Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol is the embodiment of oligarchy & corporate greed.

Even with the largest CEO-to-worker pay gap in the S&P 500, he’d rather threaten our livelihoods and make stores worse to “cut costs.”

If Starbucks doesn’t finalize union contracts soon, we’re ready to STRIKE.✊

PERSPECTIVE: We urge the Chicago Board of Education to support the new CPS CEO’s balanced budget • The TRiiBE Mayor Brandon Johnson selected Dr. Macquline King, who is tackling CPS’s budget deficit without resorting to further harmful layoffs or an ill-advised loan.

The CPS funding crisis has a clear fix: Dr. King’s Balanced Budget.
We don't need a HIGH-interest loan.
Loan Today = Layoffs Tomorrow.

🧵 BREAKING! SEIU Members at HealthPartners Stillwater Medical Group Ratify Contract!

The fact that the federal minimum wage is still $7.25 is a sad indictment on a country spiraling into oligarchy.

They called it a “budget bill.”

We call it the largest health care cut in U.S. history – over $1 TRILLION ripped away from working families to fund billionaire tax breaks – which will force over 20 million Americans to pay an average of 75 percent more for their healthcare coverage.

Workers at McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, and El Pollo Loco have joined the city-wide fast food strike and the community stoppage in Los Angeles.

Our employers must stand with the community and against ICE’s campaign of terror.

Across California, we're standing up to the politicians who cut our healthcare to fuel ICE and further enrich billionaires. Signs ready, chants loud. 🪧🗣️Let’s hold them accountable! 🔥 #FamiliesFirst #SolidaritySummer

Workers at The Boeing Company are preparing to strike—not for greed but for safety, fair wages, and respect on the job.

Trump’s immigration policy shakes up the elder care sector: ‘Losing these caregivers is a profound blow’ In Florida, where immigrants make up 40% to 75% of senior care workers, the president’s campaign of mass deportations has led to a labor shortage

Americans will pay the price of the Trump administration’s decision to strip work permits from immigrant workers— especially in the care industry, where families and seniors count on us every day. #WeMakeAmericaWork

Starbucks tells us they aim to “challenge the status quo.” But under CEO Brian Niccol, the company not only rejects worker feedback, but has failed to resolve tons of outstanding legal issues for union-busting.

New Hampshire baristas took action and spoke up!
