The former Pittsburgh Post-Gazette workers who went on strike for 3+ years, only to have the owners sell their paper and fire most of them, have started their own cooperative news org. Important reporting by @maximillian_alv https://t.co/lHsB7Ja1o6

"The United Auto Workers called for a ceasefire in Gaza. The union’s federal monitor didn’t like it—and now he’s investigating Shawn Fain, just weeks before union elections." https://t.co/uHQLY5MOWW by @ellafanger

Tariffs are the leverage. Public health rules, climate policies and protections from Big Tech are the targets.

Last year, @sarahlazare examined how Trump turned trade policy into a global protection racket.

Very random question but I'm wondering if anyone can help me. I'm trying to cite this document about the Lucas Plan and am having a hard time funding a date for publication. Anyone know? Thank you! https://t.co/5fLL95vlBc

"We found that 23% of Americans with disabilities say global warming is harming their own health 'a great deal' or 'a moderate amount'" https://t.co/z0p8RJgZK2

"A labor watchdog is requesting an investigation into a Minnesota nursing home due to concerns about transparency regarding union avoidance activity." I learned a lot from @EscalonaReport's reporting here. Give it a read! https://t.co/PdeYERNfo8

800+ BP refinery workers in Indiana have been locked out for four months, as the company attempts to cut pay and jobs, undermine workers’ ability to strike, and tear the local away from national bargaining. @sarahlazare talked to the workers.

FWIW, climate activists fighting for a just transition have a real opportunity here to build solidarity with these workers against a common enemy. BP creates terrible, dangerous working conditions, and now is locking out 800 workers in Indiana. https://t.co/kVwOoIQzCr

[Sarah Lazare @sarahlazare]

Locked out operators who have been up since 4am checking in picketers at the hall. A refinery worker who suffered severe burns yet is showing up to picket. Workers who staff the pantry with diapers and formula for those who had babies during the lockout. This is a fierce battle.

BP refinery workers in Indiana have been locked out for 126 days. They say they are fighting for the survival of their local, USW Local 7-1, against a company that is trying to "starve us" and break the union's power. Workers are picketing 24/7. My latest. https://t.co/kVwOoIQzCr

Nurses at Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation addiction treatment center in Center City, Minnesota are on strike. Their employer has considerable assets, yet is denying them a first contract. Critical reporting by @amiestager and Matthew Cunningham-Cook. https://t.co/GYze4AVo6G

Seems like we should be pooling our resources to figure out how to stop hazardous smoke from engulfing cities where millions live, rather than funding wars that unleash death and destruction and also worsen climate change, contributing to said hazards. https://t.co/tQsJ0fcHS0

[Sarah Lazare @sarahlazare]

The smoke in Chicago is so thick you can see and smell it and we all have to stay inside as much as possible. Seems like this ought to be a bigger deal politically. I fear the creeping normalcy of climate destruction.

[Sarah Lazare @sarahlazare]

Detroit News obtained a recording of a call between Shawn Fain and Neil Barofsky, the federal monitor, in which Barofsky criticizes UAW's statement calling for a ceasefire and, among other things, tells Fain to read an NYT column by Bret Stephens. https://t.co/RcUDD1g01G

.@EscalonaReport has stayed on this niche-but-important story about the use of AI to monitor bus drivers in Rochester, MN. There's been a big development: the city council voted to dump the management company that was contracting AI surveillance. https://t.co/uSKS9YZfCF

Update: Since I published this, it's been confirmed that the Elbit factory in Ladson, SC is also making bomb components, and those components are being shipped to Israel via the Port of Charleston. Credit to Palestinian Youth Movement and Oxfam Denmark https://t.co/F0X7EcKgV6

I spent my May Day in Ladson, South Carolina at a picket of a factory belonging to Israeli weapons company Elbit. The plant makes munitions that Israel is using in Lebanon, where it has killed more than 2,500 people in the past 2 months. Here's my report. https://t.co/3JpA76GqSa

I joined Brian Lehrer on WNYC today to talk about Cleanup on Aisle Five and everything that customers don't see behind the scenes at the supermarket.

ICE killed a man in Biddeford, Maine today, and then continued to terrorize the community, according to the Maine Immigrants’ Rights Coalition and Presente! Maine. The orgs say that after the killing, calls kept coming to the hotline reporting ICE activity https://t.co/YKPrVChzhw
