The Senate Banking Committee is considering the CLARITY Act, a bill that would open workers’ retirement accounts to volatile cryptocurrency, jeopardizing millions of workers’ retirement security. The Senate must stand with workers and reject this bill.

The faculty of St. John’s University deserve respect, a fair contract, and voice on the job without intimidation. We stand in solidarity with the union faculty fighting back against union busting from the administration. An injury to one is an injury to all.

Prices are up on gas, groceries, rent, utilities, health care, and just about everything else. Shit’s too expensive and workers’ wages aren’t keeping up. America’s unions worry about this 24/7. Our President of the United States should, too.

The overwhelming majority of America’s workers agree on how to move forward on AI—with guardrails that ensure transparency and accountability and protect our jobs, privacy and rights. Who do they trust to deliver on AI guardrails? The labor movement.

Our new polling shows that more than 90% of workers favor protections from AI for their jobs and privacy and trust unions to deliver over either political party. Workers are united and ready to fight for an AI future that works for them, not just big tech. https://bit.ly/4dkXvTA

Solidarity with our @iatse.bsky.social union family at CoComelon: The Melon Patch as they go on STRIKE and fight for fair pay, benefits and better staffing with an improved work load. America’s unions have your backs!

Working people will be critical to the success of the World Cup—and they deserve respect, dignity and safety on the job. When the World Cup comes to the United States, FIFA must keep people safe by demanding ICE stay out of the host cities.

Wages are not keeping up with skyrocketing inflation. Prices are going up on everything from rent, to groceries, gas, utilities and more. This is a cost-of-living crisis. We can start providing some relief by giving workers a raise NOW.

We’re in the heart of Teacher Appreciation Week, and the impact of our educators couldn’t be clearer. Every day, they show up for our students with dedication, patience, and care. Let’s keep showing up for them, too. #TeacherAppreciationWeek

The working people of New York City know that a good union job can bring a family into the middle class and provide the safety, healthcare, dignity, and respect that we all deserve. Anything less is unacceptable.

NYC is a union town! We are proud to stand with Laborers Local 79 to call out the disrespect for working people on the part of Apollo Global. Exploitation of workers - whether in the construction industry or of university professors - just will not fly. Do better Apollo!

CEO pay rose 20x faster than workers’ pay in 2025. Top CEOs already make 285x what workers do—and they’re fed up. Working people don’t have to accept this. A union contract is how we take back our power and get our fair share of the profits WE create.

Tomorrow at 12:00 PM: Join Laborers Local 79 in their fight against exploitation in the construction industry! 9 West 57th Street ✊

On Workers Memorial Day, America’s unions mourn the workers who have lost their lives or been injured or made ill on the job. Every worker should be able to go home after their shift safe and healthy, and we’ll keep fighting like hell to make that a reality for every worker.

Today, we honor Workers’ Memorial Day—remembering every worker who never made it home. We stand in solidarity and recommit to fighting for safer workplaces for all.

We’ve released our 35th annual report “Death on the Job: The Toll of Neglect.” 5,070 workers died on the job in 2024. Every worker should be able to go home safe and healthy after their shift, but the Trump admin is putting workers at greater risk. https://bit.ly/4ecBjx3
