Basically @AFTPA, @AFTunion, and a whole bunch of other @AFLCIO Unions, with rank and file help, bullied the shit out of this wannabe dictator in court and public opinion until he released the funds
Trump administration to release over $5 billion school funding that it withheld reut.rs/4lGSIPn
The number one priority of Republicans is protecting Donald Trump. It’s not protecting you. It’s protecting him.
House lawmakers ran to catch flights Wednesday afternoon – leaving for their August recess a day early -- without taking a substantive vote on releasing the Epstein files. abcnews.link/TLj9Ytq
New Foundations Charter School K8 campus OVERWHELMINGLY votes to unionize with @AFTPA @AFTunion @PhillyAFLCIO!!!! New Foundations is now the only K-12 unionized charter school in Philly. More to come!!!!
Single most important thing you need to know in the shadow of BBB passing
Any PA elected that votes for a budget not fully funding SEPTA does not deserve any support from any Union in any future election
SEPTA planners have been "putting together two fall schedules at the same time: One is normal. The other represents a 20% cut in service that would start Aug. 24," @tomfitzgerald reports The outcome of the state budget will decide which one gets used. inquirer.com/transportation…

City workers also get: - an hour ride to the shore - all 4 seasons - all major sports teams in their city - Wawa (while it lasts) - 2 subway lines - Gritty - 2 AMC movie theaters - children can attend Philly public schools (for free!)
When we talk about compensation for our city workers, it’s more than just base salary—it’s total compensation that reflects how the City values the people who keep Philadelphia running.
The only things I want to renew today is hatred for scabs and @PhillyMayor, and solidarity with @afscme33 and @PhillyAFLCIO
Today, we honor the sacrifices of those who fought for the freedoms we hold dear, and we remember that liberty is never free. As we celebrate our nation’s independence, let us renew our commitment to upholding the values that make America truly great. Happy 4th of July.
You want to talk facts? We got the facts right here. Here is what's really going on at the bargaining table (🧵/?)
Our literal king
Thank you for standing with striking workers @llcoolj
Can't believe this actually happened in chamber to get House R's to flip their votes
Let’s not confuse a catchy slogan with the truth. The so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill" may sound pro-everything — but the facts paint a very different picture: 📉 Pro-worker? ✅ The bill proposes deep cuts to Medicaid and SNAP, programs that working families rely on when…
Stand with DC 33 and @PhillyAFLCIO. Show Parker what happens when we acknowledge that Union workers make Philly work. Also don’t use private trash collecting services!!!!!!
A message from the striking @afscme33 workers of Philadelphia:
Common @CMThomasPHL Labor W. Has stood with @AFTPA Local 6056, @PFTLocal3, and many of our Labor siblings. We love ya Councilmember!
✅Isaiah Thomas (CMThomasPHL) - "They deserve a fair contract that treats them like the essential workers they are."
Cherelle Parker telling me not to put trash on the curb might just be the motivation I need to clean my house and get every piece of garbage I can find onto the curb
Negotiations are back on between AFSCME District Council 33, Philadelphia's largest blue-collar union, and the Parker administration as the city workers' strike enters its second day. cbsnews.com/philadelphia/n…
I hope the scab @YaFavTrashman doesn't intend on running for any political offices ever again! Picking up trash (and charging money for it on top of that) might be the clearest display of crossing the picket line I've seen during this strike yet. SCAB
Philly is a Union town - you will see Unions from across the city on the picket lines with @afscme33 tomorrow!
BREAKING: Philadelphia’s largest city worker union IS NOW ON STRIKE. Strike began at 12 midnight after a four hour negotiating session did NOT reach a tentative deal or an agreement to keep talking beyond the strike deadline.
Large majority of people I see nitpicking Mamdani over his Palestine/Israel views are in much higher tax brackets than I am... they don’t care about his campaign message because they don’t to!
just feels like every discussion is stupid. "seize the means of production," "eats rice with his hands," "he's muslim." no one cares!! we need a rigorous debate in this country on how to lower housing cost because we're all working 60 hours/ week to pay rent!
