It’s not just a woman’s right to control her own body that is on the line in the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, it's a worker’s right to join a union and collectively bargain. Don't let Elon Musk buy this election. Vote Susan Crawford on April 1.

The right to strike is on trial today at the U.S. Supreme Court. For nearly a century, federal law has protected workers’ right to strike in order to improve their wages, hours and working conditions.

This whole railroad workers episode further clarifies that the "essential worker" discourse we've been bombarded with for almost 3 yrs is about disciplining workers to labor in perilous conditions, and not about respecting and protecting the people who do vital work.

At @NEAToday to highlight the choice voters have between building an economy that works for working families, and the Republican plan to make health care more expensive, ban abortion nationwide, and put Medicare and Social Security on the chopping block. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

You might know that we're heading towards a possible rail strike. What most of the media might not tell you is why. Railroad workers have been working for 3 years without a contract, and now railroad companies are holding the economy hostage to deny them a single sick day. 🧵

This #LaborDay, don’t forget about the hundreds of thousands of incarcerated workers who don’t have the option to take a day off or join a union (more on that in Chapter 13 of my book). Follow and support the @IWW_IWOC and abolitionist orgs like @JailLawSpeak @FREEALAMOVEMENT
