I was honored to rally with the American Federation of Government Employees last week in support of federal workers. In the fight for better pay, benefits, and working conditions, when unions win, America wins.

My wife loves to shop at Trader Joe's. As an Union activist and officer for AFGE Local 221, I can now support shopping at Trader Joe's.

There is now a union inside Trader Joe's. https://t.co/BNJGlr9s45 via @HuffPostBiz

As a Social Worker for the VA and an officer for AFGE local 221, I have the honor of serving federal employees and Veterans! I am grateful for AFGE and the National VA Council for the tireless efforts to inspire the voices needed to stop to the AIR! #solidarity #unionstrong #AFGE

In a new opinion piece in The Hill, AFGE National President Everett Kelley says that by blocking the VA Closure Commission, Congress is doing the right thing for veterans and ensuring our nation's heroes continue to receive the best quality care: https://t.co/H9wG7wWh6c

I promised I would be the most pro-union president in our history.

That’s another promise I am keeping.
