"We're humans, not robots." Before today's AI forum on Capitol Hill we spoke with Darryl Richardson, whose experience as an @amazon warehouse worker and @BAmazonUnion organizer remind us why every worker, in all sectors of the economy, should have the power of a union.
Workers keep our economy moving--they deserve respect and a voice in how their jobs and workplaces are negatively impacted by unregulated and unfettered automation and digititalization.

AI/digital tech should make our jobs safer & better, not displace or harm us. @AFLCIO president @LizShuler is here to tell Congress that American workers are the engine of our economy and valued partners in designing and developing tech in the workplace. npr.org/2023/09/13/119…
Hey @wmata, let’s talk about how filthy your buses are—Case in point, bus #5505, S2 route. Supporting public transit would be so much easier on clean buses!!
Excited to be talking about digital tech and jobs with @AFLCIO affiliates and @LizShuler: “shaping the future of work with excitement and power!”
Jordan Neely was 30. He deserved to grow old.

It's #EqualPayDay — an approximate measure of just how many months into the new year a woman has to work for her earnings to catch up with what a man made in the prior year. Today, and always, it's equality — period.
Why Poverty Persists in America? It's because "we have not confronted the unrelenting exploitation of the poor in the labor, housing and financial markets." nytimes.com/2023/03/09/mag…
With the end of pandemic emergency food aid, SNAP participants will have an average of $82 less in their food budgets/month. More than 10% of households are food insecure in the US. There are no excuses for funding cuts to anti-hunger programs in the richest county in the world.

We can afford... paid leave healthcare for all universal education community care programs & more We just need to make the rich and corporations pay their fair share.
30 years ago, American families benefitted from the #FMLA30. 40% of American workers today still don’t get a single paid leave day to be with sick kids, recover from an illness and take care of loved ones. #PaidLeaveForAll now!!!
Democrats are focused on helping the American people. MAGA Republicans only have extremism in mind.

Poverty rates for older adults are rising--coupled with high interest rates and rising costs of necessities such as healthcare. My colleague @Prof_CEW talks about the impacts of credit and debt on this population: forbes.com/sites/christia…

ooo on squishy finger duty for the foreseeable you’re in good hands (pun intended) with @Bilalbay and @KittyRichardsDC for all things Groundwork
"We're humans, not robots." Before today's AI forum on Capitol Hill we spoke with Darryl Richardson, whose experience as an @amazon warehouse worker and @BAmazonUnion organizer remind us why every worker, in all sectors of the economy, should have the power of a union.
Everyone needs to remember the name Jaahnavi Kandula. She was a 23 year old student who was hit and killed by speeding Seattle police earlier this year. Other cops were then caught laughing about her death and calling her "limited value." She leaves behind a single mom in India
NOW: Students at #UNChapelHill are taking shelter in the same exact classrooms, at the same exact time as they were TWO WEEKS AGO. The same politicians that mocked us yesterday, demanding change, are letting us live in fear AGAIN today. Their apathy is our hell.
Sadly, a @PowerAtWorkBlog blogcast being misused to attack and misrepresent @rweingarten's argument about the assault on public education and school teachers. Don't rely on this clip taken out of context. Watch the full interview and decide for yourself: poweratwork.us/randi-weingart….
Teachers Union boss @rweingarten compares the fight for parental rights to segregation: “Those same words that you heard in terms of wanting segregation post Brown v. Board of Education, those same words you hear today [such as] parental rights.”
Dear Senator Manchin, Numbers don’t lie, man. Because YOU let the child tax credit lapse, child poverty has increased from 5.2% to 12.4%. Great job. And I mean that with sarcasm and incandescent rage. Democrats can get MILLIONS out of poverty and win BIG in November if we just…
I applaud @SenSchumer for an important first step in ensuring AI is not only safe but also works for workers. There are many conversations still to come and throughout the process the interests of working people must be Congress’ North Star.
Technology must be used to improve all of our jobs, not to harm or displace us. Hear from @AFLCIO @LizShuler, who is meeting today with elected officials, labor leaders & tech CEOs to discuss the future of work.
Ed Stackhouse is a @CODE_CWA member and one of the Google Raters who was unjustly fired on May 31 for speaking out on unfair working conditions. On June 23, he was reinstated. He’s here with us today in DC to share his story — and why working people must have a say in AI.
As we head into today’s AI insight forum, you’re going to hear a lot about Big Tech’s ‘best and brightest’—but what they won’t tell you about are the data workers across the globe who are overworked, underpaid, and intensely surveilled. I’m demanding answers.
Scoop: Dems including @EdMarkey, @RepJayapal & @ewarren just wrote to firms including Amazon, Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft & IBM, pressing for info on their use of AI "ghost work," urging they “must not build AI on the backs of exploited workers” bloomberg.com/news/articles/… w/@dinabass
Today, leaders from @WGAWest, @AFLCIO, @AFTunion will participate in the kickoff event for @SenSchumer's AI Insight Forum. This is the first time labor leaders and tech CEOs—including Elon Musk & Mark Zuckerberg— will meet under the same roof to discuss the future of work. #1u
Fun fact: Every government shutdown in the last 30 years occurred when Republicans had control of the House of Representatives. Last time it happened, it drove people to food pantries and forced an $8b hit to the economy. They treat people missing paychecks like it’s no big deal
Last year was the SINGLE LARGEST RECORDED INCREASE in poverty* The biggest culprit? The expiration of the improvements to the child tax credit. 👏Poverty 👏is 👏 a 👏policy 👏choice 👏 *using supplemental measure that incorporates public policies
Today we are calling on lawmakers in Congress to provide necessary funding by passing the Child Care Stabilization Act, introduced in the Senate by @PattyMurray & @SenSanders and in the House by @rosadelauro & @WhipKClark.
A modern day robber baron, caught on tape saying the quiet part out loud. It doesn't have to be like this. It won't be like this. There will always be more of us than there are of them & collective organizing—UNIONS—are our best tool to ensure working people get our fair share.
Property developer and CEO Tim Gurner: "We need to see unemployment rise. Unemployment has to jump 40, 50 percent in my view. We need to see pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around."
Technology must be used to improve all of our jobs, not to harm or displace us. Hear from @AFLCIO @LizShuler, who is meeting today with elected officials, labor leaders & tech CEOs to discuss the future of work.
