Can you really say that with a straight face when you used Alabama taxpayer dolllars to use state troopers to escort out of state scabs to break the strike of your hardworking @MineWorkers constituents fighting for a fair contract at Warrior Met? Spare me, Gov.
🚨 BREAKING: We just sent a letter to Apple Board Member Sue Wagner calling on the company to uphold their commitment to shareholders and center the voices of organized workers in Apple’s Workers’ Rights Assessment.
BREAKING: 190 workers at ZF in Tuscaloosa, Alabama are now ON STRIKE for a fair contract. These members of UAW Local 2083 (@uawregion8) supply front axels to Mercedes, and have been fighting for a fair contract that ends tiers, raises wages, and provides decent healthcare.
Autoworkers across the country are on the move!

Just had a great call w/ our UPS members. Over 25k Teamsters registered for webinar... 15 days remain. It’s time for @UPS to get off their ass & return to the table. @Teamsters are fired up & ready to go. Stay tuned America, but know this: we’re going to be victorious either way.
BREAKING: TEAMSTERS END 22.4, DEMOLISHING TWO-TIER SYSTEM AT UPS💥
During a hard-fought day at the bargaining table, the #Teamsters reached tentative agreement with @UPS on three major economic issues...

Absolutely they did! The treatment of the @MineWorkers by Warrior Met during this strike has been terrible. Warrior Met Coal violated labor law during Alabama miner’s strike, judge rules - https://t.co/osqBGsSbcs https://t.co/jxtZbqoiAS
Hey @WGAWest we know you��ve got your hands full but could we get some amplification about our four-month strike? That’s two of your members crossing our picket line in a week. #WritersStrike #UnionStrong
It’s official: the @Teamsters have authorized a strike (by a 97% vote!). If UPS doesn’t deliver the contract they deserve by July 31, 340,000 Teamsters are hitting the picket line. Let’s fuckin GO
The people that we were lucky enough to get to know each time the doors opened were worth it. The strike is over, but the fight for a contract is still going. We are still standing by those that fought. We’ll always have a union shaped spot in our hearts for each one of them.
That’s a wrap. We gave out the last pantry bag, shared the last hugs, locked the door, & left the light on. We didn’t expect to finish the strike & shut the pantry doors this way, but the the friendships,lessons,& all the care & love that was shared in this building was worth it>
BREAKING: 500 members of UAW Local 12 who make vehicle batteries for Clarios in Holland, Ohio, have walked out on strike after voting down the company’s latest offer by 98%.
These brave members are standing up for dignity on the job, a fair work schedule, and no pay cuts.
Performers at risk working with abused animals. Long-term spine and head injuries. Pay so low employee sleeping in car. Check out my @labornotes article on the Medieval Times Performers United (MTU) strike in Buena Park, CA. @MTUnitedCA @JAKEMBOWMAN #1u

Our thoughts are with our @MTUnitedCA union siblings who were attacked last night while on the picket line.
Violence in our movement is unacceptable. Period.
It's time for @MedievalTimes to not only condemn this assault, but stand with their workers fighting for a better MT.
This is just disgusting. The workers on strike at Medieval Times in Buena Park, CA have been on strike for over 50 days. I remember that time marker. It’s tough. I wish I could stand beside them in person, but cheering them on from the other side of the country! #solidarity
.@UPS’s piss-poor planning & unpreparedness does not constitute an emergency on the @Teamsters behalf during negotiations. This company has 12 weeks to either settle the deal or put themselves on strike. We’re not playing games, ball is in your court ⏰⏱️
