Historic. Ecuadorians voted to keep oil underground in the Yasuní national park in the Amazon, result of over a decade of movement pressure. A climate, enviro & Indigenous victory. And they voted to ban mining in a UNESCO biosphere in the country’s north https://t.co/0ZHMW8wRo7

BREAKING: 97% of the University of California's 48,000 academic workers have just voted authorize a strike.
This was largest strike authorization vote ever taken by academic workers in the US, and would be the largest strike so far of 2022.
While national news focuses on San Francisco, if you really want to know where California's headed - look at the East Bay. Home to nearly 3 million people (3x the size of SF), it's a window into the future of America's suburbs & non-superstar cities. And the future is bright. 🧵

Idk who needs to hear this but the left housing position includes building 12 million units of social housing in ten years. There’s literally a national tenants movement called #HomesGuarantee pushing that. Omar introduced a bill; it was in Bernie’s platform.
The @nytimes just announced they will honor Juneteenth, Veterans Day, and Indigenous Peoples' Day for non-union employees only.
This is a new low in union busting designed to scare our @NYTGuildTech colleagues before they vote in their election.
We will fight it, and we'll win.
