Minnesota knows the true meaning of solidarity and standing together. America’s unions are excited to be in Minneapolis for our 30th Constitutional Convention. We’re coming together, organizing, and fighting for a better future for ALL working people.

Pretty remarkable that, weeks from the first U.S.-hosted men's World Cup since 1994, there is one American player featured in Adidas' star-studded, 3-minute ad: Trinity Rodman. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJJY...

Nothing to see here, just nonprofit organizations playing amateur sports. www.nytimes.com/athletic/724...

The House of Labor showed up in solidarity to support our NWSLPA union sisters at the Washington Spirit and KC Current game tonight. Women’s soccer is #BetterInAUnion!

The NWSL is considering a shift to a fall-to-spring calendar, but @briannapinto.bsky.social (and many other current players) is NOT a fan 🗣️

This is a SQUAD. ✊

So, I need you to watch Oakland Roots goalkeeper Raphael Spiegel (blue) here. He's up for a late free kick, but when it goes awry he heads behind the goal and get a second ball to punt onto the field. Eventually, after Tommy McCabe's goal line clearance, he gets sent off. #USL-C

Congratulations to the WNBPA players on UNANIMOUSLY ratifying their new contract! The solidarity and strength the players showed sent a clear message: when working people come together, we have the power to fight for what we deserve ✊

The NWSL Players Association proudly congratulates the WNBPA on securing a transformative new Collective Bargaining Agreement. Read our full statement:

Can we talk about the @nwslplayers.bsky.social goalkeeping this weekend? 🔥 🙅🏼‍♀️ 🚫

Louisville and Lexington players paused the USL Championship season opener for 60 seconds after kickoff, letting the clock run without play. A fearless show of unity from the USL Players Association as negotiations reach a critical stage. It’s time for the league to act. #StandUpForStandards

I went to WNBPA HQ to interview executive director Terri Carmichael Jackson about the split amongst members. “The one thing I said to [the players] is they have one tool and their tool is to out wait you." More from that conversation & the state of the union: frontofficesports.com/wnba-union-d...

✊ www.sportsbusinessjournal.com/Articles/202...

The USL players deserve professional standards for their professional talent, and it’s time for the USL to deliver. The players are ready to strike and fight for what they deserve. USL: do the right thing and bargain for a fair contract now.

They said “unions couldn’t win in the South.” Volkswagen workers in Chattanooga said, watch this. A first-ever union contract. 20% raises. Better healthcare. Real protections. That’s worker power. ✊🏿 newrepublic.com/article/2062...

This #BHM, we’re honoring pioneers who opened doors - and those who keep them open. From Dr. Gladys West and Jo Ann Allen Boyce to Crystal Dunn and Christen Press, their excellence and advocacy remind us that progress is built by those who demand more and make space for the next generation.

Starbucks baristas are fighting for a fair contract and we’re standing with them. If Starbucks won’t respect workers at the bargaining table, they don’t deserve our clicks or orders. Our call to action is simple: 📱Delete the Starbucks app seiu.co/deleteApp

The WNBPA players are fighting for fair pay and a real share of the profits THEY create. The players’ talent, hard work and sacrifice built the league. It’s time for Commissioners Cathy Engelbert and Adam Silver to pay the players what they owe them.

America’s unions stand in solidarity with our @mnaflcio.org union family as they stand up to the federal government’s militarized immigration enforcement, fight for truth and freedom, and demand ICE peacefully leave Minnesota. Our solidarity is our strength. When we fight, we win.

Working people see what ICE is doing in Minneapolis and still show up for each other. We’ve been counted out, stepped over, and still we rise. March 28, we gather in Minneapolis and across the country to protect our people and demand what we need. #NoKings

Some of your fave high impact players might not officially be High Impact Players… and how that's part of the problem 📈 Sam sat down with the @nwslplayers.bsky.social's Tori Huster to discuss concerns around the High Impact Rule and its criteria.

Our hearts are with our union brother Alex Jeffrey Pretti’s loved ones. America’s unions demand that ICE leave Minnesota before anyone else is hurt and that local authorities conduct a full, transparent investigation that will lead to accountability.

