Mercedes CEO pay jumped 80% last year. 8 execs got $27 MILLION in raises. Alabama Mercedes workers got left behind. That changes May 13-17 with the union election at Mercedes. #StandUpMercedes #VoteUAWYes #StandUpUAW
Many thought Reba's song "I'm a Survivor" was about being a single mom, but really it was about having to work two jobs when one should have been enough! #UnionsForAll #StrongerTogether

Leonard Leo’s network plans to stamp out abortion access in every state from the date of conception forward. Even if Congress fails to pass a national abortion ban, they will challenge state laws that protect abortion access & take it to SCOTUS, which Trump already gifted to Leo.

Mercedes will begin sending torrents of text messages to its 5,200 workers today. Workers said the company can’t be bothered to send texts when a shift is canceled. But nothing is impossible when it comes to busting the union.
The National Labor Relations Act still functions, just barely, for Starbucks workers. Employees at fast-food franchises face even worse odds under federal labor law. Read @brian_callaci on lessons from Starbucks Workers United and Fight for $15. dissentmagazine.org/online_article…

Been wondering when this would happen.
Students at the University of Wisconsin Madison have now joined the Gaza solidarity encampment protests sweeping across the United States
I wish we lived in a world where @AOC challenging AIPAC and the rest of the lobby, calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, and showing up at a protest encampment was politically opportunistic.
AOC visits students in the Columbia University protest encampment today. @CBSNewYork
This illegal immigrant argument within our unions needs to stop…. It is the oldest trick in the playbook, blame the worker not the employer… that’s just anti union
Father shows up for his daughter protesting against genocide at USC in Los Angeles 🇵🇸 “I imagine being a father in Palestine.. to see my kid be assassinated by Israel.”
on the campus protest news cycle: every single media outlet that centers its coverage on the feelings of students who defend israel and not about the mass graves being uncovered in gaza is doing so deliberately. the pro palestinian students want the attention to remain on gaza
Just learned that last night, NYC bus drivers stood in solidarity with Palestine by refusing to drive buses holding protesters from @jvpliveNY’s sedar in the streets demanding an end to genocide and US funding for Israel.
Privileged to spend Tues 4-23 waking up live with Amy & Juan on @democracynow re current and future of working class organizing. We are in exciting yet perilous times. I am super fortunate to then head talk with @BrianLehrer re BIG UAW win and small stuff like saving democracy.
As Earth Day approaches, and in the honor of the big UAW win in Tennessee) a favorite anthem from the NY Labor Chorus youtube.com/watch?v=wxX7Sa…
The Shai Davidai being afraid of seeing like >7 Muslims at once is so funny cause it's like dude you're at Columbia University you are in Morningside Heights dog 70% of the people there are named Jessica imagine his reaction on like 37th avenue in the lower 70s or steinway street
Unions like the UAW and Teamsters have the ability to move the (mostly white) people who might otherwise drink the kool aid, educate the ppl that we need to tip the balance and fend off full descent into facism. They refocus rage productively and form cross-racial solidarity.
Yes, and we must organize in this window of opportunity we have. We must also fight against Trump til November but we know a strong labor movement can defend democracy and is best situated to push back if the MAGA forces remove the National Labor Relations Act entirely
@BrandonMagner The critique by me is there are a couple national/international unions who saw the pandemic as an organizing opportunity, and a couple who have a little bit later and are ramping up now, then there are 45 ish who are operating exactly as they did 5 years ago.

Read this speech our brother Shawn gave to the workers voting to join the UAW next month in Alabama. This is the fight we’re in. We will win when we realize that only WE can win. Here’s to storming the South and building a new labor movement, and a new nation.
Operation Dixie 2: Electric Vehicle Boogaloo
The @UAW landslide union victory in Tennessee is a turning point. Workers across the south now know it can be done. Meanwhile politicians better pay attention to the message from Shawn Fain and the workers themselves: unapologetic class war from the working class, for once.
