Don’t let the name fool you—there’s nothing beautiful about a bill that guts Medicaid, slashes public services, and hands tax breaks to billionaires. The “Big Beautiful Bill” is a direct attack on the working class.

Workers Memorial Day is a day to remember those who have died on the job & to reflect on workplace safety. Trump’s cuts will make jobs less safe -- by gutting the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), workers will lose safety protections & more workers will get hurt.

This is what we’re up against: the rich trying to buy public policy. Whether it's Elon offering $1 million to voters in Wisconsin or landlords paying folks to fake grassroots support in Concord, the wealthy are no longer pretending to play fair.

Stripping collective bargaining and union rights from workers across the federal government is the very definition of union busting — and a blatant attempt to silence us. We will fight this outrageous attack on our members with every fiber of our collective being.

Across the board, more union members voted for Democratic candidates than the general public. As Democrats decide on their new leadership and next steps, they must re-center working people. Working people must be at the table. And we've got a plan.

If Democrats Want to Reconnect With the Working Class, They Need to Start Listening to Unions
The Democrats blew it with non-union workers in the 2024 election. Unions have a plan to get the party on message.
