Thank you @Kristin4Indy for speaking up for the workers struggling to pay their bills and take care of their families at the expense of @IndianaGrand: “this is why I fight every day. I will not give up.” #1u@IUOELocal399@unitehere23
Talking successes and challenges of the first #PathToPower year. 10 out of 13 union members of the inaugural class were elected statewide. Let’s keep the momentum going! #1u
Thank you Mark for giving an update on the #IndyJanitors fight at our meeting last night.
Update: @SEIULocal1 was able to ratify a successful contract to include wage increases, paid sick days, and the opportunity to bargain again in three years.
This is democracy working!
Having health insurance doesn't mean anything if you can't afford to use it. If you worked at @braun4indiana's company, your family would have to pay an outrageous $10,000 deductible before being covered for anything. https://t.co/nUlzLZw7IJ
This afternoon the Northeast Indiana AFL-CIO and @JoeforIndiana greeted workers at the Dana plant in Ft. Wayne and urged them to vote their pocket book on Nov. 6th!
It’s important that we send Joe back to the US Senate so he can keep fighting for working families! #1uVote
It’s absolutely unacceptable what some people have to go through to get noticed in the workplace just to be able to receive #livable wages. #Healthcare#paid time off. When we stand together with these men and women we will win! #Solidarity
Lifting Indy out of poverty starts with paying workers a living wage. That's what Local 1 janitors are fighting for in their new contract. Current janitors make as little as $9.75 an hour and struggle to support their families. Together #WeRise for good #union jobs for Indy!
Just a quick reminder that we will be celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Fort Wayne Firefighters this Saturday! Please stop by our hall between 4pm and midnight to enjoy some free food,... https://t.co/ZWyoPgTRHM
Standing with these men and women and hearing their stories challenges me to a greater level of SOLIDARITY shoulder to shoulder with my brothers and sisters from SEIU local 1 until they get #Livable wages. #Affordable healthcare. #Paid time off.
Clarence has been homeless for a month because he doesn’t make enough money to live on his own. When he could not find anyone to split rent with, he was forced out of his home and onto the street. Thank you for sharing your story today Clarence. #WeRise for livable wages!
