Today is a sad day for America, for those of us who believe in justice, and for those of us who believe that America’s diversity is the bedrock for a thriving democracy.

Imagine going to work each day not knowing how much you’ll get paid. If you’re an Uber driver, you face that grim scenario every day. Our new report based on a survey of 2,500 drivers paints a bleak picture of what it's like to work at the whim of AI. www.powerswitchaction.org/resources/ub...

Whose streets? OUR streets. 🚫👑 #NoKings #MOworkers #StandUpKC

#NoKings #NoICE #NoBillionaires #ImmigrantsAreWelcome vibes in Sacramento

Illinois follows the law — we expect the federal government to follow the law, too. We won't participate in abuses of power. We won't violate court orders. We won't ignore the Constitution. We won't defy the Supreme Court. We won't take away people’s right to peacefully protest.

LA is home to nearly a million undocumented immigrants. If you live here, you know someone living that reality whether you know it or not. It’s part of what makes this city what it is—and no, we’re not living in fear because of them.

In LA, SF, Seattle, and across the country, we’re joining the thousands of people showing the Trump regime: - we see these ICE abductions for the violence they are - we will keep our communities whole - we will not be intimidated into submission #FreeDavidHuerta #FreeDavidEndRaids #FreeThemAll

We condemn the abductions and violence carried out by ICE yesterday in the Los Angeles area, and join in solidarity with the community leaders and groups who showed out to protest and defend our immigrant siblings.

BREAKING: Los Angeles protests erupt over ongoing ICE raids. NBC News' @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social reports on the ground on @allinwithchris.bsky.social.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

When ICE comes into our neighborhoods targeting our communities and hurting our leaders, we show up! United. Organized. Ready to protect families.

This is outrageous. ICE just arrested Mayor Ras Baraka of Newark, NJ outside a private prison corporation’s $1 billion detention facility that the City says is violating local laws. The Mayor was with Congress members investigating the facility. www.nbcnewyork.com/new-jersey/n...

⚡️BIG NEWS: Green Social Housing just passed in Chicago! This is a *huge* win that residents and organizers with IL Green New Deal and @grassrootschi.bsky.social have been working towards for years: housing that's permanently affordable, environmentally sustainable, mixed-income AND tenant governed!

🚨 Today, as Uber execs celebrate profits, drivers and advocates from across the US and around the world are joining together to release this statement criticizing the corporation for its inaction in the wake of the deportation of UberEats driver Ricardo Prada Vásquez:

Uber relies on a majority immigrant workforce to make its billions – drivers like Ricardo Prada who was detained and deported to El Salvador by the Trump administration without due process. It’s time for Uber to speak out against this injustice and protect drivers from abduction and deportation.

While the Trump regime scapegoats immigrants, Amazon is partnering with ICE and profiting from technology to terrorize and abduct people. We want safety, not surveillance! That’s why I’m on the streets today #MayDay2025 #HeretoStay #HomeisHere maydaystrong.org

‼️✊ ALL OUT FOR MAY DAY ✊‼️ Tomorrow we're taking to the streets to support workers’ rights, to protest the policies of the Trump-Musk authoritarian regime, and to join in solidarity with our immigrant and trans communities. #MayDay2025 Find an action near you 👉 maydaystrong.org

💪 Workers power Amazon! This #MayDay, we’re fighting back against Bezos, Trump and his billionaire buddies who put profits over people. We stand with Amazon workers demanding dignified wages and safety! Join @powerswitchaction.org at an action near you maydaystrong.org

NEW: At least 10 states lose more than $100 million per year in tax revenue to data centers. The loss of revenue is surely worse than we can yet document — of the 32 states with data center tax incentives, 12 fail to disclose even *aggregate* revenue losses. 👇🏾 goodjobsfirst.org/cloudy-with-...

New @ips-dc.org report w/@powerswitchaction.org & @athenaforall.bsky.social on Amazon execs' windfalls from rigged tax code: $6.2B: Bezos savings from discounted cap gains rate $86B: Bezos heirs' gains if estate tax eliminated 72%: Amazon workers with $0 in 401k inequality.org/article/tax-...

NEW: Jeff Bezos has saved $6.2 BILLION from the discounted capital gains tax rate since the 2017 tax reform. As Congress pushes MORE corporate tax giveaways, the IPS @inequality.org team, @powerswitchaction.org, and @athenaforall.bsky.social expose how Amazon execs have been raking it in. REPORT:

"To stop autocracy, we need to challenge the corporations and billionaires enabling and benefitting from oligarchy, not give them more tax breaks," says our ED @laurenrants.bsky.social New research produced w/ @ips-dc.org & @athenaforall.bsky.social 👇 www.powerswitchaction.org/resources/am...

"Local control, a true redistribution of wealth, and a model for other cities to follow..." This is what green social housing could look like in Chicago 👇 www.chicagobusiness.com/opinion/gree... @grassrootschi.bsky.social

Amazon may not have the best customer service or the lowest prices, but it’s really good at avoiding taxes by funneling profits into overseas tax havens like Luxembourg – something mom-and-pop stores can’t afford to do.

TOMORROW - APRIL 8: Our Homes Are Not Your Tax Cuts! Join us @aforhj.org @pplsactioninst.bsky.social @popdemoc.bsky.social and Right to the City for a teach-in about HUD's significance, new proposed housing cuts, and what we can do about it. Tune in at 7:30pm ET ➡️ www.mobilize.us/peoplesactio...

📢💥 Happening tomorrow in cities across the US 💥 📢 We'll be out there in solidarity and support of federal workers! ✊ #SaveOurServices

The Senate report on Amazon's safety practices reads like a horror movie.

Shareholders & corporations can actually fight authoritarianism & can actually ensure that workers benefit & thrive from the profits they create . #ThankYouCostco #abetterwayispossible #resist

What protest songs should we all be knowing, internalizing, going deep into our bones and souls with it as an actual practice to keep us whole, and building community with? Imagine bird dogging folks and people just belting out songs..let’s get creative folks and become irresistible #resist

We are in scary times with immigration sweeps, executive orders & farmworkers laboring in thick wildfire smoke. We're scrambling to do everything at once & our resources are stretched thin.

⚠️SAVE THIS THREAD ⚠️ Today, ICE is ramping up mass raids across the country. We know it’s scary, but that’s Trump’s ultimate goal: to scare us and cause chaos. We knew this was coming, and we’re ready for it. Here’s what you can do if you’re approached by an immigration agent ⬇️🧵
