Grocery companies claim #SelfCheckout frees up workers to concentrate on customer service.

The Reality is:

❌You Don’t Pay Less

❌Cuts Workers Hours

❌Chronic Understaffing

❌Long Checkout Lines

❌Customers Work

❌Companies Make More $

❌It’s Not Faster

@VernWilliamsMD The factors are also associated with diabetes and menopause, right? It can’t be good.

Weekends off
Paid vacations
Work breaks
Sick leave
Paid holidays
No child labor
Safer working conditions
Health care and retirement benefits

My mom grew up picking cotton in the 1950s. Yesterday, she waited in line to once again pick her son to represent Georgia in the U.S. Senate. We’ve come a long way, but the work isn’t done!

Please vote, Georgia 🗳

Union busting —

is disgusting!

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

Unions won 641 elections so far this year — the most in nearly 20 years.

The first-ever unionized Trader Joe's.

The first unionized Chipotle in the U.S.

The first unionized Amazon facility in the U.S.

230 unionized Starbucks stores.

This is what a labor uprising looks like.

Today 43 Republicans voted to keep insulin at $1200/mo instead of $35. Tomorrow every Republican will ask you to be outraged that gas is $5 instead of $3.

In the GOP world, $1200 for life saving insulin in fair play but $5 for gas is an outrage.

Vote them all out.
