@jbaileyky @jbaileyky you are one of our heroes.

@IUBAC @LCLAA We thank you for these kind words. We are so fortunate to have leaders like Rick Hernandez from BAC Local 4 step up to start and run a Kentucky Chapter of @LCLAA. Rick and many other union leaders have built a strong network of community advocates around helping the working class

On April 5th, America’s unions are coming together with allies of labor at events across the country to send a message: #HandsOff our unions and our contracts!

Stripping collective bargaining and union rights from workers across the federal government is the very definition of union busting — and a blatant attempt to silence us.

We will fight this outrageous attack on our members with every fiber of our collective being.

[AFGE @AFGENational]

☎️Grab your personal phone during your non-duty time and tell Congress to stop Trump's attempt to outlaw federal unions.

AFGE will never back down. And, we will never apologize for standing up for working people.

Stand up. Fight back. Walk-in!

This morning, union members and community allies stood alongside educators and students during walk-ins across Kentucky, showing up to defend public schools and the people who make them strong.

Watch out for more walk-ins through March 21 ✊

The Dept of Education helps kids get the quality public education they deserve. Gutting it jeopardizes their future and the future of public education across Kentucky.

Want to know how vital Dept of Education funding is to YOUR school district? We have a fact sheet for that.

On #InternationalWomensDay, America’s unions celebrate and honor the trailblazing women who have fought for workers’ rights and are leading the way in today’s labor movement.

Check us out! 💪 Thank you Governor Beshear for taking the time to speak with our UAW members at Working Families Lobby Day.

[Governor Andy Beshear @GovAndyBeshear]

I am always proud to stand with our unions. These leaders fight to ensure our workers make a good wage and live a good life. They are the backbone of our thriving economy, and I am thankful for them and their impact.

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

America’s unions are in the streets, in the courtroom, and the halls of government fighting for working people everywhere.

Working people over billionaires. Period.

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

Working people deserve a government that fights for them, not billionaires and bosses. That’s exactly why we need Gwynne Wilcox back on the independent @NLRB board!

[Kentucky Democrats @KyDems]

“I've lived the consequences of inadequate safety measures,” writes Rep. @KYAlGentry about HB 398, which House Republicans passed to eliminate Kentucky's workplace protections.

His powerful op-ed shows the dangerous reality behind this legislation.

HB 398 puts workers at risk and protects bad employers. Your voice matters. Stand up for workplace safety in Kentucky!

☎️ Call your legislator now and tell them to vote NO. Call the number in the graphic or click here to be put through: https://t.co/Sa99qV0d4C

[Kentucky AFL-CIO @aflcioky]

HB 398 puts Kentucky workers in danger. This bill strips away critical safety protections, making it easier for bad employers to cut corners and harder for workers to fight back.

Tell your senator to vote NO: https://t.co/e6HjYY2OWk

[Kentucky AFL-CIO @aflcioky]

🚨 HB 398 puts workers’ lives at risk. It would erase KY’s state-specific protections for workers— while hitting businesses with steeper federal fines. Workers deserve better, and we’re going to fight like hell to get it.

Working people built Kentucky. Don’t strip them of safe workplaces ⁦@aflcioky⁩ | Opinion https://t.co/J4290Ow06B via @courierjournal

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

All workers deserve to go home at the end of the work day safe and healthy. Workers need strong state and federal OSHA laws to make that a reality.

If you live or work in Kentucky, tell your legislators to vote NO on HB 398. https://t.co/i7rbJKKfet

The federal government is cutting its workforce, but Kentucky has 23,000 federal civilian employees--more people than work at Amazon, Ford or UPS. These jobs are especially significant in many rural counties: 1/
