EXCLUSIVE: I spoke with Medieval Times workers about why they want to unionize their castle. What they deal with is nuts: guests spooking the horses, grabbing the falcon, even putting their hands on the queen. They want better pay and safety -- and respect https://t.co/haZroRXkM5
No one should have to go three years of bargaining to earn a living wage and rights as an employee. Good luck to @azrepublicguild at the table today! ✊🏻
Today, we're back at the bargaining table with @Gannett to present a new pay proposal that includes minimum salaries and raises based on years of experience, plus much-needed cost-of-living increases. 🧵
Yesterday, I was joined by Donyale Whitaker of @UHLocal25, Aaron True of @AfjUnion and @WTUTeacher educator Clare Berke to talk about the AFL-CIO's latest polling data on the "Great Resignation" — or as we're calling it, the "Great Resurgence."
Today we joined an important conversation hosted by the @AFLCIO about the increasing number of nonprofit staffs that are unionizing. Take a listen to our shop steward Aaron True and learn more about their polling on the "great resignation": https://t.co/JhuBfDCnnW

Greater worker power is key to our vision of a just society. We fight for it each day.

Oh, and the best part? Our contract includes some of the best nondiscrimination protections in ANY union contract that is already being used as a starting point for many other unions. Want to use it for yours? Our DMs are open. ✉️
