Angie Nixon crushed her Morning Joe interview
"I've unseated incumbents before.
I've been outspent 5 to 1 and I did that while I was nine months pregnant with COVID.
Y'all, I'm not nine months pregnant anymore and I definitely don't have COVID.
So y'all know I'm going to work hard as I can and that is how I'm going to win.
And that is how I know that Ashley Moody will be calling me Senator in November."
32BJ SEIU strongly condemns the termination of Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for the hundreds of thousands of Haitians who have built lives in this country. As a union with a majority immigrant membership and thousands of Haitian members, we stand in solidarity with all those affected, which includes not only our Haitian members and their families, but also the millions of people they serve in airports and downtown offices, and the communities to which they belong. 1/3
While this administration has declared open war on working families, immigrants, and basic human dignity, we stand UP for workers and justice. That’s why I stand with my brother David Huerta and will work until every family is safe from fear. #JusticeForDavid
With a record 81.8M travelers & more on the way this December, we’re working nonstop to keep airports safe, clean, & moving. We love getting you home for the holidays, but we need a living wage to survive the affordability crisis!

With airports packed for Thanksgiving and an even busier December ahead, we’re working around the clock to keep travelers safe. All we’re asking for is a living wage that meets the realities of today’s affordability crisis!
We’re demanding $25/hr for airport service workers because our families depend on it, not just financially but for the time we get to spend with them. @CityofPhoenixAZ & @MayorGallego, it’s time to step up.
Airport workers at @CLTAirport, @DFWAirport, and @PHXSkyHarbor are keeping holiday travel moving, yet many of us still face an affordability crisis that leaves us struggling to afford basic needs like food. That’s why we’re demanding a real path to a living wage!
“We need a $25/hr to ensure that we are able to provide for ourselves & our families. I’m a single parent of two sons. I constantly worry about how I’m going to pay for rent, bills, medication and groceries. And I’m not alone.” Nicole Ray, @PHXSkyHarbor
The federal minimum wage is $7.25.
The cost of Panera Turkey & Cheddar Sandwich is $10.29.
It is not a radical idea that an hour of work is worth more than a turkey sandwich.
Shawn Montgomery, cabin cleaner @CLTAirport, keeps passengers safe every day yet struggles with basics like keeping the home cool during extreme heat. Charlotte City Council must act now and raise standards to protect lives!
There's no way on God's green earth that this man should have all these burdens with a good job. We stands with you and will support you no matter what because @32BJSEIU & @GoodAirports we don't play.💜

This #TeacherAppreciationWeek, we honor the educators who shape minds, open doors, and give their all to their students- often without the pay, respect, or support they deserve.
We stand with every teacher pushing for the resources and dignity they’ve earned.
