The Centre County GOP Chair couldn't wait to turn the tragic deaths of American steelworkers into a partisan attack on worker protections.

Turning working people's lives into partisan talking points while their families are grieving is vile and wrong, period. www.centredaily.com/opinion/lett...

A letter from the 7 Mts officers to @fetterman.senate.gov and Senator Dave McCormick advocating for illegally detained @seiuca.bsky.social President David Huerta, asking that they support California’s Congressional delegation in securing his release and demanding an investigation into his arrest.

Our Chapter was proud to stand with grad workers organizing with @uaw.org as they picketed on May Day for their right to a union election.

Penn State needs to drop their objections and stall tactics and let graduate workers exercise their democratic right to form and join a union.
