Proud to stand with @BCTGM Local 50G in Omaha tonight. They’re striking for fair wages, benefits, and the right to NOT work 12 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Enough with the corporate greed! American workers deserve to have lives, too. #SolidarityNow#Solidarityforever 🇺🇸
Joe Biden is more than just a friend to the IBEW, he is a sincere believer in the necessity of unions. He understands, as we do, that unions like the IBEW are in the public interest. And the IBEW understands who our real friends are.
Too little, too late. And making it a competitive grant like it’s the hunger games instead of helping hungry Iowa kids in the summer.

New from @Rushthewriter: Iowa Republicans in the legislature continue to obsess over culture war issues and ignore Democrats' proposals on raising wages, making childcare affordable, and more.

When you get to my age certain things become clearer than ever before.
My lifetime has taught me to embrace freedom, democracy, and a future based on the core values that have defined America.
Honesty.
Decency.
Dignity.
Equality.
At the Iowa Capitol to cover today's rally by @IowaAFLCIO to protest a bill under consideration in the Iowa Senate that Iowa workers say is another attempt at union -busting.
Western Iowa Labor Federation President Jen Pellant is speaking out against Iowa's "right-to-work" law.
If you want to know why Iowa Labor groups hate this particular law, read this piece by @amierrivers

New from @Rushthewriter: Sara McFarlane wants to make sure her husband’s on-the-job death—during the inmate escape attempt at Anamosa State Penitentiary in 2021— wasn’t in vain.

You can #Vote for Plan Three at the auditor’s office in the Pottawattamie County courthouse starting July 12th or at your regular polling place on Tuesday, August 1. #VoteforChange! We need districts and accountability.
The @WestIALaborFed has endorsed #PlanThree for Pottawattamie County. This Board has wasted taxpayer $$$ on a ski hill, refused to pay first responders and correctional officers, and been unresponsive to the working and rural parts of our county. It’s time for a change!
