@HPBWorkersUnite for national HPB Union news!

[Half Price Books Workers United @HPBWorkersUnite]

Calling all Kansas City lovers of books and labor! Our union stores in KC are coming together for a rally next Saturday, February 22nd, to raise awareness of the constant union busting our booksellers have faced while fighting for a first contract for over a year now.

BREAKING: 1,300 undegraduate student workers at Macalaster College in the Twin Cities are unionizing as @macalesterunion.

If I could make regular Americans understand one single fact, it would be: If you do not have a union then you are always, always leaving money on the table. That money is then taken by rich people who don't do work.

Super excited to see the workers at PetSmart in Mishawaka have overwhelmingly voted to join UFCW Local 700. Welcome to the family!!!

Happy to see this guy on the news so much recently! Tim Walz has always been friend to labor, including when he stopped by our booth at the State Fair last summer to help us in our fight for a fair contract! ✊

“For too long my work has been dismissed as unskilled, and baristas like me disrespected and undervalued. But I’ve found the path to get the dignity and stable career I’ve always deserved — and that’s through a union.” https://t.co/ZnYOqvdjhq

[REI Union @reiunion]

This is an excellent example of worker power in action! Our coworkers in SoHo stood up for what they needed and kept themselves safe - all because of their powerful collective voice.✊

Congratulations and solidarity! ✊✊✊

Time for some THANKS!

We could never have gotten our first contract ratified without the support of the literary community; thank you to all these authors for speaking up and standing with us. Your support means so much! ✊📚
