To every American who cares about the fundamental freedoms of working people, now is the time to stand up and speak out about the Trump admin’s unlawful union-busting of federal workers.

As @AFGEPrezKelley said, the labor movement isn't going anywhere.

[UMMAP 6739 @UMMAP6739]

We reached a tentative agreement with management on Monday. Our Bargaining Team deserves special thanks for negotiating an amazing first contract. Thousands of us marched, rallied, threatened to go on strike, and stood up for each other, and we did it! Onward to ratification!

[UMMAP 6739 @UMMAP6739]

Management makes us do more with less, leaving positions open for months & increasing our workload. Though dedicated, this affects our health, wellbeing & families. Many have left & many are considering it. A fair contract could reduce turnover. .@umichmedicine #FairContractNow

[UMMAP 6739 @UMMAP6739]

We agree! .@umichmedicine you have yet to follow through on your objectives. New facilities are nice but you need to retain your dedicated staff for them to properly function. We are the backbone of this health system. #PatientsOverProfits #StrongerTogether #FairContractNow

[UMMAP 6739 @UMMAP6739]

Access to healthcare relies on people, not just buildings. Our goals improve wages staffing retention, recruitment & patient care. Urge UM/MM leadership to support UMMAP’s first contract! .@umichmedicine https://t.co/leoEHAjuvc #PatientsOverProfits #UMMAPCares #FairContractNow

[UMMAP 6739 @UMMAP6739]

We call on our allies to share why a strong first contract is vital for us. Repost & quote your support a fair contract. Example: We receive exception care, so MM staff merit a fair CBA. .@ummap6739 & .@umichmedicine. #PatientsOverProfits #UMMAPCares #StrongerTogether

[UMMAP 6739 @UMMAP6739]

.@UPAMMunion we hear you & know you deserve a fair contract now. Come on .@umichmedicine! #UMMAPCares #UPAMMCares #FairContractsNow

[UPAMM @UPAMMunion]

Wouldn't it be great if @umichmedicine gave UPAMM and @UMMAP6739 a holiday miracle and agreed to fair contracts for both unions? There is no better time to show us we are appreciated!
