@IFPTE
A union advocating for workers in professional and technical occupations. Fine us on Bluesky @ifpte.bsky.social
IFPTE filed Unfair Labor Practice (ULP) charges against the U.S. Department of Defense and Department of the Army after identifying over 30 instances where both the DoD and the Army have failed to honor IFPTE’s National Consultation Rights (NCR). ifpte.org/news/ifpte-int…
TVA is permitted by the NRC to implement the first Small Modular Reactors in the US. Yet the private sector is looking to break TVA apart. @RealDonaldTrump - reject TVA privatization!

"Privatizing TVA is a direct attack on union jobs, affordable power, and the public good. We will not sit back while they try to sell out our future" - @IAMAWSouth General Vice President Craig Martin timesfreepress.com/news/2025/jul/…
According to yesterday’s Chattanooga @TimesFreePress poll, 97% are against the Trump Administration privatizing TVA. TVA workers are uniquely skilled, ready and able. @RealDonaldTrump needs to protect low energy rates for his voters by rejecting TVA privatization.
Thank you for the support, Gay! A supermajority of us agree: “It’s better in a union.” Recognize us now, @CarnegieEndow! @danbbaer @AlisonMarkovitz @NonprofitUnion @IFPTE

Thank you Amy! This means so much. We are so grateful for your support and @NonprofitUnion. Recognize us now, @CarnegieEndow! @danbbaer @AlisonMarkovitz
President Amy Chin-Lai joins @carnegieworkers in calling on @carnegieendow to voluntarily recognize their employees' union. Don't stand in the way of workplace democracy, #RecognizeOurUnionNow!! #DemocracyAtCarnegie @danbbaer @AlisonMarkovitz
RECOGNIZE NOW! More than a month since we went public, Carnegie management has continued to drag their feet, and we still have no answer about whether they will do the right thing and voluntarily recognize us. @CarnegieEndow @danbbaer @AlisonMarkovitz @NonprofitUnion @IFPTE
Hands off of TVA! TVA and its Unionized workforce are perfectly capable of meeting the demands of new technologies, including SMRs and AI. Tennessee voters supporter you @DonaldTrump. Don’t privatize TVA and increase their rates by 12-15%!
Led by AFL-CIO President, Liz Shuler, Secretary-Treasurer, Fred Redmond, and several labor leaders across sectors, including IFPTE President, Matt Biggs, the American labor movement kicked off the “It’s Better In a Union” Bus Tour this week ifpte.org/news/its-bette…

For working people, freedom means earning a decent living. Freedom means fair pay for a hard day’s work. Freedom means the ability to stand together in a union. Join America’s unions on the road this summer as we fight for ALL workers’ freedoms.
Make no mistake, this big, ugly bill will not only deny tens of millions of Americans healthcare and food assistance, but it will also starve states of critically needed federal resources, leading to the shuttering of hospitals nationwide.ifpte.org/news/ifpte-exe…
The House has one last chance to stand with working people, not billionaires and giant corporations. Working people need health care more than the rich need another tax break. Tell Congress: no cuts that hurt working families! act.aflcio.org/call_campaigns…
"Senate Republicans have passed a nightmare of a bill that causes 17 million Americans to lose healthcare and millions more to lose food assistance... The disasters this bill unleashes will hurt all of us..." ifpte.org/news/ifpte-con…
On this first day of July 2025, the 90,000 members of the International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers (IFPTE) across North America honour Canada Day. ifpte.org/news/the-true-…
My final WaPo Post Federal Insider posted today. It’s a tribute to the many accomplishments of feds, even in the face of Trump’s harsh attacks. Restrictions on commentary in Post columns led me to say farewell. DM me if you want to stay in touch. bit.ly/3TfxJ9N
