Boston Labor Action

Menswear guy spitting 🔥

Thank you to everyone who came to testify at our hearing today! We had an incredible turnout from legislators, current and former staffers, and labor leaders. Here are some of our favorite moments 🧵

@aramark.bsky.social workers at Fenway Park extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to @sanders.senate.gov for uplifting their ongoing contract fight for fair wages, job security & respect. The Fenway family say the man with the mittens is welcome at America's favorite ballpark any season! #FeelTheBern🔥

📚✊ On the first day of classes, Brandeis part-time faculty welcomed students on campus while calling attention to their fight for a strong contract. PT faculty teach hundreds of courses every year—Brandeis works because they do!

It’s move-in day at @tufts.edu and SMFA Professors of the Practice (PoPs) are making their voices heard! 📢 Since April 2024, PoPs have been negotiating their first union contract—but Tufts still refuses to offer them a livable wage.

Today, we joined the MA TPS Committee in denouncing the latest federal attack on TPS recipients; this time, calling out their latest appeal to overturn the decision that protects Honduran, Nepalese, and Nicaraguan TPS holders.

We will always stand in solidarity w/ TPS holders.

This Labor Day, we are celebrating in style with a fun and festive parade in the city of Boston! 🥳🎉

We are going big, so save the date: Monday, September 1! 🗓

Looking forward to seeing the many union and community organizations marching along

✊ DMH workers and labor allies were out picketing today for safe conditions at DMH-Fuller! No one should have to work or receive services in extreme heat. Sign the petition to demand safer conditions for all: act.seiu.org/a/heat-petition

We were proud to stand in Boston today with
@mayorwu.boston.gov, @markey.senate.gov, and other civic leaders as the mayor answered a letter from AG Bondi
demanding Boston comply with more immigration enforcement: "Boston will never backdown from being a beacon of freedom and a home to everyone."

@aramark-usa.bsky.social workers at Fenway Park & MGM Music Hall have authorized a strike. Workers are fighting for living wages, limits on automation, increased gratuity for Premium workers, & fair scheduling. A strike at the ballpark could occur at any time, so stay tuned! #StrikeReady #GoSox

An injury to one is an injury to all. Release our union brother David Huerta NOW! #FreeDavidEndRaids

David Huerta advocated for immigrant workers—and now he’s behind bars.
ICE wants us to be afraid.

But we are united, and we are taking action in LA. #FreeDavidEndRaids

Reminder: As the House of Representatives votes on the FY26 budget, staffers are working ridiculous hours – and without any overtime pay.

A union can help with that.
