We’ve released our 35th annual report “Death on the Job: The Toll of Neglect.” 5,070 workers died on the job in 2024. Every worker should be able to go home safe and healthy after their shift, but the Trump admin is putting workers at greater risk. aflcio.org/press/releases…

“The pursuit of greater profits cannot justify choices that systematically sacrifice jobs.” In his first encyclical, @Pontifex made it clear: we need strong guardrails to protect jobs from AI, and emphasized the importance of unions in defending workers. apnews.com/article/pope-a…

The ruling that affirms the right to strike under international law is a huge win for working people across the globe and in every industry. The right to withhold our labor is one of our strongest tools to fight back against #GreedyCEOs—and must be a fundamental human right. seiu.co/4f2CqQu

Corporations will spend billions on union-busting attorneys and union-avoidance specialists to silence workers, but at the same time say there’s no money for better working conditions. Workers deserve better. Unions are how we take back our power and win. epi.org/publication/u-…

The meeting lasted three minutes. The disrespect will last much longer. Players deserve so much more from ownership.

A new @EconomicPolicy report found that US companies are spending more than $1.5 billion a year on union-busting consultants and lawyers. They’ll spend unlimited money crushing workers’ voices and then claim there’s no money for better conditions. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/m…

The ATU applauds this historic ruling from the United Nation’s International Court of Justice that the right to strike is a fundamental human right protected under international law. Our Union knows well the power of a strike to fight for the rights of our members.  #OurVoiceOurPower  reuters.com/business/world…

There is no right to organize and bargain collectively without the right to strike. As workers face sustained attacks, this opinion from the International Court of Justice reaffirms that the freedom to withhold one's labor is a fundamental human right. apnews.com/article/world-…

A union contract means fair wages. It means dignity and respect on the job, better benefits, fairness and more. Our @UNITEHERE union sister Christy is right: the union difference is real!

So bosses in America spend $1.5 BILLION every year on - *checks notes* - “labor union avoidance.” Instead of ridiculously expensive union-busting consultants and lawyers, wouldn’t it be better to invest that money in the workers who create profit? theguardian.com/us-news/2026/m…
