WATCH: “Why do you want us to not be safe?”

MEMPHIS councilwoman Pearl Eva Walker says TN Republicans @CSexton25 @ltgovmcnally @tnsecofstate Hargett threatening them to block non-binding gun safety referendums makes her “nauseous” and questions their motives.

🔥 WATCH: “THEY CHOSE THE WRONG CITY.”

Today is #EqualPayDay — the day women finally make the same amount of money that white, non-Hispanic men made working in 2023.

The solution to closing the wage gap runs right through the labor movement. Women in unions earn 22% more in wages than nonunion women. #union
