Media mavens, take note! We are hiring a domestic Communications Director to own our print, digital, and broadcast media strategy. 7+ years exp required. Closing 5/23. Apply today. 👇🏽 i.mtr.cool/ertkihtqiu
For more than a decade we've fought to raise wages and standards for low-wage workers across the country. We've won raises for millions of workers, and developed new ways for workers to represent and empower ourselves!. We continue that fight today. We Fight For A Union!
The Fight for $15 is changing its name to Fight for a Union

NEW: The US jobs recovery surpassed expectations with ✨5.8M more workers ✨employed above its pre-pandemic level. The CBO thought we'd only see this many jobs by 2029, but the labor market said, "Hold my beer." @DeanBaker13 and Alex Richwine explain: cepr.net/job-growth-sin…

ICYMI: Everyone should have clean air. It’s wild that this is a debate in 2024. Investing in better ventilation & air filtration prevents so many illnesses (INCL. #COVID) and saves lives. @hayleycbbrown’s new analysis explains. i.mtr.cool/fznlbqlthi
➡️The federal govt has been a pathway to middle-class jobs for #BlackAmericans. This might soon change. If Trump is reelected, its admin threatens to close this avenue of upward mobility for the foreseeable future. @algernon_austin explains: i.mtr.cool/rxjuebzcqt
The Q1 2024 numbers are out, and here’s the lowdown: 📌There's no real evidence of a recession 📌Wage growth had slowed to near the pre-pandemic pace 📌Concerns about inflation remain—though unclear if above pre-pandemic levels More from @DeanBaker13: cepr.net/first-quarter-…
Let’s get one thing straight: Trump-aligned conservatives aren't looking to make the govt better or more efficient—they want to create a govt that works for Trump. @algernon_austin’s report unpacks the potential loss of jobs for the Black middle class: bit.ly/BlackJobsThreat
It's time to close the tip credit loophole ‼️ $7.25 isn't a living wage either and service workers aren't even getting that! Do you know our mission? It's to raise the wage with tips on top. Our next stop? Michicgan! via @ceprdc
A new Trump admin could cost the Black middle-class tens of THOUSANDS of jobs. How? A MAGA-empowered govt would eliminate Black workers in several federal agencies, offices & programs. Potential loss of federal jobs analysis by @algernon_austin 👇🏽 : bit.ly/BlackJobsThreat
NEW: Public sector jobs are vital for Black economic mobility. Trump's pitiful record of Black appointments jeopardizes this path, while Biden has nominated 10x more Black judges - protecting opportunities. #JobsReport @algernon_austin’s report is out: bit.ly/BlackJobsThreat
