Folks! Just 3 more days until the end of petition season! You only need 10 valid signatures to get on the ballot to run for committee person. When we organize on the neighborhood level we can uplift the power of people's movements city wide. wardsthatwork.com

Such an amazing time this past week at the @PhillyAFLCIO annual conference in Atlantic City! As we navigate an authoritarian Fed Gvrnmnt, unions offer a key role in the pro-democracy movement. We must strengthen bonds between our union siblings who fight for working people 💪🏼❤️‍🔥

Great time on the “Wards That Work” panel this weekend with leaders from across Philly. Building power for working people starts with becoming a committee person in your division and ward! Learn more via coalition partners: @PhillyDSA @reclaimphila @riverwardsdems @phillycpusa

Another amazing Mid-Autumn Festival celebration in Chinatown yesterday with @AsAmUnited surrounded by community taking part in this beautiful tradition! Extremely grateful to have been invited to MC the moon cake eating contest 💟🥮🥳

Congrats to @apipennsylvania on 5 tremendous years of supporting and protecting the API community here in Philadelphia and across Pennsylvania! Here’s to the next 5 and beyond 💪🏼❤️‍🔥

Yesterday’s Labor Day celebration with the @afscmedc47 family and Unions from across Philadelphia was a powerful display - *PHILLY IS A UNION TOWN!* 💪🏼❤️‍🔥

Proud to join and support the members of AFSCME Local 1723 yesterday at Temple University! If you are administrative, professional or technical staff at Temple and aren’t yet a union member, join ASAP! 💪🏼❤️‍🔥

PMA contract ratified! Last night, members of our chapter at the Philadelphia Museum of Art voted 99% to ratify a new 3-year union contract! The founding chapter of our local, PMA Union has been fighting for many of the wins in this contract since first unionizing in 2020!

With an operating budget in the BILLIONS it’s appalling how little @UofPenn thinks the incredible workers of PENN Museum Workers United deserve. Management needs to deliver a fair contract *NOW* 💪🏼❤️‍🔥 📸 @the_devouring_tree (give a follow!)

Humbled to join @NikilSaval , @RepKrajewski + @AmandaforPhilly at today’s *Zomentum* panel w/ @PhillyDSA ! We *CAN* win big and build long lasting power for working people across Philadephia and @ZohranKMamdani ‘s historic win can help us chart the path forward💪🏼❤️‍🔥 📸 @DGromko

Hot Labor Summer **CONTINUES** 🔥🔥 We had an amazing time at today’s PENN Museum Worker’s United informational picket. @UofPenn management ought to return to the table with serious proposals ASAP. Just getting this engine started… 💪🏼❤️‍🔥

It’s shaping up to be a red-hot summer! 😏 Join us for a hybrid panel discussion on the historic campaign of @nycDSA mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani—what his historic win means for the left, and what it means for us here in Philadelphia.

Wonderful to reconnect with #savechinatown coalition members and join neighbors and electeds at tonight’s “A People’s Vision for Market East” at @PhilaArchCenter . Learn more about this important project at: noarenaphl.org/peoplesvision

Such a great time today with the #ruecrew supporting neighbors in North Philly with @RTPhiladelphia . @RTPhiladelphia are doing powerful and transformative work to repair homes for working families across the city. Learn more and get involved at: rebuildingphilly.org

Great time with @evankassof and @kauffman_a yesterday talking with workers at @UofPenn about organizing 🤙🏼❤️‍🔥💪🏼

Deep congrats to my friend @meag_jae on two incredible years leading @PhillyDSA as co-chair. As a fellow member of the LPC I saw Meag always lead with care and a clear vision for charting a path forward. They are a genuine leader and I’m grateful to call them a friend ✊🏼❤️

Thrilled for Independence Seaport Museum Workers United and their huge ELECTION WIN yesterday with 91% voting *UNION YES*! It’s been an honor to work with this group and can’t wait to continue to support them as they build toward the contract they deserve! 📸 @PHLafscmeDC47

We’re stickered up at Philly’s Independence Seaport Museum and ready to win our union! Our vote is this Wednesday and Rowan, a Shipboard Educator, is wearing her #UnionYes sticker 😎 excited to join @phillycwu @cwuafscme @PHLafscmeDC47

Yesterday’s @phillyaflcio Workers Over Billionaires rally was an incredible moment of solidarity in support of working people. Thousands were in attendance and 70 of us were arrested for participating in a sit-in. We will continue to show up ✊🏼❤️‍🔥 📸 @pastpostal65 , @an_piobar

Fired up for the crew from Independence Seaport Museum Workers United! Their Union Election is next Wednesday, May 7th from 12pm-2pm. If you’re down around the Penn’s Landing/ISM area show the workers some love! 💪🏼💪🏼❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥
