Today, we honor those who have passed on the job. We will also elevate safe jobs and raise our collective voice to protect what we have—confronting attacks on regulations that keep our workplaces safe and demanding action to win stronger protections!

SOLIDARITY FRIDAY: We stand with our union siblings at UAW Local 2406 working at Daimler Truck in Memphis! Their contract is set to expire tonight. Stay tuned for news from @UAW about what steps are next! Tennessee labor's got your back!
The Daimler Truck contract that’s set to expire affects our union siblings in Memphis at UAW Local 2406! Let’s tune in tomorrow!

The Nashville CLC team had so much fun at the NALC Branch 4 Bowlathon!
Darryl Pace: My place is not to be protected by the union. It is to use the tools that the union has afforded me to fight for the rights of myself and fight for the rights of my brothers and sisters.
Jacob Morrison: Organize The South has been a slogan for decades in the labor movement and the left for decades...Just that, a slogan, until now. Until what happened last night in Chattanooga with Volkswagen and UAW winning an absolutely historic union election [crowd goes wild].

Today, I joined fellow governors in opposing the UAW's unionization campaign. We want to keep good-paying jobs & continue to grow the American auto manufacturing sector. A successful unionization drive will stop this growth in its tracks, to the detriment of American workers.

Shaun's right, times are changing. Stories like his of struggling to put food on the table while working 2 jobs are exactly why unionizing Tennessee & the south as a whole are so crucial. #UnionsForAll
We talked to a Volkswagen worker in Tennessee who does DoorDash after work. The giant automaker generated $19.6 billion in profits last year, but some of its U.S. employees are working two jobs. Today they could win their election to unionize with the @UAW.
