What Unemployment Benefits Are in the COVID Short-Term Partial Relief Bill? @EvermoreMichele explains all the new pandemic UI provisions. https://t.co/qQUoR81S7s #ExtendUI #MoreReliefIsNeeded

An absolute must-read. "Waterloo was, in many ways, primed for an outbreak, and the reason lies in its history, which reflects the meatpacking industry’s dramatic transformation over the past half century."

[ProPublica @propublica]

Waterloo was the site of a historic battle for labor rights and racial justice. But as the meatpacking industry changed, the workforce lost its power and was primed for an outbreak. This is how we got here. https://t.co/ffYjsbZyQ5

THREAD. After months of demands by people across the country to #ExtendUI and more - a short-term relief bill was passed by Congress. It’s far from enough, and in the new year we will demand they provide more support to ensure a #JustRecovery. Here’s what’s in the new bill...1/9

Had a good discussion with @BillFletcherJr
& @RebeccaDNELP on @DissentMag's always good Belabored podcast, by actually-know-their-topic @sarahljaffe @meeshellchen

[National Employment Law Project @NelpNews]

Although the Congressional deal yields temporary relief, it falls far short of the #JustRecovery workers are demanding, and includes painful compromises.

NELP will start 2021 continuing to fight for real #COVID19 relief. Statement from @RebeccaDNELP: https://t.co/qe3ChSs8bs

Fast food workers in NYC demand #JustCause protections against discriminatory and arbitrary firings -- they need our solidarity as they build power and workplace democracy -- excited for just cause momentum!

[National Employment Law Project @NelpNews]

It's time for #JustCause to protect NYC fast food workers from unfair and discriminatory firings!

This majority people of color workforce is fighting for their right to speak out at work without threat of firing: #PassJustCause #ServingUpJustice
