finkenauer @Abby4Iowa]

This complete lack of respect for working people, my constituents, and utter disregard for their lives is abhorrent & yet not surprising from the company that led the way to gut workers comp in IA & then got immunity during COVID from GOP-so easily bought. https://t.co/WMfzuLxoAG
