I stand in solidarity with the @WGAWest and the @WGAEast

[Writers Guild of America West @WGAWest]

The Board of Directors of the @WGAwest and the Council of the @WGAeast, acting upon the authority granted to them by their memberships, have voted unanimously to call a strike, effective 12:01 AM, Tuesday, May 2.

It says so much about the toxic culture of work in the USA that we use “quite quitting” to describe the refusal to participate in unpaid labor. It’s not quitting, it’s working.

[Faramir and the Light Brigade @rkstark1]

@BishopNaomi That is so irritating! My neighbors do that, and smoke everything else too. I hope it gets better soon

[Faramir and the Light Brigade @rkstark1]

Thanks so much to all the work of @NCN_MLG members who make this work possible! Thanks to my wonderful co-authors. I am excited for more members to participate!

@angspenc I use a white board. It’s so satisfying to be able to wipe something off it.

I am honored to be on the election ballot for the MLA Nominating Committee. I appreciate everyone’s support and belief and I hope to be able to serve.

So happy to see that the hardworking teachers and staff have won!

[Sac Teachers @SacTeachers]

BREAKING: We WON for our students alongside our @SEIU1021 colleagues! The power of our strike resulted in a deal that will help address the severe staffing crisis in our district. We cannot wait to see our students tomorrow, back at school where we all belong.

@korlamasters It is amazing how much teachers and staff can shape our lives.

[Faramir and the Light Brigade @rkstark1]

@wonderbrarian Congrats!!! 🎉

[Faramir and the Light Brigade @rkstark1]

Happy to support @SacTeachers and @seiu1021 on their strike. I ran into my third grade teacher! She remembered me and I am so grateful for all the teachers and staff in @officialSCUSD that helped me succeed. Increase pay and benefits now!

[Faramir and the Light Brigade @rkstark1]

I am super sad I can’t make the drive to support @SacTeachers and @seiu1021 tomorrow on their strike, but I stand behind them all. There is no education w/o staff and teachers. I appreciate my education and all the wonderful teachers and staff who made it possible.

[Sac Teachers @SacTeachers]

We're taking the strike to the @sac_coe on Thursday! Get ready to rally and get loud!
