[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

The presence of a union means there is democracy.

And organizing or joining a union — that’s democracy in action.

Today, @SenSanders and I met with young worker leaders to discuss their fight for better pay and benefits. They are building the economy of the future.

[NABET Local 18 @nabet18]

What a difference a day makes: from the view in the @AmericasCenter between Sunday and Monday, and the Presidency of the @CWAUnion from today to tomorrow. However, no matter the day, we remain #UnionStrong! @NABETCWA @CWADistrict1

NABET-CWA strongly disagrees with Twitter's recent labeling of
NPR as a "state-affiliated media" organization. #NPR #nabet #Union

[Dave Jamieson @jamieson]

Along with the NBC News layoffs, @nyguild says the company is “attempting to remove https://t.co/lQEq6Cc9mL staffers from our union, informing them that they are no longer ‘part of the Guild,’ effective today.”

Union is filing unfair labor practice charges. Union’s statement:

[Amanda Hess @amandahess]

We’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Make something from a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.

[Bera Dunau @BeraDunau]

Please support the workers at LTC who are asking their employer to voluntarily recognize their union.

🚨BREAKING: @OneHeraldGuild and @BHnewsguild members voted unanimously to ratify our first collective bargaining agreement. Member turnout was strong with 93% of members in Miami and 100% in Bradenton casting a vote.

[Danny Rivero @TooMuchMe]

Good news for the news for once

[Kati Kokal @katikokal]

If you're a @Gannett employee impacted by layoffs, there is a team that's working on community aid needs (networking, food assistance, insurance needs, etc) regardless of shop union status.

DM me for details.

[Dan Kennedy @dankennedy_nu]

Today is the day that Gannett is expected to implement massive layoffs. We’ll see what its newspapers look like at the end of business.

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

America’s unions remain committed to the fight for gender justice and economic equity for all people.

Reproductive Rights = Worker Rights.

We offer our heartfelt condolences to those at @NinePBS who knew or worked with David Liroff.

CONGRATULATIONS to @NABETCWA on reaching a tentative agreement with @DisneyABCTV on a new contract that will cover more than 3k employees working as studio and field broadcast technicians, news writers, producers, desk assistants, publicists, and other personnel.

[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

EXCLUSIVE: Trader Joe’s workers in Massachusetts are organizing to form the company’s first ever union.

They say Trader Joe's has repeatedly slashed pay & benefits and neglected safety issues in recent years.

They're unionizing to make the company live up to its own values.

[Jeff Stein @jstein_notus]

SCOOP: Biden aides talk w/ Amazon, Starbucks union leaders about potential visit to White House, per sources

Details TBD/mtg not finalized

If it happens, would be among most pro-union gestures by POTUS in recent history - unimaginable under Obama/Clinton
