TED! So much more than a seasoned photog. Someone you can count on when trouble arises! Good man Ted.

The only thing that has changed with media companies since Bernie first spoke these words is that they have become more powerful and greedy and treat their workers very, very poorly.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Here's what happens with the American people: They work longer hours, their standard of living is in decline, and they turn on their television, but they do not see a reflection of that reality in the news media.

That's where unions come in. We don't let management ignore problems and we keep them accountable. 💅🏻

Twitter employees relied on promises made by the company that they'd be treated fairly if @ElonMusk’s acquisition was successful. He reneged on their promise of severance. We've filed arbitration demands now for almost half of laid off US Tweeps because Musk must pay what he owes

This is what IBEW Photogs do in -30 windchill!

State #Police have Sullivan Street in Berlin blocked off and crime scene tape at one home where reports of a suspicious death have neighbors worried #WMUR

[Alfonso Robinson @ctblogger]

Pathetic.

[IBEW Local 1228 @ibew1228]

it takes a lot of courage to tell your boss exactly how you feel. SOLIDARITY!

Yesterday, a community member captured the moment our unionized friends at 29th & Willamette in Eugene, OR marched on the boss and walked out on strike.

The grievances cited included unfair dress coding, misogynistic comments, abusive behavior, and health code violations.

You butter believe life is better with a union!

#UnionsForAll

[Liz Shuler @LizShuler]

One week ago, @ElonMusk claimed he wouldn’t cut 75% of Twitter's workforce.

Flash forward & those who remain at @Twitter are working 84-hour weeks & managers are sleeping at the office.

👀Twitter workers: A union can help you get a voice at the table and we’re ready to assist!

[IBEW Local 1228 @ibew1228]

Please send this to all of your republican and independent voter friends and simply ask them to watch it all the way through.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

I make no apologies for standing up for working families when we faced the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. The truth is this election is about whether our government fights for working people or if it works only for the very rich. I know which side I’m on.
