Every worker deserves a union. Great meeting with the @Labor_Caucus, AFA President @flyingwithsara and Delta workers to learn more about their ongoing unionization efforts. As a proud union member, I will always stand #UnionStrong!

As thousands of @UAW members #StandUp and strike for their families, here is a recent, to-the-point explainer on what means to be a “scab” and a traitor to your class by @IndigoOlivier

Great thread thinking through the #StandUpStrike tactic. I'm here for it!
Dave Kamper 🌹@dskamper
Interesting and promising strategy here from @UAW. A few thoughts on what #StandUpUAW might be and why they're doing it. The sit-down strike tactics that worked in Flint in 1936-37 are now illegal (when workers come up with good ways to fight, they get made illegal). 1/

WORKING UNDER AN EXPIRED CONTRACT: Know Your Rights! When the contract expires, you're still protected. Get informed and get organized. #StandUpUAW

The one thing I'll say at this moment: #ALeagueOfTheirOwn is not a small or niche show. The audience is domestic, but our understanding is that it's very big. It has outperformed many other shows that have been renewed. Journalists, please stop reinforcing the narrative ...

So very proud to follow the leadership of these Delta flight attendants. 🥹
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS
NEW: Delta is the last major airline without a flight attendants union—but not for long. Delta flight attendants have launched a massive union drive that would organize 22K workers with @AFA_CWA. They narrowly lost a union election in 2010 but say this time the tide has turned.

It's not what will the union do for us. It's what will we do through our union.

Workers are fighting battles we won decades ago: workplace safety, an 8-hour day, a living wage, healthcare & retirement security. @POTUS can appoint judges who have been in the trenches w/ workers & break the cycle of courts undermining our rights nytimes.com/2021/11/11/opi…

Good thread updating Starbucks Union development in Buffalo. Schultz really told a Holocaust story to tell workers to appreciate what they have?? Stop.

NEWS: Two days before ballots are scheduled to go out in a high-stakes union election at Buffalo-area Starbucks, the company asks the NLRB to stay the election. nytimes.com/2021/11/08/bus…

Great thread demo-ing how transparent, democratic contract negotiation and ratification can work 💪

Ratification meetings underway for Mercy Hospital #strikeCHS Big cheers for the landmark nurse-patient ratios achieved in this contract!! Big exercise in democracy: the bargaining cmte explains the details of the contract to 250 members/mtg, all day today, tmrw -who then vote

This! Preach!
NewsGuild of New York@nyguild
📢 When @nytimes management cancelled bargaining yesterday, it sparked an important conversation around open bargaining, a strategy we're committed to. Every member has the right to observe the negotiations over their contract. After all, it's the members who have to ratify it!

A hugely important election for Labor. Many Unions currently facing decisions of democracy, how they will organize, how they will build power.
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS
NEW: The fight to unionize Amazon and win a fair contract for UPS workers hinges on this election you probably haven’t heard of. The @Teamsters will elect new leadership for the first time in over two decades. The winner could determine the future of worker power in America.

Wow they really went there
NYTimes Communications@NYTimesPR
@nyguild @NYTimesGuild @nytimes We are trying to reach agreement on important issues affecting people's lives. This is not how successful negotiating works. A group of 250 observers (20% of the union membership) stifles productive conversation. We want a negotiation, not a spectacle.

Always hyped to see the spread of open bargaining! here's hoping more of the labor movement can use it to increase democracy and improve agreements.
Legal Services Staff Assn@LSSA2320
In this round of contract negotiations, our union team introduced two new innovations – union member working groups and open bargaining – that allowed all members to observe the bargaining process and to participate directly in the creation and decision-making around demands.

We are creating a strike support fund to cover the cost of purchasing food and supplies for our 10,000 UAW siblings on strike at John Deere. We'll be making trips to the picket line this week as well. Please contribute here and share widely!
