HISTORY MADE! The Rideshare Drivers’ Union Bill passed both chambers and will now head to the Governor’s desk to be signed into law. 100,000 drivers can now form a union and collectively bargain for higher wages, safety protections and more!
CEOs and Wall Street are cheating workers. Companies undervalue our work, weaken our power and replace us with robots. The only way to fix this gigantic gap and protect our jobs is by building more unions.🌹✊

🚨BREAKING: @32BJSEIU Members Authorize Strike of 34,000 NYC Residential Building Service Workers 10,000 32BJ SEIU members rallied on Park Avenue today and voted to authorize their Bargaining Committee to call a strike if a fair contract is not reached for 34,000 NYC residential building service workers by midnight April 20. The homes of 1.5 million NYC residents would be impacted by a strike. While the thriving real estate industry continues to enjoy record high rents, high property values, and historic low vacancy rates, 32BJ SEIU members are falling behind due to the rising cost of living. We are fighting for the wages, healthcare and pensions we need to support our families and create a future we can look forward to. We reject employer proposals to shift costs to workers and undermine our union contract. @MannyPastreich 32BJ President: “Our power is in the buildings! Our power comes from what we do every day for over 1.5 million New Yorkers in the buildings 32BJ members service. And it is right here. It is here 10,000 strong! It is here in the streets!”
Thank you to our allies who showed up to pledge support for the NYC residential building service workers!
@32BJSEIU We Don't Play💜

We’re going on offense. We’re not waiting for things to get bad. We’re organizing now.
Talk to your coworkers. Build with each other. Look out for one another.
That’s how we protect each other and that’s how we win. #OrganizeTheSouth#UnionsForAll
