Kaiser refuses to give workers fair pay, benefits, and the staffing they need to keep patients safe. We stand with the 46,000 UNAC/UHCP, @steelworkers.bsky.social Local 7600, @ofnhp.bsky.social, @unitehere.org Hawaii, and HNHP health care workers on STRIKE fighting for a fair contract ✊

Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Father Larry attempts to walk toward the detention center. ISP prevent people from moving forward. Lieutenant Col Bradley says he's making a call and dialing the ICE facility, but also says people may be waiting a while.

Is it good when federal judges have to schedule Sunday night 10 pm hearings about absurd military invasions of their state.

ALWAYS consult your doctor before making any decisions about your reproductive health care, and look out for your peers by calling out disinformation online.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Protesters were tear gassed, shot with pepper spray bullets and some detained by ICE officers outside of a facility in suburban Broadview Friday morning. blockclubchi.co/3VslkAr

Please support the striking pittsburgh post-gazette workers who have spent almost 3 years out on strike, bravely standing up workplace democracy in the face of flagrant union busting. Don’t read the scab paper and donate to the strike fund!

We’d be in a much stronger position right now if mainstream Democrats had taken a common sense stand for First Amendment principles instead of piling on undergraduate standing up for Palestine.

Shameful and completely at odds with Catholic values

I wrote this story because the case of the Guatemalan children hasn’t received nearly as much media attention as it deserves. I wanted to highlight the full extent of the government’s depraved conduct. I hope you’ll read and share. Don’t look away. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

if you wind back the clock a year and say “trump will be president, he’ll tear up entire agencies without any legislative authority, ignore court orders, build a concentration camp, and send troops into multiple US cities” you wouldn’t ask “well how many troops?” before deciding what this describes

Congratulations to Magee nurses on winning their union election! Now it’s time for UPMC to recognize their contract and negotiate in good faith—for the good of the nurses, patients, and Western PA. Any attempts to delay or deny their voice are unacceptable.

D.C. has more residents than two U.S. states. They pay more per capita in federal taxes than any other state. But they don’t get a serious seat at the table to decide how they’re governed. D.C. statehood now.

“But we have bigger fish to fry” You don’t actually? This is the fight? Whether to become white supremacist or not White supremacy is why we are all in this situation

A few thoughts on the 5th Cir. decision enjoining the NLRB from proceeding with ULP charges against SpaceX & 2 other employers. (Opinion linked from this story: news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-...)

Republicans are DEFUNDING mass transit in the fifth largest state in the country. Thanks for nothing PA Republicans 😒

My team and I are aware of the tragic explosion at the U.S. Steel Clairton. My heart is with the workers, especially those injured or trapped, their families, first responders, and the entire Clairton community. Please follow local guidance and avoid the area as we gather more information.

Four Al Jazeera staff, including reporter Anas Al Sharif, were killed in an Israeli attack on a tent for journalists outside the main gate of Gaza's al-Shifa hospital aje.io/onll19

Running out of ways to describe how bad things are getting. The Trump administration is now going after immigration lawyers who have tried to stop the government from deporting their clients. www.politico.com/news/2025/08...

Disability isn’t outside the labor struggle, it’s central to it. Capitalism creates debility by designing work that breaks us down and then discards us. Disability is not just a medical category. It’s the byproduct of violence, extraction, and neglect.

Opinion: Contraception Gives Young Women Control of Their Bodies—So Why Are So Many Girls Afraid to Use it?

Just tried calling @fetterman.senate.gov to express my extreme disapproval over this statement. Got a message that it’s outside of business hours & then the line cut. They don’t even answer the phone during biz hours, always get voicemail when I call. Just shameful. Resign now.

really gets me how the Roberts court keeps citing geduldig

Starbucks Workers United members proudly join our fellow workers in demanding David's immediate release & an end to the ICE raids. #FreeDavidStopRaids @seiu.org @fightforaunion.bsky.social

An injury to one is an injury to all. Release our union brother David Huerta NOW! #FreeDavidEndRaids

It’s so plainly and obviously righteous to resist mass deportations with force that I think the people who want to convince us to be more afraid of the protestors than of ICE must imagine their audiences to be very stupid.

An Attack on One Is an Attack on All. Stand Up. Speak Out. Defend Workers. Protect Immigrants. Fight for Our Freedoms. 📍 Find an action near you and show up to demand:
 ✊The release of David Huerta
 🛑 An immediate end to ICE raids
 📣 The right to protest without fear 🔗 bit.ly/FreeDavidEndRaids

The nearly 15 million working people of the AFL-CIO and our affiliated unions demand the immediate release of @californialabor.bsky.social Vice President and @seiuca.bsky.social and SEIU-USWW President David Huerta. aflcio.org/press/releas...

What happened to David Huerta is outrageous and unacceptable. We stand unequivocally with him, @SEIU, and the movement demanding an end to ICE’s despicable conduct. We call for his immediate release and a stop to these raids.

🚨 Armed agents in tactical gear. Flash-bang grenades. So-called 'less-lethal' weapons". All used on peaceful protesters in LA demanding dignity for immigrants. This is what a police state looks like. This is what happens when cruelty becomes policy. We must speak out.

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

As of midnight Wednesday, District 9 challenger Allie Petonic, who has stood firmly against Pittsburgh Public Schools’ closure proposals, sat one vote above incumbent school board president Gene Walker with all but one precinct reporting.
