UPDATEβ€”Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

It wasn't a secret that Trump is hostile to unions & workers and his NLRB would roll back Biden's protections, and yet 45% of union households and 52% of people making $30k-$99k voted for it.

Not sure what the electoral solution is. People don't want nice things, they want to see others suffer. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

Protectβ€”don’t wreckβ€”our children’s futures As President Donald Trump and Elon Musk swing a wrecking ball at the U.S. Department of Education, I’m wondering if it’s due to a lack of understanding of the department’s vital functions, or because ...

DOGE is hurting working people, plain and simple.

Federal workers are members of our communities who work hard for this country, but right now they are in fear for their jobs. It’s not right.

These are some of their stories.

The NLRB protects workers’ right to form unions in their workplaces. President Trump illegally firing Gwynne Wilcox from the NLRB effectively shuts down their operations.

This is bad for working people and good for bosses that want to deny workers’ their right to organize.
