Today, Machinists Union workers across Arizona, together through the Arizona State Council of Machinists, proudly endorse @rubengallego for U.S. Senate. Rep. Gallego has always advocated for hardworking Arizonans, and we thank him for cosponsoring legislation that will protect and expand workers' rights to organize.

Union labor built this country. It’s because of their blood and sweat we have the wages, benefits, and protections we often take for granted. On this #LaborDay, we celebrate the millions of union workers past and present who never stopped fighting for the rights they deserve.
In honor of @IAMAWWT's late Grand Lodge Representative, the IAM has proclaimed August 10 as Maria Santiago Lillis Advocacy Day: A Commitment to Serve (ACTS). The date marks Lillis’ birthday as a time to remember who we are as a labor movement.
We stand with the @AFLCIO family during this sad time.
Richard Trumka revitalized the labor movement and stood toe-to-toe against any enemy. He made life better for working people across our nation and the world.

In today’s #PROAct hearing, Sen. @PattyMurray put it best:
✅Unions mean higher wages
✅Unions mean better benefits
✅Unions mean safer workplaces
✅Unions mean you have others in your corner.

With the passing of Maria Santiago Lillis, the Machinists Union family has lost a Sister and a true activist. Her legacy lives on in the thousands of lives her work touched and all she did for working families. https://t.co/C6zpdkWsEf
"The safety and health of all the delegates and guests must be first and foremost. We will continue to work toward rescheduling the Convention in 2022,” said @IAMBobMartinez of the decision to postpone the 40th IAM Grand Lodge Convention until next year. https://t.co/yovt28k2x5
What would you say if we told you that being a Machinist union member, retiree or relative enabled you to go to college for free?
It’s true!
College is expensive but a clear path to the American Dream. Let the Machinists help with those first steps. https://t.co/ehrTGm2f1c
Proudly #MadeByMachinsts, the IAM has always advocated that the @thef35 program
🔷Keeps America safe
🔷Strengthens global partnerships
🔷Powers economic growth
🔷Creates good, union jobs
Many on Capitol Hill, from both sides of the aisle, agree. https://t.co/G6aQrwlL0Z
May Day: In the 19th century, #MayDay took on a new meaning, as International Workers’ Day grew out of the labor movement for workers’ rights and an eight-hour workday in the United States. We honor the hard work of Machinists Union members throughout North America.
