It was great to spend some time with @girmayzahilay.bsky.social in Kent today to hear his vision for how King County can support the needs of working families. 🏘️

Despite years of union busting, store closures, and layoffs, @sbworkersunited.org continues their historic fight to change their industry.

Starbucks will not turn around the company until it comes to the table with the 12,000 unionized baristas to reach a fair contract.

Executive Secretary-Treasurer Katie Garrow recently delivered the keynote address at UFCW 1518’s annual conference in Vancouver, BC.

She spoke about how King County unions are defending immigrant workers and fighting against the billionaire takeover of our government.

Energy Dept. Cancels $7.5 Billion for Hundreds of Projects, Mostly in Blue States

The reckless decisions from the Trump Administration are killing thousands of good, union jobs in Washington State and across the country.

It was an honor to join the Drivers Union for their annual Voices for Fairness event this afternoon. This event celebrated the many accomplishments of app-based drivers and their communities in the past year. 🎉

Join Starbucks workers this MONDAY for a protest and rally at the company headquarters.

@sbworkersunited.org is fighting back against the announced layoffs and store closures, including two unionized locations in Seattle.

Let's make it BIG!! ✊☕️

The Trump administration would rather shut down our government than address the looming health care crisis.

Working families cannot afford a 114% spike in health insurance costs. It's time to fix this crisis and fund the government.

Seattle Children's nurses deserve a fair contract, and you better believe they're going to win.

Last week, @cascadepbsnewsroom.bsky.social announced it would close and lay off 9 union journalists, despite paying its CEO >$500k.

This shortsighted move is a major blow to local journalism.

If this upsets you too, send a letter to Cascade PBS executives: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

Thank you to everyone who joined us this morning for the first Labor Neighbor canvass of the general election season!

We have canvasses for union members every weekend until election day. Find one near you: www.mlklabor.org/featured/202...

Seattle Children's nurses have an informational picket Tuesday to demand fair wages, dedicated break nurses, and protection from workplace violence.

Children's has refused to offer nurses a fair contract and hired a prominent anti-union law firm.

Come show your support! 🪧

Starbucks abruptly closes 2 Seattle stores "While this was a difficult decision to make, we remain dedicated to serving you," Starbucks said in a memo posted at the Capitol Hill location's shuttered entrance.

Starbucks' $100 million CEO continues to double down on a failed top-down strategy, disregarding the input of baristas who serve customers every day. www.seattletimes.com/business/sta...

KIRO-7 photojournalists put themselves in dangerous situations to bring us breaking news.

Now they need our help to fight back against KIRO's proposed staff cuts and raises that won't keep up with inflation.

After years of bargaining, 12,000+ unionized baristas still don't have a contract. It's time for Starbucks and its $100M CEO to do the right thing and get a deal done.

The Labor Community stands with @sbworkersunited.org and will do what it takes to help them win a fair contract.

Today, @ufcw_3000 held a town hall to talk about access to fresh and affordable groceries. This comes after Kroger announced that four Fred Meyer stores across our region would be shutting down.

Grocery workers refuse to accept that these corporate decisions are inevitable.

Starbucks can afford to do right by Seattle baristas. Instead, they’re firing dedicated baristas, stonewalling contract negotiations, and telling workers to file for unemployment.

Join us on September 22 at noon to stand with @sbworkersunited.org!

2025 is a huge year for local elections!

We have Labor Neighbor events every weekend starting September 27 to knock doors for pro-worker candidates. Let's make a difference! 🗳️

MLK Labor is proud to update our endorsement in the Seattle mayoral race to support both Mayor Harrell and now, Katie Wilson.

A dual endorsement shows both candidates have earned meaningful support from working people and accurately reflects the views of Seattle union members.

It's a packed house for our September Delegate Meeting! The Labor Movement is strong in King County. 🔥

MLK Labor Executive Secretary-Treasurer Katie Garrow addressed the @weareliuna.bsky.social NW Contractor Luncheon last week to highlight how the building trades, construction industry, and labor community can work to create family-wage union careers and strong communities across our region.

At the @aflcio.org's Western Region Convening, MLK Labor Executive Secretary-Treasurer Katie Garrow joined leaders from @sbworkersunited.org & @cwaunion.bsky.social to discuss how workers are building power through organizing.

Today’s jobs report shows the Trump admin’s policies are slowing job creation, increasing unemployment and disproportionately harming Black workers. America’s unions will keep fighting for all workers to have the freedom, fairness and security they need. aflcio.org/press/releas...
