Hey teachers, nurses, and workers everywhere—imagine getting a 61.5% raise.

Strikes work. Get organized and build strong relationships with your coworkers.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

BREAKING: The dockworkers strike is over.

According to reports, the union and shippers have reached an agreement that includes a 61.5% wage increase over 6 years.

Final details will be negotiated in the coming months.

The longshoremen are expected to return to work tomorrow.

Thank you so much to @ProgressiveVic for the endorsement! 🌹I pledge to fight for a Green New Deal that protects our drinking water from toxic algal blooms, establishes a moratorium on resource-heavy A.I. data centers, and ensures that local growth is truly sustainable.

Onondaga County must do more to provide safe and affordable housing, to provide childcare for everyone, and to provide accessible transportation. That’s why we’re running on the affordability slate. #syracuse #AffordabilitySlate

I would not be who I am today without DSA. It’s such an honor to be endorsed by them. I’ve learned a lot of what I know about organizing, leadership, and fighting for an economic system that benefits all working people. Join DSA if you want to learn how to make real change.

In the last 15 months, we have recruited over 8,500 Americans to run for office at every level of government.

Today, I am proud to endorse 61 progressives running for state and local office across America.

They will fight for the kind of changes our country desperately needs.

Happy May Day! ✊🏻🚩
International Workers’ Day is a reminder that the rights we have today, from the weekend to fair wages, weren't given; they were fought for by organized labor.
I’m proud to stand with my NYSUT family to continue that fight.

[Maurice Mo Brown @MoBreezy213]

Proud to Earn the endorsement of @ProgressiveVic . I took the PV Pledge because healthcare should be affordable accessible and treated as a right

That's what I fight for everyday, and what I'll fight for on in Albany,

I attended a public hearing on the proposed Centro Buses network. Key concerns included essential route cuts, ADA compliance issues, inadequate bus stop shelters, and cost. As a county legislator, I will work to enhance accessibility, frequency, and affordability.

[Jo Bennett @electjobennett]
