🛤️ @mikiesherrill.bsky.social is the leader we need as NJ Governor. She led the fight to get the #GatewayTunnel funded & she'll lead the fight to ensure it stays funded. Jack Ciattarelli won't fight for our #jobs, won't disagree w/Washington and, on #Gateway, he just said work hasn't stopped yet.

📢 @weareliuna.bsky.social Local 3 filled the streets of Jersey City, demanding an end to #workerexploitation. Laborers are Rising against developers like Namdar Group & #ConcreteRising. Workers can't afford to wait a year to be paid. Demand workers be paid: actionnetwork.org/petitions/de...

🎥 Watch @weareliuna.bsky.social VP @uniontillidie.bsky.social on the Fed. Gov't #Lockout #Shutdown: "It's not an America First agenda. It's disgusting. It's anti-American, and it has to stop. "The only way we fight lockouts are through solidarity, standing shoulder to shoulder with one another..."

#WATCH: @weareliuna.bsky.social General President Brent Booker break down the Fed. Gov't #shutdown: "In just 24 hrs, the Gateway Tunnel funding is in jeopardy & the DOE clawed back $8B from projects in 16 states. "This shutdown is nothing more than a lockout."

🗣️ Demand Concrete Rising & GP Concrete pay #constructionworkers what they're owed! GP workers in Jersey City have been waiting OVER A YEAR to be paid for #work they've already done! Add your voice: https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/demand-fair-compensation-for-jersey-city-construction-workers/

Give #JCBrigade members Cary, Laura, Tyler, Andrew & Merle 30 minutes and a camera, and they'll show you #LaborersRising through Brigade membership! Their energy & passion for @weareliuna.bsky.social is contagious, so come to the next Brigade mtg. & get involved!

🎥Through the lens of our members, you see the heart of @weareliuna.bsky.social At the Tradeswoman Build Nations Conference Natasha showed us what solidarity, pride & opportunity look like—and shared it at our Sept JCBrigade union-fluencer training.👷‍♀️

🧑‍🧑‍🧒For this family @weareliuna.bsky.social is more than a job — it's a future, a community, and a bond that connects them to other Laborers across the region. These members are proof that when you're part of LIUNA, you're building more than projects — you're building a legacy.

👷‍♀️ Representation matters. As part of our #JCBrigade union-fluencer Training, Keilyn captured the energy of her time at the Tradeswoman Build Nations Conference, reminding us of the importance of #women in the trades — and the pride our @weareliuna.bsky.social sisters carry every day.

😬 If Jack Ciattarelli is willing to doxx a #veteran (who's a sitting US Congresswoman) & her family to try and score political points, what do you think he'd be willing to do the rest of us? The lack of judgement here is #despicable, dangerous & disqualifying.

🤬 @weareliuna.bsky.social Local 172 #apprentice & US Army #veteran Sherron Murphy shares his outrage at @mikiesherrill.bsky.social's full military record being doxxed by the Ciattarelli campaign: "I'd be livid if someone gained access to my unredacted Army records & released them to the public."

🤬 #WATCH: @weareliuna.bsky.social VP @uniontillidie.bsky.social, a Navy #veteran, on @mikiesherrill.bsky.social's full, 100% unredacted service record being given to the Ciattarelli campaign: "Every veteran in the country should be alarmed that this gov't would just release our info to anybody."
