DC SAFE Union

We are the staff of DC Safe, the District's only 24/7 domestic violence crisis intervention agency! Organized with @OPEIULocal2 ✊ [email protected]

[DC SAFE Union @UnionDCSAFE]

🎉 It's official! 🎉

With 90% of staff voting in favor, WE WON OUR UNION ELECTION TODAY!

We'll be taking some time to celebrate, reflect, and refuel, but we'll be back in a few short weeks as our staff bargain for higher wages, transparency & better working conditions!

[Defenders United @defenders_staff]

Today, a supermajority of @Defenders staff announced the formation of our union, #DefendersUnited. We want to work with management to create a stronger, more equitable, and more effective organization. Unfortunately, @JClarkPrez took only 3 hours to reject our request outright.

"Ninety-two percent of domestic workers are women, and more than half are women of color. The typical domestic worker is paid just $12 per hour." #FightFor15 https://t.co/260e1JF1El

[NACCHO Union @NacchoUnion]

"The National Labor Relations Act ... said what we should encourage unions..."

and "there should be no intimidation, no coercion, no threats, no anti-union propaganda [from employers]."

We couldn't agree more. We stand with:

@BAmazonUnion
@AlabamaAFLCIO
@RWDSU

@ftsguild Thank you!!

Today, we officially elected our colleagues to serve as our bargaining committee and shop steward representatives. What an incredible day to be union members 🥰

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Workers in Alabama – and all across America – are voting on whether to organize a union in their workplace. It’s a vitally important choice – one that should be made without intimidation or threats by employers.

Every worker should have a free and fair choice to join a union.

Let’s 👏 get 👏 that 👏 contract 👏

Congratulations, @UnionDCSAFE!! 🎉

[Nonprofit Employees United @NonprofEmployee]

90% of employees at DC SAFE, a domestic violence crisis intervention center, voted YES on their union. They’re joining @OPEIULocal2 and OPEIU’s Nonprofit Employees United. This was a hard-caught victory!

[DC SAFE Union @UnionDCSAFE]

@KindLAUnion thank you so much!

[ACLU of Kansas United @ACLUKSUnited]

When a boss forces a representation hearing, it means they want to argue that some workers don’t have the right unionize.

It’s union busting, plain and simple.

Shame on @LoriTFreeman! Time to recognize ALL her workers right to join @NacchoUnion!! #UnionStrong

[DC SAFE Union @UnionDCSAFE]

Sending big love to our friends over at @NacchoUnion 💪 Watching nonprofit leaders like @LoriTFreeman show their true colors is so incredibly disappointing, especially when NACCHO staff SHOULD be spending all their time supporting local health depts in...a pandemic. Yikes, Lori!

[NACCHO Union @NacchoUnion]

📢 breaking news 📢 NACCHO CEO @LoriTFreeman is trying her hardest to bust our union! Today, we're headed to a hearing at the Trump NLRB where NACCHO management is trying to exclude nearly 60% of eligible staff from our union. Yeah, you read that right! More →

"Advocates are incredibly compassionate people who made the decision to dedicate their careers to serving others. I wholeheartedly support unionization, as a union will ensure that there is someone to advocate for them."

Share why YOUR support our union! https://t.co/PYkoXEYWa9
