It's time for lawyers, law students, and advocates to get serious about a theory of change that doesn't depend on persuading a few unelected, unaccountable elites that we should have basic rights. That's what #PPP24 is all about. We hope to see you there: peoplesparity.org/event/2024conv…

Read @ShawnFainUAW on the significance of May Day, including the UAW's plan to strike on May Day 2028. ➡️ inthesetimes.com/article/may-da… While May 2028 is still 4 years away, this year join the following May Day rallies sponsored by our locals & community partners across Region 9A. 🧵
Senator, word of advice: Take your message to the candidates, not the communities whose families are being slaughtered. Arab Americans aren’t on the ballot in November - Biden and Trump are. Not going to be lectured by someone who believes Palestinian lives are disposable.

“I’m here to set the record straight as a proud union man born and raised here. I can tell you this: these out-of-touch lawmakers who collect taxpayer-funded salaries but don’t lift a finger to help their hardworking constituents are the real leeches.” al.com/opinion/2024/0…
It was an honor to join @UAW Local 551 at their Worker’s Memorial Day Ceremony today, honoring those workers injured and lost on the job. As one sister said, we don’t live to work and we certainly don’t work to die. Solidarity ✊
My faculty harasser, who was found guilty of violating department and university policies by IU Title IX, was not banned from IU Bloomington campus. He was only banned from department space/events. Not banned from campus as a whole. And yet this student was banned for 5 years.

It's not just at companies like Starbucks where young workers are turning things around for unions — here's the latest from @UAW's Mercedes drive in Alabama 👇
They are cleaning college students’ blood off the sidewalk this morning and politicians are talking about how it made us all safer. Ok

My life changed when I joined Region 9A. I got better pay, benefits and a say in my workplace. I’m running because everyone deserves that same security and empowerment—in the workplace and in the rest of their lives. It's time to #StandUp for Queens workers! Join us.

📢 Join us for two solidarity actions tomorrow in New York City! @MFJUnion Picket for 60 Days on Strike 📅 Friday, April 26, 1-3 PM 📍 100 William Street Stand Up for Members, Stand Up for Gaza 📅 Friday, April 26, 4 PM 📍 Washington Square Park
Watching that victory unfold before our eyes was incredible! Having Zach there with us put a personal touch on it. Workers want to join a union that takes on the fight for better working conditions. Cooperation with management is a one way street with humiliation at the end.

Imagine how many kids could’ve been saved at Uvalde if cops went in like this. But no this is just for anti-genocide protesters.

When we get the opportunity to speak with high school students about unions it goes without saying we discuss the unions role in civil and human rights. Our job doesn't begin and end on the factory floor.
Sometimes the UAW bump is roadkill
BREAKING: Mercedes-Benz has abruptly replaced its U.S. CEO in an effort to undercut the union drive at Mercedes's plant in Alabama. In a video shown to workers today, new CEO Federico Kochlowski admits that "many of you" want change and promises improvements.
it strikes me as depressingly american that we have managed to make what's happening in Gaza about....ivy league universities
New from Shawn Fain: “We are fully preparing to strike on May Day 2028.” The UAW President is calling on unions everywhere to align their contract expiration dates for mass impact. Here, he explains why. inthesetimes.com/article/may-da…
May Day 2024 - Texas!
Strike for Palestine this May Day! Join an action near you ✊🏾
Alabama politicians want your lives to be worse, and for you to surrender all control to them and their business benefactors. Auto workers in Alabama are standing up with the @UAW saying no. youtu.be/ywN_E3ezq38
Since you had on an apparatchik of the business and political class to disparage Alabamians who will be voting to unionize with the @UAW, presumably this means that an invitation has been sent to the union for next weekend's program @toddcstacy?
Tonight... We're reviewing the week of action in the Legislature w/ just 5 days remaining. Todd's guests: ▶️Secretary of Commerce Ellen McNair on new @MadeinAL strategies & the union push ▶️Danne Howard of @ALhospitals on health care expansion options 7:30 @APTV! #alpolitics

I went to law school to be a reasonable capitalist and cash in on my science background as a patent attorney. Over the course of years of evening classes and the madness of the world at that time, cashing out was not an option. I had to do something to make this country better
Law Twitter: Did you go to law school knowing that you wanted to have the career you got upon graduation? When did you have the "ah ha" moment when you decided you're best suited as a transactional lawyer or a litigator (or tax lawyer, regulatory lawyer, etc.)?
It's time for lawyers, law students, and advocates to get serious about a theory of change that doesn't depend on persuading a few unelected, unaccountable elites that we should have basic rights. That's what #PPP24 is all about. We hope to see you there: peoplesparity.org/event/2024conv…
Was just alerted to the existence of people who think that the strategy for restoring abortion rights is to replace a few justices and then go back through the courts and I cannot overstate how badly I want out of this carnival and off this ride.
When students at Brown occupied College Hall for divestment last semester, Mumia Abu Jamal called them from prison. Brown arrested those students. Today Brown again refused to drop the charges. Anyway here’s a replica of Mumia’s cell on exhibit at Brown’s John Hay library
If I had to sum up the radical pacifist tradition in one sentence it would be: To struggle on behalf of peace, you often have to pick a side.
I have a few ideas
Um wow how am I here?
The UAW is betting on the working class and the rest of the labor movement should join them. It's time to rebuild the working class.
2/ The @UAW spent $152 million in strike benefits for workers in 2023, more than the entire labor movement spent in 2022 ($116 million).
It’s official!

"As working people, we must come together. We can no longer allow corporations, politicians and borders to divide us. It’s time we reclaimed May Day for the working class. That’s what our May Day contract expiration is all about."--@ShawnFainUAW inthesetimes.com/article/may-da…
Read @ShawnFainUAW on the significance of May Day, including the UAW's plan to strike on May Day 2028. ➡️ inthesetimes.com/article/may-da… While May 2028 is still 4 years away, this year join the following May Day rallies sponsored by our locals & community partners across Region 9A. 🧵

Senator, word of advice: Take your message to the candidates, not the communities whose families are being slaughtered. Arab Americans aren’t on the ballot in November - Biden and Trump are. Not going to be lectured by someone who believes Palestinian lives are disposable.
That’s America and democracy—the absolute right to exercise one’s voice. In 2024, it comes with a tremendous responsibility: turn your back on Biden and you embrace Trump. If you play with that fire and deliver Trump a Michigan win, you own that burn.
