The Transport Workers Union demanded ⁦@SEPTA⁩ install bulletproof Bus Operator compartments on buses, and won. The pilot program starts this spring. “There’s no price on saving lives.” Philly is just the beginning! ⁦@TwuSamuelsen⁩

@transportworker @MTA @TwuSamuelsen Congrats brother!

[TWU @transportworker]

Giving back.
The TWU celebrates and honors MLK Jr. today with community service. We’re in Houston but our reach is national. We’re filling backpacks with supplies for 3rd graders in a low-income Atlanta community.

[TWU @transportworker]

Why organize workers into The TWU? To help them improve their livelihoods and better provide for their families. “This is what it’s all about,” @TwuSamuelsen said after @GoBrightline workers in Florida voted to join the union. “This is why we’re in this business.”

[John Samuelsen @TwuSamuelsen]

.@SeanDuffyWI should know that right after @GoBrightline workers voted to join @transportworker yesterday, the poxy bollix president of Saudi Arabian owned Brightline, Patrick Goddard, is suing to overturn the election. Another foreign corp attacking USA 🇺🇸 workers. Disgraceful.

[TWU @transportworker]

Coming to a bus stop near you:
slower bus service, angrier riders and increased assaults. @transportworker Local 106 President Philip Valenti in NYC tells @mta board members what will happen if planned road Bus Dispatcher cuts go through.

[TWU @transportworker]

Pat Ryan has steadfastly supported transport sector workers in New York and across the USA
The TWU will earnestly and steadfastly support electeds who support transport workers. @twusamuelsen

[John Samuelsen @TwuSamuelsen]

With my friend and ally @RMTunion General Secretary Mick Lynch at the @ITFglobalunion 2024 Congress talking about the forthcoming UN-Thatcherization of public transport across the UK. Profiteers in charge of passenger transportation is a recipe for disaster 👍. @transportworker

[TWU @transportworker]

Big Tech has been crowing about automation for years, but it will never replace the value of a human operator. Just this week, a NYC bus driver saved a 5-yr-old girl. The TWU will keep fighting on automation and winning! https://t.co/TOoCsS77O9

@RickSmithShow You are all in my prayers brother, stay strong and God bless.

An immigrant doesn’t stand between you and a good job.

A billionaire does.

@transportworker @GoBrightline Angelo does a damn good job & the members will be very well prepared, believe that!

If Paddy the “CEO” (Cheap Executive Officer) would have invested the money in his workforce instead of wasting it on lawyers, he wouldn’t have to worry about the TWU.

He didn’t, so now he does.

[TWU @transportworker]

A tentative contract extension for @AmericanAir's AMTs, Fleet Service Workers, Ground Mechanics & other workers has been reached. “Our goal was to quickly negotiate a very beneficial settlement and avoid a repeat of the acrimony we had with American in 2019,” TWU Intl. President Samuelsen said. "We definitely succeeded."@TwuSamuelsen

[John Samuelsen @TwuSamuelsen]

Unfortunately the same cannot be said for @GoBrightline in Florida, where they are active trying to crush the workers’ democratic desire to form a trade union. They’ve hired aggressive anti-trade union lawyers to undermine workers’ efforts. Shame on Brightline. @transportworker

[𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫 📢 @Brian_TWU]

It’s clear @GoBrightline doesn’t take care of their employees that they laughingly call their “teammates.” If they did, they wouldn’t be asking the @transportworker Union to help them!

We call our members sisters and brothers, because they’re family, not “teammates.” 🙄

[TWU @transportworker]

"@GoBrightline’s draconian time off policies, where getting sick can lead to a potential dismissal, are the exact reason why on-board workers want to join The TWU. More mental health resources are also needed for workers experiencing deadly accidents.” @Twusamuelsen @CBS12

[𝐁𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫 📢 @Brian_TWU]

@transportworker @TwuSamuelsen @TWULocal100 @twulocal320 A blessing indeed, keep up the good fight my brother!

[John Samuelsen @TwuSamuelsen]

Out on this July 4th in Greenpoint , Brooklyn with @TWULocal100 Brooklyn Division reps Gary Rosario & Alexander Kemp supporting the hardworking @transportworker Bus Operators doing the bus shuttle work for G-Line Track Construction. The TWU moves New York and we move America 🇺🇸.

[TWU @transportworker]

NY @GovKathyHochul is a Disaster for Democrats, a Disaster for New York.

[John Samuelsen @TwuSamuelsen]

Right now, @GovKathyHochul is attacking @MTA TWU commuter rail workers pensions, health benefits, seniority rights, etc. She’s a backstabbing disaster, an electoral nightmare for @TheDemocrats, and for clarification, @transportworker never endorsed her, we endorsed @TishJames.

[John Samuelsen @TwuSamuelsen]

An absolute honor for me today in Chicago to present my great friend @transportworker Rail Division Director Fightin’ John Feltz from Jersey City with a plaque celebrating his 50 years in the TWU. Fearsome Feltzy is just hitting his stride, he’s got lots of battling still to do.
