Welcome the newest members of UAW Region 4, @NOLSW2320— the National Immigration Justice Center Union in Chicago! These workers won their NLRB election with 87% voting in favor of joining the UAW!

Congratulations to our UAW family at General Motors on a record $14,500 in profit-sharing for your incredible work in 2024!

"No work is insignificant. All labor that uplifts humanity has dignity and importance and should be undertaken with painstaking excellence." — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

As concerns about possible encounters with ICE grow, be prepared by knowing your rights.

2025 is the year to pass this @uaw priority. Student debt shouldn't drive legal services attorneys out of jobs they love. cityandstateny.com/policy/2025/01…

No matter what the corporate elite tell you, let me make something clear: Universal health care is not radical. A living wage is not radical. Dignity in the workplace is not radical. Higher education without debt is not radical. Affordable housing is not radical.

Black men deserve to grow old.

55,000 postal workers represented by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers are entering their 4th week on strike. They are demanding fair wages, safe working conditions, the right to retire with dignity, and the expansion of services at the public post office. 📸 : @cupw

Nobody deserves to live in poverty —especially those whose labor makes society function.

.@Marriott’s Palace Hotel - where hundreds of workers are on strike - is part of the “Let’s Glow SF” light show... so we decided to add our own message! 😉

@UAWD_Reform As a UAWD member, I’m hurt and disrespected that UAWD SC did not have UAWD members vote on releasing this statement . This is NOT what democracy looks like

The fight for reform is not waged in staff union negotiations but in empowering the rank and file on shop floors around the nation.

Due to a dispute between our elected leaders, many of whom we endorsed, and a staff union, we are postponing our NYC fundraiser until a time when we can focus on the accomplishments and future of the reform movement.

“Compassion is an action word with no boundaries. It is never wasted.” - Prince

PLAYING GAMES: In the great tradition of strike publications, we offer our tech-worker version. guild-build.netlify.app Now you can play and not be a scab. We also want to thank the multitude of @nytimes subscribers who have stopped playing and honored our digital picket line.
