@seiu.org members from Local 73, @seiuhcii.bsky.social, @seiulocal1.bsky.social and allies across Illinois kick off our Justice Journey to demand Freedom, Family, and Justice.

Kat Stewart, an @seiuhcii.bsky.social member, knows the power of #Medicaid and how devastating the impending cuts will be on Missouri families. #NoBillionaireBailout #TaxJustice #Missouri

Happy Freedom Day!

#Juneteenth marks the day — June 19, 1865 — when the last enslaved African Americans in Galveston, TX, learned of their freedom.

Through our union, we will continue to fight for freedom and justice for all: no matter what we look like, where we come from, or who we love.

DAVID IS RELEASED and with his family! He still faces an unjust felony charge.

While we’re relieved that David is out after three nights in detention, we demand the Trump regime drop the unjust charge against him & end the raids! seiu.co/endraids #FreeDavidEndRaids

“We are relieved that David is free and reunited with his family and we are deeply grateful to the hundreds of elected officials, civil rights leaders, labor partners and allies from across the nation who stood in solidarity...” @seiupres.bsky.social, April Verrett's full statement: seiu.co/3ZYw24f

ICE’s brutal, military-style tactics have no place in our communities.

We demand safety. We demand respect.

We demand David’s release.
#FreeDavidEndRaids

This isn’t just about David.

It’s about the right to organize. The right to speak out.
The right to be safe. The right to be treated like a human.

From this rally in Chicago to actions across the country—we won’t back down.

#FreeDavidEndRaids

We stand with David, and all those targeted and impacted based on their national origin or color of their skin, in solidarity on "the right side of justice."

We at SEIU Healthcare IL IN MO KS join in the widespread outrage that our union brother, David Huerta, was attacked, injured and detained while standing up to the unjust and cruel treatment of members of our communities…

Support our seniors - home care workers are a lifeline for Illinois seniors! Cuts to Medicaid will take away the care seniors depend on for life & health. Cuts will destroy people's jobs!

“We are the workers of Missouri. Know that nobody should have to choose between their health and earning a paycheck. We’re going to have to keep fighting. No matter what color you are: one sound, one demand.”

In Springfield with private home care agency workers asking ‘where’s that raise at?’

We're outside the for-profit ICE detention center where our union sibling Rümeysa Öztürk is being held unjustly, simply for expressing her beliefs. No one should be locked up for exercising their rights. Free Rümeysa and all those unjustly detained! #4the1st

BREAKING: 1,500 grad workers at the University of Rochester are ON STRIKE.

They teach, research & run labs but the administration refuses to respect their right to unionize. After months of delays, they’re taking action.

We stand with them in the fight for a fair process. #UofRStrike

Today, we uphold his legacy by recommitting ourselves to our fight for the rights and dignity of all workers, to the eradication of poverty-wage work, and to winning justice for all who come here seeking a better future for their families.

Que viva Pope Francis

SEIU members were there when Pope Francis visited the White House for the first time in 2015, introducing himself as the son of immigrants.

AARP Illinois' Lori Hendren calls the staffing at nursing homes a "moral crisis." She says we need to hold the nursing home industry accountable. #CareCantWait

We're talking about women, black women, who are putting themselves on the line for our seniors. -@Senator Collins #CareCantWait

People need to ask themselves, says Senator Collins, do we want to change the system now or do you want to him to live in this system one day. #nursinghomes #CareCantWait #twill

Things need to change, says Senatpr Collins. These fines should have been put in place 14 years ago. #CareCantWait

Who's responsible for short-staffing? Nursing home management, Senator Lakesia Collins says. They create the schedules, they set the wages.

Latrina fights back tears as she says "I want to go to work in peace and go home in peace. We're always short-staffed." #carecantwait #twill #nursinghomes

1 in 5 nursing homes in Illinois are staffed below the minimum levels. #carecantwait
