Happy birthday to @DoloresHuerta! She is a living legend that has continuously advocated for the rights of farm workers, women, and marginalized communities.
We thank her for being en la lucha, and paving the way for future generations of Latinos in the US!
Happy 94th birthday, Dolores! When I was a young organizer, reading about @DoloresHuerta’s life and work showed me what was possible. As one of America's great labor and civil rights icons, Dolores has devoted her entire life to advocating for marginalized communities. She knows the power of community organizing, and through the Dolores Huerta Foundation, she continues to train and mentor new activists and organizers. She also came up with a pretty good slogan, “Si, se puede.” Yes, we can.

Workers, including myself have been stuck at the Tyson Fresh Meats plant in Holcomb, Kansas since noon today. Deeply disappointed that another corporation has placed the workers in danger by not cancelling work for the day. #labor
