Happy union day! We won!
No one will know anything about Amazon's labor violations unless we publicize it ourselves. The agreement requires Amazon to notify its workers that it’s legally obligated to let them create or join a union and that it can’t retaliate. #1U #Unionizing @CDAW_National @amazonlabor
@ashleygjovik Unfair Labor Practice charges @NLRB @NLRBGC @NLRBMcFerran against @Apple provide the best vehicle to overturn previous Trump Board’s anti-worker interpretation of NLRA. ⚖️💪🏽#Apple #UnionStrong #1u

BREAKING: IATSE Members in TV and Film Production Voted to Authorize the first nationwide industry strike in our 128-year history. 98.68% voted yes, and voter turnout among eligible members was nearly 90% #IASolidarity #IATSEVoted
Convos about crunch without a larger project to inform them very quickly become about good vs bad studios/directors/games/people. When worker power, relationship to production, and economics aren't in focus you run into the same swamp that convos about workplace abuse usually do.

The workers at @UBridgeport have taken good care of the university - but when times got tough, the university failed to reciprocate. Show the workers some love and RT this post. We can only secure health care coverage with more visibility and pressure on the university.
Today is May 1st, International Workers' Day! We'd normally be hitting the pavement with fellow workers, but under the current circumstances, we figured this would be a good occasion to pause and look back on our industry's history of labor organizing ✊
Last month, a worker filed an OSHA claim after being sent home for refusing to work without gloves. OSHA settled the claim and the worker received backpay for the lost wages at a standard rate, not with bonuses. Trader Joe’s claims they never had a policy against gloves.

Our union represents hundreds of workers at the Municipal Credit Union. Management hired union-busters @JacksonLewisPC to handle contract negotiations and are, unsurprisingly, trying to cut crucial benefits--even during a pandemic. Here's an update we gave to workers.
