We can't take care of our families on poverty wages. In one of the richest countries on earth, we should all be making living wages. Tell Congress we need $15 https://t.co/FoZCmazRu2 #Fightfor15
@InStyle @MonicaRamirezDC @meenaharris @unitehere@UFCW@UFCW770@OURWmt@domesticworkers@pwcscorg@mujerxsrising Hey #TIMESUP, This movement is GREAT but VA needs some help to be the 38th state to ratify the ERA. This could happen NOW with a little #STARPOWER. We passed the Senate & are stuck in committee in the House. Equality for the country rests in the hands of 2 guys :( Please dm us.
A $15 minimum wage was once considered "radical" – but working people organized, and today, members of Congress led by @SenSanders reintroduced the Federal #RaiseTheWage Act, which would mean raises in pay for more than 41 million of us nationwide.
Together, we will win.
Yesterday, we called on Eddie Lampert to set up a financial hardship fund to support the families impacted by the Sears & Kmart bankruptcy. Nearly 90,000 employees have already been laid off since last year or are facing losing our jobs this year.

More than 5 million workers will have an increase in their paychecks in 2019, thanks to minimum wage increases in over 20 states. Is your state one of them? https://t.co/njGtWDgGnH
We shouldn’t be scraping to pay bills and keep food on the table. We formed a union and took action to get airport executives to listen to us, and I believe it paid off." -Gladys Hernandez, PDX passenger service assistant who just won $15 https://t.co/1qPXwaWy0S #FightFor15
The unemployment rate doesn’t take into account those of us stuck in part-time jobs unable to find full-time work. We’re paid low wages & forced to live on government assistance. This is not a thriving economy.
We want to hear from you: How are YOU surviving in this economy?
Walmart is implementing a new system that is supposed to prepare stores to be ready to serve customers while giving associates more predictable and flexible scheduling options.

It's #CyberMonday2018 and the @OURWmt carol singers have entered the building! Don't forget to support the #StopWalmartAct. This is the bill co-sponsored by Senator Sanders and Congressman @RoKhanna. Corporations must not be able to buy back their own stock unless they pay $15ph
We shouldn’t have to regularly choose between paying rent, getting medicine or buying food to eat. It’s time for Walmart to publicly commit to raising the minimum wage to $15/hr and real raises for long-time associates. Sign our petition now https://t.co/wR1WTaLk2o
Today retail companies like @Walmart and @amazon make BILLIONS of dollars in #CyberMonday sales.
Whose work makes all of that money?? The workers. We deserve a living wage. So today we are calling on Walmart to DELIVER A LIVING WAGE. #RiseUpRetail
