To recap, the Republican Party is against:
-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Tax increases on corporations & the rich
-The expanded Child Tax Credit
-Student debt relief
Doesn't sound like the party of the working class to me.
Let me congratulate the 221 Members in the House for taking on the greed of the rail industry and voting to guarantee 7 paid sick days to every rail union worker in America. It is absolutely unacceptable that rail workers have ZERO paid sick days. The Senate must do the same.
The last time we stood with @Teamsters Local 202, we stared down a national food crisis over resistance to a $1 raise.
Back then, railroad workers stood with us. They turned trains around to not cross a picket line.
We won then, and we can win now.
Let’s get these sick days 💪🏽
Own a piece of Road America, but you need to hurry because a limited quantity of cores will be taken from the track prior to re-paving in October. Just click the Paddock Shop (link in bio) for details and to purchase.
