BREAKING: We just demanded union recognition at KSBD -- Amazon's largest air hub on the West Coast! We've been organizing for years and today a majority of us came together to demand that Amazon recognize us as Teamsters and bargain a union contract!

Local 99's current Organizer is a former New Seasons worker, and is proud to see over a thousand of his fellow grocery workers ready to take a stand on Sunday! #nslu #onstrike

[cam @cam_inaction]

BREAKING: with an 82% yes vote of the @NSLU_PDX membership, workers are going on a one day strike at 10 of the 11 union represented grocery stores in the Portland metro area on Sunday September 1, according to the union’s Instagram.

[Musicians Union Local 99 @afm99]

Local 99 musicians do not tolerate replacement grocery workers during a strike. Stand with workers, not with the wanna-be monopoly, Kroger! #unionstrong #fredmeyerstrike

[KVAL News @KVALnews]

Day two of the Fred Meyer strike extended through the night, as dedicated picketers affect store operations. Claims of labor law breaches add more tension to ongoing contract negotiations.

Can confirm. @DBtodomundo is meeting with Senators today about passing the American Music Fairness Act, legislation to require AM/FM radio stations to pay artists for playing their songs on the air.

#DidYouKnow @iHeartRadio’s 860 radio stations make $2 billion in advertising a year, yet refuse to pay artists performance royalties when their songs play on air? Artists deserve to be paid for their work. We need #MusicFairness.
