@QuantumAlteredX I saw Iggy at the ROAR Tour in 1997 (I think). He dove off the stage into a group of 12 year olds. They all moved out of the way and he hit shoulder first. It was horrific and hilarious at the same time.
Donald Trump‘s deployment of National Guard troops to the nation’s capital and forcing a federal law enforcement takeover of the Metropolitan Police Department is not only terrorizing residents and workers, it’s also harming local businesses.

We cannot wait for @NewsGuild to join our @CWAUnion siblings in doing the same.
Opposing crimes against humanity won't make any members worse flight attendants, just like it won't make any Guild members worse journalists or non-profit workers.

Today we’d like to congratulate our member Clare Lewis whose research won a 2023 Expy Award! Clare is an amazing researcher, a passionate union member, and an incredibly kind person. Talk about triple threat 😌🫰
“One job should be enough” - it’s a slogan @UFCW uses all the time. But for #UFCW guild members like Information Management Coordinator Sara, they’re just empty words.
Big news: We had our first bargaining session yesterday! One step closer to a strong contract, and we’re ready to fight for our worth. Now, if we could bring management’s tactics into this millenium…
Happy to announce that the WAGES unit has successfully defended the COLA that our contract stipulates. Thank you to all of those who have helped us secure this win!
The @AFLCIO Staff Guild has voted 85% to ratify a TA reached shortly before the Thanksgiving holiday.
This contract includes 13.25% raises over 4 years, a cost-neutral solution to protect our pensions and more. When we fight, we win!
We are THRILLED our unit members voted to ratify our contract today! We expect NAF MGMT and our reps to officially sign Monday.
We are incredibly proud of this contract as it will vastly improve the lives of our staff. This contract is only because our staff stood in union!
Today at the @AFLCIO Executive Council Meeting, guild members hand-delivered 592 signatures from our union allies & siblings that are urging management to return to the bargaining table to President @LizShuler and @STRedmond
Union values begin at home.
Congratulations to both the EdWeek and NRDC Union Organizing Committees and bargaining unit employees. Thank you for all your dedication and hard work.
95% of our entire guild unit voted NO on @AFLCIO management’s second “Best and Final Offer,” a contract that failed to meet our standards for a living wage and retirement security.
Union values start at home and we are standing strong!
Washingtonian magazine is hosting an event tonight to celebrate women in our community, but the company needs to take a look at the women on its own staff.
@merrillwilliams
AFL-CIO President @LizShuler has spoken writ large about the importance of pensions and retirement security, yet AFL-CIO management wants to erode it for their own staff.
Union values start at home. Let's keep our pension, let's keep our promise.
Us and our union siblings @propublicaguild are demanding that @propublica drop its collaboration with the scab @PittsburghPG. Leadership of both newsrooms have misled workers & the public to *enable* abuses of power and betrayals of public trust.

We’re back at the bargaining table today, fighting for a contract with the fair wages, compensation time and retirement security we deserve.
Union values start at HOME.
