WV AFL-CIO President Josh Sword will be a guest on #Talkline w/@HoppyKercheval at 11:06 to talk about the cruel and unneeded unemployment legislation moving in the Senate. #wvpol Listen: wvmetronews.com
Here's the first Senate vote on cruel legislation to take away critical unemployment benefits from West Virginia workers who've been laid off due to no fault of their own - thanks to Senator Mike Caputo for objecting to the bills being read a first time. A "Nay" vote is the RIGHT…

The votes are in! Kroger members working under our West Virginia contract voted 1,347–229 (85%) to authorize a strike. For now, we are not on strike. We are reaching out to the company and will have an update on next steps later today. Press release: ufcw400.org/2024/03/01/kro…
YEARS of research, tests, concealment data, and accuracy analysis has all led to this...

Just after closures result in hundreds of layoffs, Senate Finance moves bills to scale back safety net story: wvmetronews.com/2024/02/24/jus…
Cutting unemployment benefits and making it harder to get snap benefits right when 2 major companies lay off almost 2000 ppl is dirty. They just slapped all of our blue-collar workers and middle class in the face. @EricJTarr4WV and the @WVGOP should be ashamed of themselves.
Senate Republicans have the gall to run a bill cutting 14 weeks of unemployment benefits as 1,500 workers across WV learn of impending layoffs. The bills re: expanding childcare appear to be dead. But no worries, more divisive and harmful bills coming up. #WorstWVSessionEver
The theme for the first day of the legislative session on Wednesday was "West Virginia Building and Construction Trades." About 30 tables were set up on both sides of the rotunda for the event. trib.al/cm8FMKF
A friendly reminder as session begins today that there are *thousands* of bills introduced each year and only a couple hundred are seriously considered. Even fewer become law!! Do not waste energy getting upset about things before they gain traction. These 60 days are very long!
We’re kicking off the first in a series of meetings this week with members working under our Kroger West Virginia contract. We’re ready to fight for our best contract in YEARS! Join us at a meeting near you: ufcw400.org/2023/12/12/jan…
Our dear friend Kenny Perdue was an unwavering leader for West Virginia workers and working families. Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with President Perdue’s loved ones and our @WestVirginiaAFL family. wvnews.com/news/wvnews/we…
