Our union brother Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia was deported due to “an administrative error,” even though he has protected status. Despite a federal judge and Supreme Court order, he still hasn’t come home to his family.

[Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick 🇺🇸 @RepBrianFitz]

Today, along with a group of my colleagues (@RepMikeLawler, @RepDonBacon, @RepMikeTurner, @RepLaLota, @RepGarbarino, @RepBresnahan, & Rep. Chris Smith), I called on President Trump to reconsider his Executive Order regarding collective bargaining rights of unionized federal workers.

We support efforts to improve government efficiency—but applying sweeping national security exemptions to agencies like SSA, FCC, GSA, and HHS risks doing more harm than good. These agencies are vital to public service. Undermining collective bargaining in these spaces weakens morale, accountability, and performance.

That’s why, alongside this letter, I introduced the Protect America’s Workforce Act with @RepGolden. This bipartisan bill restores a responsible, targeted approach—preserving bargaining rights and reinforcing the role that the worker’s voice plays in strengthening government.

We don’t have to choose between security and fairness. We can—and must—protect both.

✈ Delaware North workers at US Airports are covered by a national agreement that expired on 10/31. As bargaining continues, workers across the US have been delegating, speaking to their elected officials & taking strike votes as they fight for free healthcare & wage increases.

In Tampa Delaware North workers voted 100% to authorize a strike, which could begin as soon as November 1 if called by the worker negotiating committee.

We need a contract with livable wages. We Won't Wait!

The system failed Robert Roberson in every way. The courts have refused to consider evidence not only that Robert is innocent, but also that no crime ever occurred. The pardon board—supposedly a “safety valve”—refused to intervene. Only @GovAbbott can stop this execution now.

"It’s also vital for the women doing the work to also sit at the bargaining table, 'because sometimes as women, we need something that the men don’t know,' said [@UniteHereL2 leader Maria] Mata, whose hotel is currently in bargaining for a new contract."

The headline of the night is that JD Vance continues to refuse to say if Donald Trump won in 2020 or if he'll certify the results if Trump loses in 2028.

"That is a damning non-answer."

Yes, yes it is.

“Our members simply can’t wait for a new contract. After the current contract expires on Oct. 31, there is a real possibility of labor disruptions at airports.”
