The Virginia General Assembly has passed bold #UnionsForAll legislation to ensure: ✅ Collective Bargaining Rights! ✅ Worker Retention Protections! ✅ Paid Family & Medical Leave! ✅ $15 Minimum Wage! ✅ Safety & Security for All Virginians!
@oconnor_reports Has anyone offered an explanation to the second? Why are there exemptions?
Lt. Col. Brandon Shah was a lifelong Virginian who lived in Chesapeake where I represent with @NewCraigforVA. He was a beloved ROTC leader at ODU in a program he was once enrolled in as a young man. He will be missed terribly by our community and our hearts are broken tonight.
"My job at UVA is not undignified because I'm digging through used tissues, pouring out half-full cans of Busch Light, and scraping maggots out of TV dinner boxes. My job is undignified because we are providing a clean learning and working environment on POVERTY WAGES!" @UVA
Happening now outside of the Virginia Capitol, union workers and supporters are holding a rally for collective bargaining rights, specifically campus and healthcare workers.
Hom Care workers from @SEIUVA512 continue to meet with legislators every day to talk about passing Collective Bargaining rights for ALL hard-working Virginians, including care workers and campus workers. #UnionsForAll
