Working people didn’t knock doors and cast votes just to change the names on Congress’s office doors.
We did it to change what we can afford, how we’re treated on the job and who our government answers to. That’s the mandate.
Congrats to State Rep. Kim Townsend for flipping State House District 36 to represent Anderson, Chesterfield, Edgewood, Markleville, and Country Club Heights!
Harlan, 1973. Virginia, 1989. Omaha, 2021. Working people have always had to pick a side. Pete Ricketts picked his a long time ago. Which side are you on?
Last week, our General President Jimmy Williams Jr. went on Morning Joe to discuss next week's midterm elections.
Working people are struggling right now and they're sick and tired of politics as usual. The labor movement is going to continue organizing around the issues that matter to our members, and we're going to make our voices heard on Tuesday, November 3rd!
A new poll has our race TIED🔥
With just under two weeks until Election Day, our campaign continues to surge. I'm motivated by the enthusiasm and turnout we've seen since early voting started, and we're keeping up the energy every day until the polls close.
Victoria Spartz accusing our campaign of using AI imagery in our ad is another desperate attempt to distract voters from her corruption. https://t.co/FwgRJ31mYj
ICYMI: "When GM is spending $20 billion buying back their own stock but only half that investing in factories, equipment, and productive capacity, they are choosing Wall Street profits over blue collar America." — @ShawnFainUAW

Workers aren’t asking for luxury. We want some breathing room so we can actually live instead of barely making ends meet.
Everything is too expensive. We need elected leaders who will create an economy that works for all of us, not just billionaires.

This race between Republican Spartz and state Sen. J.D. Ford is heavily in play.
It's a huge deal that national Republicans are having to spend money here.
AFL-CIO President @LizShuler:
“Working people wanted change, and they wanted someone who will fight for them. And that’s exactly what @JamesTalarico will do.”
Out of 92 counties in Indiana, Trump’s DOJ has chosen 2 counties with the largest populations of Democratic voters and Black and Hispanic voters to subject to “election monitoring.”
It’s no coincidence. It’s also no coincidence that it comes just weeks before an election, when Trump has record low poll numbers. It follows multiple, illegal attempts to change election procedures for his benefit, from a president who still maintains the 2020 election was stolen.
Our elections in Marion County are still run by the clerk, who is elected by Marion County voters.
I’m urging everyone to vote as soon as possible. You can vote early at the City-County Building now or at additional locations starting this weekend, which can be found at https://t.co/AKy1sSrItt.
There are so many threats to our right to vote because of how powerful our vote is. Make your voice heard. Vote now.
60 million Americans would join a union if they could. Weak labor law and lawbreaking employers have become the central impediment to workers having the freedom to form a union.
Strong labor laws don’t happen by accident. Through sustained engagement with Ohio lawmakers, the UA helped pass the E-Verify Worker Integrity Act — protecting workers, improving jobsite standards, and supporting fair competition.
Big news: a federal judge blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to end TPS for more than 350,000 Haitians. That’s a win for workers who live and work here legally and keep our communities running. This fight isn’t over, but this is a victory.

#BlackHistoryMonth is a time to honor the trailblazers and barrier-breakers who fought for racial justice — and a reminder of the work we have to do.
Listen to AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer @STRedmond’s thoughts on the 100th anniversary of Black History Month:
This Black History Month and every month, NABTU honors the generations of Black American and Canadian leaders whose perseverance strengthened our unions, advanced fairness on the job, and expanded economic opportunity across North America. We remain committed to diversity, equity, and building pathways into family‑sustaining careers.
