Hats off to the 3,800 healthcare workers of the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics who won 6% wage increases across the board and 3% increases each year moving forward! When we fight, we WIN 💜 #UnionsForAll https://t.co/okyIFeMFDb
Faux-woke companies like @Starbucks brand themselves as places that are gender-affirming & safe for LGBTQ+ folks, but when we organize, #Starbucks uses that angle to intimidate us & stop our union. Shameful! Tell them to stop union busting: https://t.co/QA5nEumXfx #UnionsForAll
🚨 🚨 🚨UNION WINS THREAD ALERT: Less than a year ago, there were ZERO unionized Starbucks stores in the US. Today, there are 258! Let’s take a look at some of the incredible things workers have fought for and WON over the past year…
UPDATE: US Railroads rejected a new sick leave proposal from the third largest rail union, which would have required them to provide workers with 7 paid sick leave days.
Workers currently have 0 paid sick days.
The union described the carriers' rejection as “totally asinine."
“There has not been a hotter moment to organize in decades than right now”….“Workers are fed up with extreme inequality and exploitation and ready to fight to improve their conditions. Now is the time to throw everything at the wall and take bold risks.”https://t.co/Paqm7Oaqic
Getting ready for our first substantive bargaining meeting next week. The bargaining team is fired up to win on fairness, flexibility, and equity in our second contract!
Last night, managers at JFK8 tried to force employees back to work in the aftermath of a fire. The building was flooded and filled with smoke. Hundreds of workers felt unsafe & demanded to be sent home. We initiated a health and safety work stoppage when they wouldn't comply.
BREAKING: Today marks the first union election in the history of the U.S. Congress. Staff in @RepAndyLevin's office will vote on whether to unionize and bargain collectively. This is a historic moment for both the labor movement and democracy.
“These new contracts provide rail employees a 24 percent wage increase during the five-year period from 2020 through 2024, including an immediate payout on average of $11,000 upon ratification." #unionstrong https://t.co/Buv5Ds5O8u
