@LiUNAEasternReg
LIUNA Eastern Region encompasses 45,000+ construction & public sector union members in NYC, NJ, DE & PR. Tweets from LIUNA VP Mike Hellstrom are signed -MH.
🎥 #WATCH: Why @LIUNA's with @MikieSherrill for NJ Governor, in her own words: "I have a vision for #workers in NJ. "I'll champion PLAs. I'll demand my AG go after cheaters. I'll take bold and encouraging innovation in meeting our energy needs." More: liunaelects.org/mikie25/
"Organize, and stand together. Claim something together, and at once; let the nation hear a united demand from the laboring voice, and then, when you have got that, go on after another; but get something." — Wendell Phillips This is what #SOLIDARITY looks like! #LaborersRising
☀️Solar Work IS #Union Work, but the #BigBeautifulBill is putting those jobs at risk. @LIUNA members are facing real threats, and we need leaders like @MikieSherrill who fight for our work and our energy future.
👷♀️ #Climate jobs are #UNION JOBS!
Because of her union job, Daphne built a real career with stability and good benefits. But climate change is threatening that progress, which is why she’s proud to see unions leading the way toward a cleaner, safer future. #EnergyIndependenceMonth #LaborLeads
Wanna save the #middleclass? 🗣️ SUPPORT #UNIONS! Don't take our word for it—per @USTreasury: • Unions raise members wages by 10-15%! • Unions improve fringe benefits! • Unionization benefits help non-union workers too! More: home.treasury.gov/system/files/1…

Shyann, a member of @local79nyc, says extreme weather is already making construction work harder. She believes unions must lead the shift to clean energy to protect jobs, build careers, and create a better future. 🌎 #EnergyIndependenceMonth
🦺 Toolbox #safety talks and a focus on @LHSFNA's #sunsense program are two more parts of the @LIUNA difference in action! Thx to Local 78 for getting the word out on Staten Island!
#Local78 recently visited 2 job sites on Staten Island. Business Manager Pawel Gruchacz joined business agents, shop stewards & contractors addressing members on the importance of safety. We encourage ALL laborers to stay safe in extreme heat: Sun protection + #HYDRATE 🕶️☀️🧴🥤
✊ From building digital solidarity, to organizing through member-activist programs, to stressing the value of Labor-Contractor partnerships in putting @LIUNA members to work, the 2025 LIUNA Leadership conference is laying out a clear road ahead as we March to 1 Million Members!




Before joining @local79nyc, Eli worked unsafe non-union jobs. Now he has training, benefits, and stability to build a better future. As climate change brings extreme weather, he’s proud his union is creating good jobs and protecting our communities. #EnergyIndependenceMonth
⚡️ When @GPBrentBooker says that @LIUNA and our partners are committed to building America's energy future #Union, believe him. An excellent discussion on WHY it makes sense to build Union in the #energy sector from the Union AND the developer perspective.
Honored to join my friend @SouthernCompany CEO Chris Womack for a fireside chat at the 2025 #LIUNA Leadership Conference. We’re not on the sidelines—we’re on the frontlines. LIUNA is building the energy future. Union-built. Start to finish.
✊ The #DavisBaconAct has protected #PrevailingWages for 94 years for a reason... ...IT WORKS! The pillars of wage standards, registered apprenticeships, safe work conditions & more are built on Davis-Bacon. We won't let anyone demolish what's been ours for almost a century!

🎥 WATCH: @LIUNA VP @whosescity on the 2025 #LIUNA Leadership Conference: "[T]his #Union grows on the shoulders of our members. "That solidarity, on display every single day, as we fight, crawl & win victories along the way towards a million members." laborersrising.org
💪 A key tenet of #organizing is "go where the workers are." In 2025, that means investing in digital #solidarity and digital organizing to grow our @LIUNA power as we March to A Million members!
Union POWER is front and center at the 2025 #LIUNA Leadership Conference. Alex Aguilar is organizing @PAs_united in LA. Chelsea Fenton @thatunionlabor is turning TikTok into a tool for recruitment. David Johnson is organizing growth across the @LiUNAEasternReg.
On behalf of the more than 530,000 members of the Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA), we mourn the loss of a towering figure in our movement: our visionary leader, our union brother, and dear friend, retired @LIUNA General President Arthur A. Coia.
✊We're #InTheKnow & we've had enough of the lies: So-called "Right-to-Work" is a scam—built to silence workers, cut wages, and weaken unions like @LIUNA. We're organizing, we're growing & we're not backing down. THIS is what #LaborersRising looks like: laborersrising.org

🫵 Are YOU #ITK on #RighttoWork & organizing? In 26 states, 80 years of anti-union propaganda campaigns & "Right-to-Work" laws have tried to weaken @LIUNA's power. But we're fighting back & organizing the unorganized on our March to A Million Members!
#Local79 & members of @LiUNAEasternReg joined over 100 organizers at the 2nd annual #LaborersRising Conference in Chicago this Spring. LIUNA's best united to level up, strengthen our movement, and build real #power! Are you ready to #FeelThePower? #TBT #LiUNA #Local79 #1U
🫵 Get #ITK on how "Right-to-Work" hurts workers! On average "Right-to-Work" states have: • 15.2% lower pay • 37% higher worker fatality rates & • fewer union rights That's not a future we want anywhere near us! Fight RTW & help keep #LaborersRising: laborersrising.org
