Got it - our descent into authoritarianism has nothing to do with Republican and their embrace of fascism - it’s Democrat’s fault…. nytimes.com/2025/09/04/opi…
Some thoughts from me this #laborDay: It’s hard to imagine a worse friend to workers than Trump: stripping #union rights, gutting wage protections, & firing career civil servants isn’t pro-worker—it’s a war on #labor @NewAmericaEd @NewAmerica 📷 newamerica.org/the-thread/lab…
Ha! Trump-appointed judge tosses White House lawsuit against labor unions politi.co/4o1EGcy via @politico
Wow - David Leonhardt makes M Gessen’s case on how moving to the right in an effort out outflank autocrats plays right into their hands. Leondhardt is more interested Democrats “Trump Derangement Syndrome” than dealing with our slide into autocracy.. nytimes.com/2025/06/09/opi…
Important to remember that Trump isn’t trying to heal or keep the peace. He is looking to inflame and divide. His movement doesn’t believe in democracy or protest - and if they get a chance to end the rule of law they will take it. None of this is on the level.
Join us and hear from Senator Chris Murphy, @ChrisMurphyCT, Jamelle Bouie, @jbouie, and leaders from @AFGENational, @SEIU, #NELP, #JobsWithJustice and @NewAmerica on the first 100 days of the Trump administration for workers… newamerica.org/education-poli… via @NewAmerica
“The reason your Congressman isn’t here, the reason he is hiding, is because he doesn’t believe he represents you. He thinks the only people who matter are those in the billionaire class.”
Thank you @JulieSuLabor. This is just outrageous - and another sign that Trump/Musk appointees know they are breaking the law. prospect.org/labor/2025-04-…
I’m about to board my flight to El Salvador, where I hope to meet with senior government officials to discuss the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. I also hope to see Kilmar and check on his condition — and remind him that we won’t stop fighting until he’s home.

Top of mind for LERA after the Mar. 14 presidential action is how important of the FMCS is to business owners and workers alike. It is low investment, high return for the economy. See our statement at LERAweb.org/fmcs-support
When I cast my vote, I’m representing the nearly 8 million people in Washington state. In this democracy their voices count for something—so you better believe I am not handing over my vote in exchange for nothing. I am voting NO on the House Republicans' slush fund CR.
This is long overdue. Of course the humanities are worth studying - don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Thank you @GeorgetownCEW @NewAmericaEd

Here’s why I’ll be voting NO on the partisan funding bill.

To be clear - this is an act of violence against hard-working career servants, against the middle class, against workers everywhere… It is cruel, unnecessary, and obviously illegal…
