Over “the last several years, it’s younger people, many of them new to the labor movement, who have been driving enthusiasm for unions…[If] the Democrats can harness that, then the labor movement could prove pivotal in this election.” https://t.co/8S7wGZSytK

Project 2025 contains hardly anything to lift workers, but is full of recommendations to boost corporate profits & weaken unions

It calls for eliminating OT pay for millions of workers & abolishing public-sector unions, including teachers' & police unions
