This International Workers Day, we will honor the historic struggles and successes of workers that came before us by fighting for respect and dignity, for ourselves and for our colleagues.

See you at the bargaining table ✊

Roses are red,
Common Cause's staff is united,
An organization can only defend democracy
If its workers are valued inside it. 💕
Thank you to our lovely members, who spent their Valentine's Day joining our bargaining session out of love for a better Common Cause!

We are devastated by the #MauiFires —worsened by decades of global fossil fuel burning & local political land use decisions.

Here are trusted funds you can contribute to, supporting community partners on the ground.

Give what you can. Mahalo.

How's this for a red flag: Today at the bargaining table, @Gannett proposed a starting salary that is **BELOW** the New York State minimum wage...

Starbucks fired 150 pro-union baristas and closed a dozen unionized shops.

Chipotle shuttered a store in Maine when workers tried to unionize.

Amazon spent $14.2 million on anti-union consultants in 2022 to stifle organizing.

Common theme: they're terrified of worker power.
