Proud to join and support the members of AFSCME Local 1723 yesterday at Temple University!
If you are administrative, professional or technical staff at Temple and aren’t yet a union member, join ASAP! 💪🏼❤️🔥
With an operating budget in the BILLIONS it’s appalling how little @upenn.edu thinks the incredible workers of PENN Museum Workers United deserve.
Management needs to deliver a fair contract *NOW* 💪🏼❤️🔥

Humbled to join Nikil Saval, Rick Krajewski & Amanda McIllmurray at today’s *Zomentum* panel with Philly DSA!
We *CAN* win big and build long lasting power for working people across Philadephia and Zohran Mamdani‘s historic win can help us chart the path forward 💪🏼❤️🔥

Deep congrats to my friend @meag-jae.bsky.social on two incredible years leading @phillydsa.bsky.social as co-chair.
As a fellow member of the LPC I saw Meag always lead with care and a clear vision for charting a path forward.
They are a genuine leader and I’m grateful to call them a friend ✊🏼❤️
Thrilled for Independence Seaport Museum Workers United and their huge ELECTION WIN yesterday with 91% voting *UNION YES*!
It’s been an honor to work with this group and I can’t wait to continue to support them as they build toward the contract they deserve!

Yesterday’s @phillyaflcio.bsky.social Workers Over Billionaires rally was an incredible moment of solidarity in support of working people.
Thousands were in attendance and 70 of us were arrested for participating in a sit-in. We will continue to show up ✊🏼❤️🔥

Fired up for the crew from Independence Seaport Museum Workers United! Their Union Election is next Wednesday, May 7th from 12pm-2pm.
If you’re down around the Penn’s Landing/ISM area show the workers some love! 💪🏼💪🏼❤️🔥❤️🔥 @afscmedc47.bsky.social
Deeply grateful to be a part of the organizing effort happening with the amazing folks over at Independence Seaport Museum. Incredible to see workers recognize their power and can’t wait to see how things continue to take shape through their solidarity! ✊🏼❤️🔥

Proud to stand with neighbors, activists and electeds yesterday to defend freedom of speech, to defend freedom of dissent and to demand the release of Mahmoud Khalil and others unjustly detained and/or deported during these first weeks of the 2nd Trump administration.

Petition season is here and nearly gone! It’s critical that candidates that fight for working people and families acquire enough signatures to make the ballot this year.
Stay tuned for endorsements from @phila2ndward.bsky.social ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
LETS GO BIRDS!!!! WORLD CHAMPS!!!!
So much love in Philly tonight 🎉🎉🦅🦅💚💚

After two and a half years of battling, *WE WON* !!
Fighting for working people, for working families and for our last community of color in Center City will continue to matter and we must work to grow the Save Chinatown Coalition deep into the future. 💪🏼❤️🔥

Grateful to Henry Chow and the entire Sang Kee Peking Duck House team for the amazing meal yesterday and thrilled to have been able to help @ruephilacouncil.bsky.social assist them as they navigated their closure last week.
Another reminder of the importance of protecting Chinatown 💪🏼❤️🔥
