UNION

Up against one of the most powerful companies on the planet, a group of Amazon workers embark on an unprecedented fight to unionize their warehouse.

There’s no better feeling than building worker power 💪

We’re organizing to win a Teamsters union contract to secure fair pay, safe working conditions, manageable workloads and more.

Every right we have on the job — weekends, overtime, safety standards — we didn’t get by asking nicely.

We got by organizing.

And we’ll keep organizing until every worker is respected, protected, and paid.

Unions work. Strikes work. Organizing works. Solidarity works.

How should federal unions respond to Trump's push to cancel union rights for roughly 700K workers?

Seize today's media spotlight to call on hundreds of thousands of fed workers — & millions of other union members & supporters — to take to the streets on April 5

Then escalate

Trump administration moves to end union rights for many federal workers
This is NOT just about federal workers! This is about all of us. https://t.co/tv4oTamfL9

The worst thing that the federal government has done to unions in my lifetime happened last night.

Longtime farmworker organizer Alfredo “Lelo” Juarez was detained by ICE agents this week in what many believe to be retaliation for his organizing.

Here are three things you can do in solidarity: https://t.co/RFVmZr69A7

Sadly, the US Academy, which awarded us an Oscar three weeks ago, declined to publicly support Hamdan Ballal while he was beaten and tortured by Israeli soldiers and settlers.

The European Academy voiced support, as did countless other award groups and festivals. Several US Academy members—especially in the documentary branch—pushed for a statement, but it was ultimately refused. We were told that because other Palestinians were beaten up in the settler attack, it could be considered unrelated to the film, so they felt no need to respond.

In other words, while Hamdan was clearly targeted for making No Other Land (he recalled soldiers joking about the Oscar as they tortured him), he was also targeted for being Palestinian—like countless others every day who are disregarded. This, it seems, gave the Academy an excuse to remain silent when a filmmaker they honored, living under Israeli occupation, needed them the most.

It’s not too late to change this stance. Even now, issuing a statement condemning the attack on Hamdan and the Masafer Yatta community would send a meaningful message and serve as a deterrent for the future.

Union leaders nationwide are speaking out against the unjust detainment and threatened deportation of Mahmoud Khalil. An attack on Mahmoud is an attack on all of us — on free speech, immigrant rights, and the democratic freedoms every worker depends on.

NLRB member Gwynne Wilcox has been welcomed back to the board after a judge reversed her illegal firing by the Trump administration and ordered her reinstatement. The board now has a quorum again and can resume its work.

Big win for labor: NLRB member Gwynne Wilcox returned to work today, after winning her fight against Trump in federal court last week

With Wilcox's return, the Board now has quorum nationally

The Trump administration's decision to revoke collective bargaining rights from TSA workers is a direct attack on labor unions and workers' rights. https://t.co/Qu3BgW7K4v

Let’s talk about the fact that No Other Land and UNION can’t be seen by anyone because of no distribution. 2 of the most historic docs of our times released independently. The reason being they don’t want you to see it do the opposite. ✊🏽
