Chief of Staff for @ShawnFainUAW & members of the mighty @UAW. Formerly @nyguild / @cwaunion & NEA & @labornotes.
UAW and KMWU sign historic agreement of cooperation and solidarity. “We’re building solidarity. We’re sharing strategies. We’re organizing together. We’re standing up for the working class—across borders, across oceans, across the world,” said UAW Region 8 Director Tim Smith at…
UAW Statement on the Republicans’ Anti-Worker Budget Reconciliation Bill Senate Republicans’ budget reconciliation bill is a gut punch to working people. Behind a smokescreen of small, short-term gains, this bill inflicts deep, lasting harm. It’s a gift to billionaires and…
Vote Zohran in the general and then get to work doubling union density in NYC over the next four years. 💪 📈 🚀
The greatest tool working people have to win dignity, power and respect is organizing. Proud to stand with my sisters and brothers in @NYHTC, @32BJSEIU, @nynurses and @CentralLaborNYC as your Democratic nominee for Mayor of New York City.
Zohran will not only be a pro-union mayor, but a pro-Organizing mayor. As unions, we’ll need to seize the moment & organize. There are thousands, if not millions, of people who have been inspired by Zohran who could turn their focus next to their workplaces with our support.
There’s no doubt about it – @ZohranKMamdani is the candidate for working New Yorkers. “To take on inequality, we know the most effective tool is union density,” said Democratic Candidate for Mayor Zohran Mamdani at our union’s headquarters this morning.

Alt: Business Leaders Aghast Mayoral Candidate Won’t Be Exclusively Under Their Control Mamdani’s highly popular social programs would benefit the general public. Will New York City’s billionaire elite ever recover?
Love my union
The working class is done with business as usual. Congratulations to the working class of NYC for showing the world that when we unite and stand up, no one can stand in our way! @ShawnFainUAW | @UAWRegion9A | @ZohranKMamdani
In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.
If you’re looking for what labor means to this election: tonight is about @UAWRegion9A members. You are amazing. We’re making our mark on NYC not because we play politics, but because we organize and we fight instead. That’s why we’re going to make @ZohranKMamdani the next mayor
So proud of @mancillabrando and the mighty members of @UAWRegion9A who put in the work!
🗳️ UAW President Fain and our NYC members are proud to support @ZohranKMamdani. He’s not owned by Wall Street. He’s fighting for $30/hr, free transit, housing for all, and real democracy—on the job and in our communities. Rank Zohran #1 for NYC Mayor on Election Day! @UAWRegion9A
Tonight doesn’t happen without @mancillabrando who has led @UAWRegion9A to drop the broken status quo and to stand up for what’s right. UAW was proud to be the first union to endorse @ZohranKMamdani and won’t stop until we win an NYC that works for the working class.
UAW bump strikes again! ❤️❤️❤️NYC❤️❤️❤️
JUST IN: "Tonight was not our night," Cuomo says before adding that he has called Mamdani to congratulate him.

It's something else to watch the Democratic Party establishment work overtime to stifle a candidate who has joy and genuine love of place, universal and popular ideas, creative and inclusive campaigning. Good riddance -- a movement free from the baggage of the old guard.
On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park. New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.
Today's the day, NYC. UAW members say: Rank Zohran #1. @ZohranKMamdani is fighting for our present and our future: affordability, healthcare, free buses, and free childcare. #DontRankCuomo @UAWRegion9A
The billionaire class and their super PACs are scared to death that New York, the largest city in America, might actually have a mayor who stands with working families and is prepared to take on powerful special interests. Vote @ZohranKMamdani.
A message from @BernieSanders as we head into the final weekend before the election.
Many of the world's most famous economists say that Zohran Mamdani's economic policies are cost responsible and form a coherent agenda that rejects austerity and embraces the city’s power to make life more affordable for New Yorkers. thenation.com/article/econom…
