When workers come together across industries to form our unions, we can overcome the divisions pedaled by billionaires and build a better America. #FamiliesFirst #SolidaritySeason

During a global pandemic, cleaning staff were on the frontlines ensuring other essential workers who kept showing up for work had safe & clean places to workβ€”often at a risk to themselves & their families. For #NationalCustodianDay we recognize their contribution & hard work in our day-to-day lives.

It's unbelievable when the people who live off our work are telling us they can't pay us more. #FamiliesFirst #TaxTheRich

Underpaid, overworked, undervalued β€” that’s not just a boss problem, that’s a workplace problem. A union is the solution. #FamiliesFirst #Greedflation #Workmeme

They'll act like they don't know your rights, so you should know yours! If you ever think your meeting with management and HR can lead to disciplinary action, ask for your steward! #Union #WeingartenRights #workmeme

What a day! SEIU 49 members came together with unions from across the region to celebrate our strength, our unity, and the power we have when we stand side-by-side. From office, street, and hospital hallway, we know that #solidarity is alive and the PNW labor movement is putting #FamiliesFirst.

Unions do more than just improve wages and benefits. They build stronger communities and strengthen democracy. A new report from @epi.org shows that where unions thrive, communities thrive.

Imagine what we could achieve if more people had a voice at work.

Demand the EPA protect the health and safety of our families and our communities: seiu.co/4mfDP6X

Clean air and water should be a right all kids have access to, not a privilege for a handful of the ultra rich.

"Unskilled" labor is a myth told by businesses to devalue the essential work done every day by workers so they can pay less. Now more than ever, we need unions to raise wages and protect workers against greedy corporations. #UnionDifference

Self-interested politicians & those who do their bidding have rigged the rules against workers & working people for far too long. Now they’re trying to take federal workers’ right to a union. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! seiu.co/VASUP #UnionStrongForVets πŸ’ͺ🏿πŸ’ͺ🏽πŸ’ͺ🏻

Our government shouldn't be handing out tax cuts to billionaires while families have to choose between paying rent or buying groceries.

Our families deserve better. When billionaires decide elections, working families lose. It's time to put the power back in the hands of people. #FamiliesFirst

The working class is fed up with a system where greedy top CEOs make 285x what workers make. The ultra-wealthy are taking more and more while working people live paycheck to paycheck.

It’s time that ALL workers got the freedom, fairness and security we need and deserve.

Union meetings are ⭐PROTECTED⭐! As long as it doesn't disrupt the work, they can be held in break rooms and other non-work areas.

Disability justice is worker justice. When we fight for accessible workplaces, flexible policies, and respect on the job, everyone benefits. Solidarity means making room for all workers to thrive. ✊
