Every union in America could build a student loan assistance fund like ours in @UAWRegion9A. Education is a human right, like healthcare & a just retirement. It's a core labor issue. Debt is the biggest boss there is. Let's fight it. /3

Entering month 6 of the Mamdani mayorship of NYC and Robberies are down 11%, Retail theft is down 19%, and Murder is down an astounding 21%.
And he did so without "Adding 5000 new cops" to the streets. Instead, he's invested in public safety with free childcare, accessible infrastructure, and better funded schools and libraries. He's proven once again that if we want safer communities, we must invest in People—not Punishments.
🔵 UAW has endorsed Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan's U.S. Senate race, giving the progressive Democrat backing from one of the nation's most influential labor unions.
I am told that this ad, featuring Zohran Mamdani teaming up with Brad Lander, Darializa Avila Chevalier, and Claire Valdez, aired during tonight’s NBA Finals game between the Spurs and the Knicks.
7) it was clear to me Conrad is simply an exceptional candidate. His candidacy is a momentous opportunity to fundamentally redefine what’s possible for Harlem and PEOPLE SAW THAT. It was my best turf of the cycle so far.
We also got to talk about a few video games. Awesome.
Most unions don't let rank & file members participate in their endorsement process. They aren't transparent. We're doing it differently in @UAWRegion9A. And that's why our slate is full of union member candidates like @claireforny@ConradforHarlem@DarializaforNY@david4queens
is there a reason why unions never seem to endorse the more pro-worker candidates? I’ve noticed they almost always go for the more establishmenty candidates
@SallyGold@MichaelLangeNYC We're at a moment where lumping all unions together misses the power we're building on the left flank of labor in @UAWRegion9A. Our endorsement program is member-led, transparent, and all about winning for the working class with a slate of candidates who come from unions.
Espaillat said the same thing in his interview seeking @UAWRegion9A endorsement, threatening thousands of UAW members who live in district. It is poor leadership to divide your constituents instead of embracing an affordability agenda for all New Yorkers. GOTV for @DarializaforNY
@UAW stood with the Mayor when no other labor union was even thinking of backing him. Of course he's going to stand with us when we're sending @uaw members @claireforny and @DarializaforNY to Congress.
We received hundreds of submissions to our 2-K jingle competition, @Lin_Manuel and @iamcardib helped us choose the top 5, and now it's time for New York to vote on a winner. Head to https://t.co/NjuhJ87aZl to pick your favorite, voting is open from now until 10pm on 6/3!
NEW: Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has withdrawn as the Harvard Law School Class Day speaker, after the Harvard Graduate Student Union-United Auto Workers asked her not to cross its picket line.
@uybpham and @ClaireSimon report.

Karl-Anthony Towns reacts to not making an All-NBA team:
"It [speaks] to our team, we're selfless and we're willing to do whatever it takes for betterment of our team, our organization, and winning. It's a collective effort getting the job done every single night for New York."
