TWU

Flight Attendants are Taking Off with The TWU! New contract @SouthwestAir - Immediate 22% raises. Wages rising 34% by 2027! New contract @Allegiant - Immediate 25% raises on avg. Wages going up 41% on by 2028! Updated agreement @Jetblue wages up 17% by Jan. 2025. @TwuSamuelsen

Led by the TWU International Organizing Team & @AFLCIO Organizing Institute, dozens of Miami @twulocal291 officers participated in two days of internal training. We’re keeping members engaged, and making an already strong core of member activists even stronger! ⁦⁦

“Big Tech’s wish to ban state-level AI regulation went down big time. Giving states/cities the ability to regulate AI will keep the traveling public safer as Big Tech tries to foist autonomous vehicles on our roads.” @TwuSamuelsen

“The new contract immediately turned the Fuelers represented by the TWU from the lowest-paid Fuelers on property to the highest-paid, and provides workers with both sick time and vacation instead of a management-controlled PTO system.” @TwuSamuelsen

"The TWU supports students right to free speech and non-violent protest, but they never have the right to injure the TWU blue collar workers at Columbia in pursuit of their political goals." @TwuSamuelsen

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…

Thank you to all of our Flight Attendants on Flight Attendant Safety Professionals Day!

Tomorrow: The TWU will join our rail labor allies for a critical discussion on freight rail safety and how greedy rail carriers are putting workers and communities at risk.

Our @twulocal100 members are attacked, spat upon, verbally abused or harassed every single day. @SecDuffy is right. @mta NYC Transit workers deserve a safer system! ⁦@TwuSamuelsen⁩ abc7ny.com/post/twu-calls…

“@SecDuffy pledges to keep aircraft maintenance jobs in America by requiring foreign repair stations to follow @FAANews safety standards after questions from @RepDeLuzio. This is a big boost to hardworking TWU AMTs” @TwuSamuelsen

The @MTA in NY is playing three-card monte with crime stats. Yes, total felonies are down ~4% this year - but that’s largely because non-violent pickpocketing (grand larceny) is down. Felony assaults are UP 18%! Stop playing games, MTA. @USDOT @SecDuffy

Riding the @sfmta_muni rails with TWU Local 200, our supervisors’ local in San Francisco. International Pres. Samuelsen, Admin. VP Tate, and TUUS staff are here checking in with members and officers. Strength in unity— and the audacity to fight when necessary. @TwuSamuelsen

Bikeshare workers in San Francisco roll with The TWU of America. @twulocal320 members operate and maintain Bay Wheels, an integral part of the multimodal transportation system. ⁦@TwuSamuelsen⁩
