Nobody can afford this government shutdown.

Fund the government.
Fix the health care crisis.
Put working people first.

We're ready for Starbucks to come back to the table and finish finalizing our union contracts. A single day's sales would settle contracts with 12,000 workers! Starbucks calls us "partners" - it's time they start treating us as such, or else we'll be leading our stores on strike!

Unions File Temporary Restraining Order to Block Trump Administration’s Threatened Mass Firings of Federal Workers AFSCME, AFGE ask court to block potential Trump firings

Full statement:

BREAKING: AFSCME and AFGE have filed a temporary restraining order to block the Trump administration's threats of mass firings of federal workers.

Working people don’t need “budgeting tips.” They need a fair share of the wealth they create.

I was grateful to sit down with workers from @afscme.bsky.social to hear how recent decisions out of Washington are threatening the programs they rely on.

Our government should work for working families — and that means taking real, concrete steps to protect their lifesaving health care.

MAJOR BREAKING: In a late-night order, Judge Immergut, a Trump-appointee, has BLOCKED Trump from deploying the National Guard from ANY state or D.C. into Oregon.

"WE are the many. THEY are the few."

A powerful scene out of Philly:

“Right now we are just overwhelmed by the increase in everyday living - in groceries, in fuel.” Meanwhile, extremists in Congress would rather give billionaires more tax breaks than lower costs for working families and retirees.

Today in Los Angeles. Wilshire & Curson.

📈 Rising prices, unaffordable housing, crushing medical bills—and we’re supposed to just smile through it? Not happening. Workers are coming together, demanding relief, and standing up for what’s rightfully ours. ✊

Big shoutout to all the #IBEW sisters who showed up strong at #TWBN2025. 💜 The largest gathering of tradeswomen in the world = solidarity, skill, and power on full display. Here’s to building a future where women in the trades keep leading the way. ✊

Full-time work should pay enough for housing, food, healthcare & savings. If it doesn’t, that’s not because workers aren’t doing their part—that’s because the system isn’t doing its part.
