HISTORY MADE! The Rideshare Drivers’ Union Bill passed both chambers and will now head to the Governor’s desk to be signed into law. 100,000 drivers can now form a union and collectively bargain for higher wages, safety protections and more!

Trump and Zeldin can rescind the Endangerment Finding, but they can’t erase reality. Climate change is here, it’s driven by fossil fuel pollution, and Americans across the country are already living with the consequences. https://t.co/R6rXNw3JIb

The Trump administration is rolling back climate protections—handing oil execs a green light to pollute our air and poison our kids’ futures. This is climate violence against working people. Take action below to tell the EPA: PEOPLE over profits.

Airport workers are calling out AGI for ignoring extreme heat and unsafe conditions. Every worker deserves water, breaks to cool down, and proper heat training. AGI must stop risking lives for profit!

There are a lot of folks in this town who have worked really hard, for a really long time to bring the FEWB to life. Today is building on the legacy of organizers from nearly 20 years ago who initially brought the idea of the FEWB to life. It’s truly a beautiful thing 🥹🥹🥹

Question to the panel, Local 1 janitors are fighting for a strong new contract this spring. Can you tell us about what you hope to see in that contract?

“Something that I want to see in the contract besides better wages is more appreciation!” says Local 1 janitor John Gilner.

[SEIU Local 1 @SEIULocal1]
