🚨 We’re calling on all Members of Congress to sign @RepGolden’s discharge petition to force a vote on overturning Trump’s illegal EO stripping 1 million federal workers of their collective bargaining rights. If you stand with workers, now is the time to prove it.
Heard directly from @ilwulongshore President Bobby Olvera Jr. about the challenges and opportunities facing dockworkers at today's @labor_caucus meeting. Dockworkers keep our economy moving, and they deserve fair pay, safe conditions, and a voice on the job.
Met with National Nurses United to discuss the future of Medicare, efforts to expand access to care, and the impacts of the President’s reconciliation package. Look forward to our work together, pushing forward for our community.
From his advocacy work to his commitment to fostering international solidarity, Willie Adams is an example of the best of us. Thank you, Willie, for the work you've done for @ilwulongshore, ILWU 23, and our community. Congratulations on your much deserved retirement.
Last year, I made a friendly wager with a certain New York Congressman that the @minnesotalynx would win the WNBA finals. The consequence if we lost? A speech on the House floor congratulating the New York Liberty. @RepDanGoldman, today I gave you a floor speech, but not the one…
Great meeting with AFGE Local 1263 to discuss our shared support for the Protect America’s Workforce Act. Federal workers deserve a voice and basic protections on the job, just like every American.
Around here, we’re all about organized labor, Made in America manufacturing, and close-knit communities. That’s why we’re so proud to be home to @AmphenolAAO 🤝 @IAM_Union in Sidney. I was thrilled to celebrate 100 years with them today, and I’m all in for 100 more.
Thanks to @RepMichaelRulli & union rail workers for coming together for an important roundtable conversation about rail safety & worker safety. We met just a few miles from the site of Norfolk Southern's East Palestine derailment more than 2 years ago. Congress needs to pass my…
Just your daily reminder that unions are the backbone of our nation. Fighting for fair wages, safe workplaces, and dignity on the job. The Big Bonanza Bill for Billionaires attacks these rights, puts profits over people, and people out of work. We must stand up for workers, not…
Wearing this shirt with pride because our federal workers deserve respect & a real voice on the job. I’m signing on to @RepGolden’s effort to force a vote on legislation to protect collective bargaining for federal employees. Republicans must choose: stand with working people or…
1 million federal workers had their bargaining rights stripped away by this administration. I joined the discharge petition to get them back. Don’t mess with our workers. 👇🏼
We have the bill AND the votes in Congress to overturn President Trump’s executive order busting federal workers’ union rights. Call your rep and tell them to sign the discharge petition to bring the Protect America’s Workforce Act to the floor for a vote. act.aflcio.org/call_campaigns…
Sanitation workers keep our streets clean, neighborhoods safe & our families healthy. But that job puts them at risk. Republic Services needs to bargain in good faith with @Teamsters and negotiate a fair contract that respects workers’ dignity, safety & the vital role they have…
More than 2,000 Teamsters at Republic Services are currently on strike or actively honoring picket lines nationwide. Trash is going uncollected for millions. And more is to come until Republic Services offers its workers fair contracts.
President Trump’s executive order to strip federal workers of their collective bargaining rights is a clear union-busting tactic, plain and simple. @RepGolden's bill, the Protect America's Workforce Act, would overturn this executive order. We must send this bill to the House…
Trump launched the biggest attacks on labor in US history with his executive order to take away collective bargaining from federal workers. I’ve spent my life fighting for workers’ rights, at the bargaining table, on the picket line, and now in Congress. Everyone deserves the…
Federal employees keep our country running, and unions keep our federal workforce strong. We not only have an opportunity, but a moral obligation to protect workers’ rights.