Deputy Executive Director Tori Huster joined the USLPA, MLSPA, and the USWNTPA at the Independent Supporters Council Convention in Denver, CO, for an important discussion on what it takes to build a player-led league.
 Thank you to the ISC for bringing Players Associations and supporters together.

America’s unions mourn the senseless killing by federal agents of our AFGE Local 3669 union brother and VA nurse Alex Jeffrey Pretti. We reiterate our call for ICE to immediately leave Minnesota before anyone else is hurt or killed. https://bit.ly/4pVTpFO

On MLK Day, we return to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s enduring question: “What are you doing for others?” A reminder that care, solidarity, and shared responsibility are how lasting change is built  - together.

Yesterday, Meghann Burke was in Washington, D.C., at the Congressional College Athletics Summit, where she joined a panel discussion on strengthening women’s and Olympic sports
 Thank you @demwomencaucus.bsky.social for your leadership defending Title IX protections for women collegiate athletes

In 1965, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said “The labor movement was the principal force that transforme­d misery and despair into hope and progress.” Today, America’s unions are fired up and ready to fight so working people can achieve better. #MLK2026

Beginning today, nurses across NYC are on strike for safe staffing and dignity. While CEO’s pocket millions, nurses carry a staffing crisis they didn’t create. We stand with @nynurses.bsky.social #PatientOverProfits

If you're taking to the streets to protest, know your rights.

The nearly 15 million workers of the AFL-CIO—including 7 million working women across the country—stand in solidarity with our WNBPA family in demanding @wnba.com Commissioner Engelbert and @nba.com Commissioner Silver pay WNBA players what they’re owed. aflcio.org/press/releas...

Time is running out for the @wnba.com to pay the players what they owe them. Their contract expires TONIGHT. Without the players, there is no WNBA — and fair pay is LONG overdue. America’s unions stand in solidarity with the WNBPA players in this fight ✊

It’s unacceptable that a corporation can pay their CEO 6,666x what the average worker is paid, while those same workers need food assistance to make ends meet. Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas deserve better. We stand with them in their fight for a fair contract.

“The league has a choice to make,” Burke told me. “They either need to cater to and protect teams unwilling to grow, or unlock potential. They can’t do both.” www.newyorker.com/sports/sport...

A big moment for professional hockey! The Professional Hockey Players’ Association ratified a new agreement with the @echl.bsky.social, strengthening protections and respect on the job. When players organize, they raise the standard for the whole sport. Congratulations to the PHPA!

America’s unions wish you and your loved ones a bright and meaningful Kwanzaa.

WNBA players are responsible for the league’s skyrocketing growth and popularity. Pay equity is LONG overdue for the players. Solidarity with the WNBPA in their fight for a new contract. America’s unions stand with the players! https://bit.ly/3MPWYzB

The entire labor movement is heartbroken by the senseless attack on @cwaunion.bsky.social Local 2222 lineman and Air Force Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe and Army Spec. Sarah Beckstrom just blocks away from the AFL-CIO House of Labor. Our thoughts are with their families.

David Huerta is back in court TOMORROW because this administration thinks attacking one labor leader will silence millions. They’re wrong. We don’t bend, we don’t bow, and we stand with David today and always. Justice for David. ✊🏿

✊

Kat Williams was a bright light in this world, and in our small town. The world should know her name, and her voice. lovingmemorials.site/kat-williams/

@apwu.bsky.social President Mark Dimondstein is a champion for all workers. He has always stood with America’s unions and secured countless wins for postal workers. We thank him for his service to our labor movement and look forward to working with President Jonathan Smith!

NWSLPA Issues Statement Condemning Attacks on Players:

WNBPA players are fighting for a new contract so they get an equitable share of the profits THEY create. Pay them what you owe them, @wnba.com Commissioner Cathy Engelbert and @nba.com Commissioner Silver! America’s unions have our players’ backs.

@cantwell.senate.gov teams up with @blumenthal.senate.gov, @booker.senate.gov, Andrew Morris, Spencer Haywood, Dwayne Allen, & @meghannburke.bsky.social to discuss how the SCORE Act hurts college athletes. www.commerce.senate.gov/2025/10/form...
