Notice his shift to unions

… first they came for the immigrants…then they came for the trade unionists…

[Liz Shuler @LizShuler]

The nearly 15 million working people of the AFL-CIO and our affiliated unions demand the immediate release of @SEIUCalifornia President David Huerta.

The labor movement stands with David and we’ll continue to peacefully demand justice for our union brother until he is released.

The fascist feds think they targeted one man, but they don’t really understand what they’ve done

I just signed the @cftunion letter urging my Congressional rep to VOTE YES on repealing the WEP/GPO. Time to end this unfair penalty on millions of teachers and public sector workers. Congress votes on Tuesday, Nov. 12. So please join me! #HR82 https://t.co/Ds4Z36lUgI

BREAKING: We asked 488 Waffle House workers whether they had experienced various forms of wage theft, including working off the clock, not being paid for all hours worked or tasks performed, not receiving overtime, and more.

The results are damning.

[Teamsters @Teamsters]

The Amazon Teamsters campaign to organize the trillion-dollar company is expanding every day.

Amazon workers are marching on the boss in New York to demand Amazon recognize their union and negotiate a Teamsters contract.

[Amazon Teamsters @amazonteamsters]

Workers at Amazon's KSBD airhub in San Bernardino, California are continuing to hold management accountable for our safety with dangerous wildfire smoke from the Line Fire in and around our warehouse. @ieamazonworkers

[Teamsters @Teamsters]

Costco claims to be a “worker-friendly” company, but the truth is that corporate management seems more interested in crafting misleading letters than negotiating a fair contract that includes card-check neutrality.

Costco Teamsters have a clear message for management: if you truly value workers then prove it, not in a letter, but at the bargaining table.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

NEW: Alabama is farming out incarcerated people to work at hundreds of companies, including McDonald’s & Wendy’s.

The state takes 40% of wages and often denies parole to keep people as cheap labor.

Getting written up can lead to solitary confinement. This is modern day slavery.
