Thank you @MNAFLCIO @mnnurses & union members for coming out to kick off GOTV weekend! As AG I will always protect MN families. My opponent? He's endorsed by & is receiving outside $ from some of the same corporations that I've fought for MN families. Not me: I’m on your side.

And great to see friends from @MAPEmn @seiumn @AFSCMEMN5 @MFT59 @MPLSRLF @UNITEHERE17! We’re strongest together. Let’s get our the vote and win!

ALERT: Beware political tactics at the 11th hour by desperate politicians! Jimmy has had almost a year to stand with @IBT_320 and @afscme3800 workers. He has declined to join info pickets, tweet his support or even reached out our unions. Jim Schultz is a opportunist liar!

Just 26 days remaining for Minnesotans to vote! Do you have a vote plan? Do you know which candidates are Labor-endorsed? mnaflcio.org/endorsements #1u #Labor2022 #mnvotes

BREAKING: As University of Minnesota AFSCME members gather, picket signs in hand, University President Joan Gabel and Twin Cities Deans Council flee Walter Library to Coffman Union. What is UMN leadership scared of & why would they avoid people who make campus work?

Yesterday, We rallied w/ allied orgs at Davis Center to support @MFT59 bargaining team. Parents, graduates, labor leaders, grassroots orgs & community members spoke about safe & stable schools MPLS kids deserve. #MFTweGotYourBack #SafeAndStableMPS #MFT4Kids #TheTimeIsNow

Impressive turnout in -22 for an @AFSCMEMN5 info picket at Hennepin County Service Center. Equal pay for equal work and no union busting. These a fair asks and it shouldn’t be this hard. Solidarity from @MFT59! Get it together, Commissioners!

Tell your elected officials you support hourly school workers (bus drivers, paras, food service) who have been on front lines during COVID having access to unemployment insurance like everyone else. This exclusion is wrong & needs to be fixed! TAKE ACTION:seiu.mn/supporthourlyw…
