Jobs to Move America

Micron is receiving $20B+ in public subsidies. Central New York deserves enforceable guarantees in return. This week we launched CNY United for Community Benefits — calling for good jobs, environmental protections & real accountability. centralnyunited.org

New railcars should mean more than new equipment AND they should mean good union jobs. The MTA must adopt and enforce the U.S. Employment Plan with full transparency. Read this op-ed by @IAMBrianBryant @smartunionworks @transportworker @JobsMoveAmerica nydailynews.com/2026/01/16/the…

Central New York United for Community Benefits Coalition tell WIRED that they welcome the project. But the coalition members believe oversight is lacking and that Micron could get away with polluting the environment and worsening the region’s economic inequality.

As we approach MLK Day, we’re reminded that Dr. King fought not just for civil rights, but for economic justice and good jobs. International union presidents are calling on the MTA to do the same. @IAM_Union @smartunionworks @transportworker nydailynews.com/2026/01/16/the…

@ZohranKMamdani .@JulieSuLabor joining New York City Hall is great news for workers and for the companies who respect them for their hard work. Good jobs are essential to a just, equitable and prosperous city and she's spent her career holding companies accountable to their promises.

Welcome to A New Era, Julie Su! As former U.S. Secretary of Labor, Julie played a central role in fighting for workers, ensuring a just day's pay for a hard day's work and saving the pensions of more than a million union workers and retirees. A lover of Queens, she's joining us as NYC's first ever Deputy Mayor for Economic Justice.

Earlier this year, @seiucalifornia & @seiuusww President David Huerta was arrested while peacefully exercising his First Amendment rights at an ICE raid in LA when he was tackled and detained. We stand with David & will fight until every family is safe from fear. #JusticeForDavid

New report from @JobsMoveAmerica sheds light on Hyundai/Kia’s suppliers’ reliance on prison labor, quantifying how coercive labor practices in Hyundai/Kia’s Southern manufacturing supply chain suppress wages for both incarcerated and non-incarcerated workers. jobstomoveamerica.org/resource/the-i…

One day after we released this video @JobsMoveAmerica filed a lawsuit against Hyundai “for engaging in unconscionable labor practices” including child labor, forced prison labor, and coerced migrant labor. They argue that the use of prison labor in Hyundai’s supply chain violates California law.

California’s “high-road” laws prohibit goods produced with the benefit of forced, prison or child labor from being purchased with public funds. #hyundai #kia al.com/business/2025/…

The lawsuit alleges violations of California’s Unfair Competition Law and describes a pattern of abuse and deception that runs contrary to California’s “high-road” labor policies, public purchasing standards, and public values. Read more: jobstomoveamerica.org/wp-content/upl…

#SB787 is an opportunity for CA to continue to lead in enviro policy while delivering good jobs. it’s your turn @GavinNewsom! The bill creates a position in the CEC to take CA’s climate and economic leadership to the next level by focusing on high growth industries.

With uncertainty at the federal level, it’s never been more important for CA to lead the country in innovative policies to decarbonize our economy. Signing #SB787 into law presents an opportunity we can’t miss to grow clean economy industries.
