Friday, 3:00 PM - Stop the Cuts Solidarity Rally at the Marshall University Student Center #StopTheCuts

Please join me and @wvunitedsu in calling for the Governor and Legislature to fix WVU’s artificial deficit. These cuts would be devastating for ALL WVians, not just WVU.

[Sam Brown Petsonk @Sam4WV]

Let's look at what has actually happened with WV #coal employment under #WVGOP rule this past decade. We shifted from stable underground & surface jobs to lower-wage, insecure, non-union, independent contractors.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

BREAKING: 11,000 Los Angeles City workers who make the city run are on strike for the first time in over 40 years.

The workers of @SEIU721 are striking today over the city's refusal to bargain with them in good faith.

[Nicole McCormick @MusicalMtnMomma]

To all workers everywhere: Your labor belongs to you. You are selling minutes of your life, so you decide whether to give or withhold your labor. Know this, believe it to your core, and make sure all your coworkers know this, too. Solidarity ✊️

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Every American should have a guaranteed income to meet their basic needs like food, healthcare and housing.

[Sean M. O'Brien @TeamsterSOB]

The benefits that UPS workers currently enjoy are due to @Teamsters who have fought for them over the years. Not because UPS is generous. If they were generous, we’d have a deal by now. #PayUp

[Nicole McCormick @MusicalMtnMomma]

Educate, Agitate, Organize, and Strike. Strikes work!

[Starbucks Workers United @SBWorkersUnited]

Poydras street in New Orleans became the second store in the city to unionize today, in an 11-5 vote!!

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Speaker McCarthy wants to take away nutrition assistance from 1.2 million women, infants and children while giving a $1.8 trillion tax break to people who inherit over $1 billion. That socialism for the rich, rugged individualism for the rest ideology is beyond unacceptable.

[Kim Kelly @GrimKim]

This is the best Bandcamp Friday ever!!!

[Steven Greenhouse @greenhousenyt]

Starbucks has given raises & benefits to its non-union workers & denied them to its unionized workers

Petitions to unionize have fallen off a cliff ever since. This policy is discriminatory & illegal. But the NLRB hasn't pursued an injunction to stop it

"Enough is enough, we all came together and decided to strike to make sure we have a safe place and a good work environment for everyone!”

Workers at Constellium Automotive (UAW Local 174, Region 1A) are striking after weeks of the company refusing to bargain in good faith.

To any Teamsters who deliver around the Providence area, there are picket lines set up at multiple RISD locations. Please exercise your right to honor them and do NOT in any way, attempt to cross. For UPS’ers in particular, there is a “strike” option when you hit non-deliver. This school is sitting on hundreds of millions of dollars of land endowment and are claiming it’s not “fiscally responsible “ to pay their workers 20 dollars an hour. Get educated, RISD and do what is right. #Teamsters251 #Solidarity #RISD

[Students Demand Action @StudentsDemand]

We can’t keep living and dying like this. We won’t accept school shootings as normal. Organize a walkout at your school on April 5th: https://t.co/t34Zgo8PKS

[Sean M. O'Brien @TeamsterSOB]

They say the definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly while expecting a different result…@Sysco should know by now, when you f**k with @Teamsters, we’re not putting up with it. Get your act together & bargain fairly. Until then, we’ll see you out front.

THIS is last year's Christmas card from Tennessee Rep. Andy Ogles, a Republican who represents the district that Covenant School is in in Nashville. #tnleg

ALEC- American Legislative Exchange Council

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Republicans will force a 10 year old to carry her rapist’s baby to term, let a 6 year old carry a gun, permit a 12 year old to work an 8 hour shift in a meat packing plant and allow a grown man to marry a 14 year old with a Judge’s consent, all while telling us that the reason they’re banning drag queens, gender affirming care and books about Rosa Parks is because they want to ‘protect our kids.’

Bullshit.
