Big thank you to Laura at @1stShiftJustice & Lauren at @MWELA_DC for their great presentation to our @domesticworkers fellowship program about domestic workers’ rights in DC! This training will equip our fellows to do community outreach to help domestic workers know their rights!
Such exciting worker organizing out of my alma mater! My on campus job was in admissions but so many friends worked in the dining halls. They worked hard and deserved fair working conditions. I strongly urge @smithcollege to voluntarily recognize this petition for a union!

Domestic workers often work in isolated, private spaces, making them susceptible to abuse and exploitation. A written agreement sheds light on this hidden abuse, protecting workers. We applaud @USDOL @ActSecJulieSu & call on the Senate to confirm her. #YesJulieSu!
I love being greeted every day when I come to my office at @FestivalDC by @brwneyedamzn's beautiful artwork, and I got to meet her this past weekend at Mt. Pleasant Arts All Night! Thank you for the many forms of beauty you bring to the world #ShowAnaYelsiSomeLoveDay
Today is #ShowAnaYelsiSomeLoveDay! We are so grateful for the beauty, prophetic boldness, and creative excellence that @brwneyedamzn brings to the world every day! Thank you AnaYelsi for ALL you do! Can you #ShowAnaYelsiSomeLoveDay today?
Earlier this week the D.C. #DomesticWorkersBillofRights went into effect, and yesterday team D.C. visited their council members offices to ensure they were ready to implement the bill in an effective and accessible way. This will make real change in the lives of care workers.
Today the DC Chapter of @domesticworkers visited the DC Council to tell them: the DC #DomesticWorkersBillOfRights is officially in effect 🎉 We asked the Council to ensure that the responsible agencies implement the law quickly & effectively so it’s real in the lives of workers!
FUN FACT: With today's Kaiser strike 2023 has had more strikes than any year since 1983 --40 years! #SolidaritySeason
Remember how we fought for 5 years to win a historic #DomesticWorkersBillofRights to protect domestic workers in DC? Well this past Sunday, it finally went into effect! Domestic workers are officially no longer the only group of workers excluded from DC's human rights law!!

Good morning DC! Did you know that as of October 1st, DC @domesticworkers are protected under the DC Human Rights Act?! This ensures them the same rights and protections as their counterparts in other industries. #DomesticWorkersBillOfRights Read on: wusa9.com/article/news/l…

Thank you @CaringAcrossMd @1199SEIU_MDDC @PublJusticeCntr for yesterday's fabulous film screening & panel about the need to value caregivers! The DMV @domesticworkers chapter loved being there. Our care system is deeply broken but we're so glad to be in the movement to fix it!
Thank you, @MartinezforMD, for joining this great event and panel discussion with home care aide Cynthia Neely, veteran and home care recipient Charles Werrel, and Deputy Secretary Jenna Crawley of the Maryland Dept of Aging! PJC attorney David Rodwin facilitated the discussion.

Texas started busing migrants to DC in April 2022, and Arizona followed suit that May. Many migrants who came on those very first buses STILL don't have work authorization. Without it, folks struggle to find stable work and are susceptible to exploitation and wage theft. 🧵

We’re in VA! Hand in Hand members joined @domesticworkers for a meeting with Senator @timkaine to talk about the importance of National #DomesticWorkersBillOfRights —because it’s time for nationwide protections for domestic workers! Thank you for meeting with us @SenTimKaine.

Really, really glad to see this getting covered -- thank you Amanda. One meta story in this is that procurement/contracting is one of the most important admin functions within DC government and the District is consistently bad at it, with profound negative impacts on all of us.
A dump truck company is now managing DC's compost program at farmers markets, after the gov cut ties w Compost Cab The decision is puzzling: Compost Cab conceived of the program years ago, & has diverted more than 4.4 million pounds of waste from landfill wamu.org/story/24/04/05…
What a story from @amanduhgomez, and I'm surprised it hasn't gotten more attention. A local compost company lost a contract with DC, to a company with no history in composting. The DC Contract Appeals Board's recent decision overturning the contract is wild. Here's some excerpts:

Biden is choosing Netanyahu and AIPAC over the American people. He continues to provide billions in weapons to an army indiscriminately bombing civilians in a deeply unpopular war rather than funding key social programs that could help Americans thrive.
55% of Americans disapprove of Israeli military action in Gaza, new @Gallup poll shows. In November 50% of Americans approved of Israel's military operation in Gaza
Remember these families next time Republicans (and Democrats) push for policies that increase raids, detention, and deportation against immigrant communities.

The yard sign request rate for @Janeese4DC’s campaign is genuinely nuts. During a typical canvass you’d be stoked to get one yard sign request. We’re on pace for 4️⃣0️⃣ people to request yard signs as a result of this weekend’s canvasses — and it’s happening every weekend.
We need all the funds to be available to meet the needs of residents. The people and their real needs are what should always drive budget policy #SafetyIs a #DCBudget that invests in community! @TazraMitchell @DCFPI @JustRecoveryDC @jufj
Every dollar that DC must use to replenish the reserve earlier than what's required by law—especially in a tight budget yr—is a dollar we don’t have available to help residents afford rent, escape homelessness, put food on the table, pay our educators & invest in small businesses
100+ U.S. Jews just released a statement opposing @AIPAC and calling on the Democratic Party to reject its funding and its agenda. We’re proud to join them. Our movement to #RejectAIPAC is growing.

I am the only US Senate candidate in California who supports a permanent, unconditional ceasefire. I’m proud to always stand on principle—even if I have to do so alone.
Listening to hours and hours of testimony from parents and families, advocates, community members...DC has some amazing people doing incredible work and always ready to stand up for those who need it. That's the tweet.
Grateful that so many families and communities will be reunited today: the 13 Israelis, 10 Thais and 1 Filipino who were held by Hamas, and the 39 Palestinian women and children who were held in Israeli jails. Everyone for everyone.
Thank God. Now release the rest.
The Israelis released Friday include a mother and her two children, aged 4 and 2; a mother and her five-year-old; three generations of one family (grandmother, mother and grandson); and five elderly women, the eldest of whom is 85 haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

Always a wonderful, inspiring time when spent with DC @domesticworkers!
Big thank you to Laura at @1stShiftJustice & Lauren at @MWELA_DC for their great presentation to our @domesticworkers fellowship program about domestic workers’ rights in DC! This training will equip our fellows to do community outreach to help domestic workers know their rights!
If a member of congress can travel numerous times to Israel and West Bank and return with impression that there are no restrictions on Palestinian movement but the real issue is that Jews are “prohibited” from Area A by the IDF, they should ask the trip’s sponsor for a refund.
