The rich want to pit neighbor against neighbor. They want a disorganized, hopeless working class, grinding out thankless shifts for bad pay and fighting for scraps in a rigged system. Weβre not going to take it anymore.
Thank you to my brothers & sisters at @uaw.org for your support. βπΌ #Solidarity

There's a reason why the rich and powerful always tell us the solution to our problems is to tax them less.

It's obscene that Maine firefighters' pay & benefits aren't keeping up with the times.
As Senate President, I sent a bill to the governor's desk to give them and other public workers more bargaining power. She vetoed it twice.
As Governor, I will sign this damn bill into law. #Solidarity

From the gas pump to the grocery store, Americans are facing a severe cost-of-living crisis. For the last 40 years, the billionaire class has been taking everything and leaving everybody else to fight for the scraps.

My only special interest group is the working class of Maine. Always has been, always will be. Solidarity forever.

βWe need the party to get on board and say no to dark money in our primaries.β
Troy Jackson is rejecting dark and corporate money in his run for Maine Governor - and challenging his opponents to do the same.
Heβs watched corporate cash kill bills to cut drug prices and raise wages.

During the Great Migration, tens of thousands of Black families moved from the Jim Crow South to Cleveland for steel, auto, and manufacturing jobs.
Neighborhoods like Central, Hough, and Glenville became cultural and political hubs, laying the foundation for modern Black Cleveland.

Divided, we are powerless. Together, we can't be stopped. The oligarchs know that, and they live in fear of what'll happen when enough of us find out at the same time. #Solidarity

Trump lied through his teeth so he and his buddies could rip us off even more.
To fight back, we can't just take on Trump. We have to go straight at the elite scumbags who truly run things, no matter what president or governor they need to buy.
Thanks for the great discussion, @meidastouch.com.

Bernie Sanders is right. The people on top want us to believe weβre powerless, that our voices donβt matter.
They know theyβre lying, and theyβre terrified of whatβll happen when enough of us find that out at the same time.
