Irish American Left

Promoting justice, freedom, and equality among Irish Americans.

Also hilariously dumb: the implication that a tax-and-invest fiscal policy is more irresponsible than relying on a race-to-the-bottom game of global tax rate jockeying for your basic spending. The center-right has left Ireland on the brink of insolvency with this shell game

[Irish American Left @theirishleft]

The main argument here is trash. The center-right parties overcomplicated housing and health due to their commitment to reckless tax policy and “solutions” driven through the financial sector. SF is simply addressing the actual problems head on

Thanks to Rep @IlhanMN for her support of the #PROact #1u

Hey remember when the Panama Papers came out 4 years ago and revealed that the rich are part of an enormous criminal conspiracy to dodge taxes and hoard stolen wealth in offshore accounts and literally nothing happened (except a reporter working on the story was assassinated).

[Irish American Left @theirishleft]

All Irish Americans should know empathy and solidarity to Native Americans in voting rights struggles, particularly where they concern traditional ways of living and property ownership. Similar (but different) battles were fought by our ancestors.

with @sinnfeinireland's victory last weekend and the american left on the rise, it's probably time to revive this group, yea? 💚✅🥳✅💚

We will protest your every footstep in Ireland @realDonaldTrump - just as we’re protesting your racism on #StPatricksDay in Dublin.

A house that's only 2 meters wide would cost you almost €300,000. That means a nurse on €30,000 would have no hope of even buying this pathetic property. Pay them a decent wage - and build public housing.

How would you react if you were confronted with a real "No Irish Need Apply" sign? https://t.co/E1SxfcV9fP #Irish #Immigration #StPatricksDay #immigrant

[UFCW @UFCW]

March is #WomensHistoryMonth! All month long we'll be celebrating women in history who helped make build better lives for hardworking people, as well as those who are breaking barriers and making moves today. #1u

[Rory Hearne @RoryHearneGaffs]

Why join #RaisetheRoof today in Cork? Push for Public land for public housing only. The State should build houses for affordable rental & affordable purchase — without profit or speculation. And — no means-tests. In other words, public housing for all! https://t.co/vap9JuiGWH

[The Irish Times @IrishTimes]

More than 21 protest events are to be staged across the country on Friday coinciding with school strikes for action on climate change, which will be attended by thousands of pupils, according to some of the organisers. https://t.co/bfz0WfZXeH

[Irish Stand @irishstand]

On this St. Patrick’s Day, lets take another #IrishStand against racism.

The economy may be booming, but nearly half of Americans can't make ends meet https://t.co/YrzuyKYcsT

Just toured Port Isabel ICE Detention Center in TX. It was horrifying, shocking & very eye-opening. Thread to follow....
