The CDC now says you should organize a union because clearly no one else is looking out for your health and safety

TODAY: Care workers, doctors, advocates & Senator @CreighDeeds spoke out to highlight the devastating impact of Trump’s Medicaid cuts for rural Virginians Meanwhile, Lt. Gov Winsome Earle-Sears says Trump’s bill “does many great things,” once again attacking working Virginians

Trump + the Virginia GOP are fanning the flames of anti-trans, anti-Semitic, anti-Muslim, racist bigotry to wage war on ALL public school students from kindergarten to college, their families & their educators. Don’t let them get away with it. Hold them accountable in 25 & 26!

Axios reports that Trump Medicaid cuts threaten Virginia hospitals and free clinics. Meanwhile, GOP Gov candidate Winsome Earle-Sears praised the bill and her running mate John Reid says Virginians losing health care isn’t his “immediate problem.” axios.com/local/richmond…

How do I know a Virginia candidate isn’t a serious candidate? They spend more time ranting about California, Maryland and NYC than they do actually talking about Virginia.

Good union jobs make your community a better place for all, whether you have a union job or not When workers have the right to organize & bargain, we all benefit from better services & stronger economies Organize your workplace or support local workers today! #UnionsForAll

Let’s be clear: Winsome Earle-Sears, John Reid, and Jason Miyares can’t stop talking about California, New York and Maryland because they have no vision for Virginia working families. These are not serious candidates.

GOP Gov candidate Winsome Sears offers no help to Virginians losing their health care, just tells them: “don’t panic” GOP Lt Gov candidate John Reid says 300,000 Virginians losing care is “not my immediate problem” These candidates are not fit to lead 13newsnow.com/article/news/l…

Youngkin: Firing Virginians is good Youngkin: Higher tariffs & costs are good Youngkin: Kicking Virginians off their health care is good Youngkin: Slashing funding for rural hospitals is good Also Youngkin: What do you mean we’re not the best state for business?! 😭😭😭

During Winsome Earle-Sears’ tenure as Lt Governor, Virginia: ❌ Lost “best state for business” ranking ❌ Fell in “best state for workers” ranking ❌ Blocked pay increases and paid family leave for workers And now she wants to be Governor? Hell no!

All people deserve dignity. All work has value. All working people deserve a living wage. It’s that simple.

VA GOP Lt. Gov candidate John Reid says that 300,000 Virginians losing health care is the “number one thing” he’s hearing on the campaign trail and yet calls it “not my immediate problem” This is shameful and should be disqualifying. End of story. youtube.com/watch?v=Qs5B1Q…

Republicans’ Big Ugly Budget could force half a dozen rural hospitals in Virginia to close their doors permanently — making it that much harder for Virginians to get the care they need. One of those hospitals is the Southern Virginia Regional Medical Center in Emporia. If that…

While Republicans ripped away Medicaid from thousands of Virginians, @JasonMiyaresVA did nothing to protect it – even choosing not to join a group of attorneys general in defending Medicaid recipients. Now, Virginia will see the “largest shares of Medicaid dollars evaporate.”…

ICYMI: ⁦@RichmonderNews⁩ profiles city contracted workers’ fight for a living wage “Raising the min wage is a tiny fraction of the city’s budget, but for me & many others, it can mean the difference between stability and falling deeper into poverty” richmonder.org/room-to-breath…

Medicaid cuts are already limiting options for rural North Carolina. Will Virginia be next? And why is Winsome Sears still refusing to speak out in defense of health care for hard-working Virginians? nytimes.com/2025/07/06/us/…

Every reporter in Virginia needs to ask Winsome Earle-Sears why she stayed silent on Medicaid cuts and what she plans to do about the 322,000 Virginians expected to lose their health care.
