You in fact can't talk about the history of the labor movement without talking about multi-ethnic coalitions. The International Ladiesβ Garment Workersβ Union was initially composed of Jewish and Italian immigrants, but later grew to Black, Puerto Rican, Chinese, and Filipino workers.

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations.
If you're 45, that number is 74.7%.
If you're under 28, the number is 100%.
Happy Labor Day.

This Day in Labor History: August 25, 1935. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters signed its first contract with the Pullman Car Company, breaking that companyβs long anti-union history and providing a breakthrough for Black workers in America. Let's talk labor and civil rights together!

When pro-democracy forces retake power in America, we should consider the Supreme Court an anti-democratic, anti-constitutional entity that is an enemy of rule by the people.
They have destroyed any trust or legitimacy for the court. It must be fundamental restructured.

Unironically they should buy up the domains for about 60 defunct local newspapers in swing states. Hire two reporters to write almost exclusively about highschool sports and new restaurants opening with every 10th article about how the local GOP is screwing over people.

A trillion-dollar cut to healthcare wonβt help working families. But it will help fund billionaire tax handouts.
That's why WINS members are in DC to demand they vote βNOβ on Medicaid cuts.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

Hey, Congress:
PROTECT OUR JOBS.

When federal public services are gutted, state workers are often asked to step in.
But itβs impossible for our already understaffed state workers to make up for these cuts. Tell Congress to stand up and stop hiding at: coloradowins.org/standup
