Congratulations to @boilermakers.bsky.social members at Ingalls Shipyard in Pascagoula, Mississippi on approving a contract! These workers successfully bargained historic wage increases for nearly 6,000 workers. #ItsBetterInAUnion

In recent years, violent attacks and serious crimes against letter carriers have become twice as frequent. We join the @lettercarriers.bsky.social in calling on Congress to cosponsor and pass the Protect Our Letter Carriers Act to keep these public servants safe.

Transportation labor stands in solidarity with Breeze Air Line Pilots Association, Int’l (ALPA) members on the picket line. Since Breeze Airways' founding 5 years ago, management has refused to cooperate and get a first contract done. These pilots deserve dignity, fairness, and respect on the job.

Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month is a time to honor the immeasurable historical & cultural contributions of the AANHPI community. TTD is proud to represent skilled transportation workers like Saia, Sasha, Sharon, & Malia!

Massachusetts is now the first state to certify a rideshare driver union after granting Lyft and Uber drivers' collective bargaining rights. This is the largest new private-sector union in over 85 years. 70,000 workers are now represented by the App Drivers Union.

Workers made history today-- for the first time, nearly 70,000 Massachusetts rideshare drivers now have official union recognition. Congratulations to the App Drivers Union, @iamunion.bsky.social, and @32bjseiu.bsky.social on this incredible victory!

Transportation labor is always fighting for robust infrastructure investment. Infrastructure Week is a reminder that #BuildingAStrongerAmerica means strong labor standards, workforce development, and prioritization of safety.

25 years after the terror attacks on September 11, 2001, we remain grateful for the dedicated Transportation Security Administration (TSA) workers repped by AFGE. As AFGE National President Everett Kelley says, we must continue to support this vital workforce that keeps the flying public safe.

Happy Infrastructure Week! @ttdaflcio.bsky.social President Greg Regan kicked it off with a panel with United For Infrastructure on workforce development alongside labor and business stakeholders. Together, we're #BuildingAStrongerAmerica.

STATEMENT: @ttdaflcio.bsky.social, America's largest transportation labor federation, stands with the five unions representing striking Long Island Rail Road employees. Their demands are simple and straightforward: pay LIRR workers a fair wage for the essential work they do.

For us, it's always campaign szn! This week, fellow transportation labor communicators joined us at the Transportation Trades Department, AFL-CIO offices to hear updates on legislative priorities, strike prep, contract negotiations, and more.

STATEMENT: we commend Senator Cantwell & the Senate Democrats who signed a letter urging Appropriators to fund transportation infrastructure programs at levels meeting or exceeding the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Continued investment in workers & communities makes America stronger.

Another Tuesday, another Rail Labor Division meeting! Rail labor leaders and representatives were at the AFL-CIO headquarters today, discussing legislative and regulatory priorities that would make our rail network safer and more efficient for workers, passengers & communities.

Saturday, May 9th, was National Train Day! We are grateful for the workers who build, operate, and maintain our freight & passenger rail systems. @ttdaflcio.bsky.social will never stop advocating for a safe, reliable rail network.

Rail labor representatives from across the country were in San Antonio, TX this week at the Federal Railroad Administration 2026 National Labor Meeting, where they advocated for stronger safety regulations and more consideration for rail workers' voices in the rule-making process.

The @machinistsunion.bsky.social was founded on May 5, 1888. 19 railroaders came together to form the Order of the United Machinists and Mechanical Engineers. Today, the IAM stands nearly 600,000 members strong. Happy Founding Day!

We're feeling solidarity all across the galaxy today! May the 4th be with you 🪐

LISTEN: TTD President Greg Regan talks collective bargaining rights and workplace protections for transportation security officers on America's Work Force Union Podcast.

#WorkersMemorialDay is a solemn reminder that job safety often comes second to corporate profits. We must do all we can to preserve existing safety laws & regulations and expand protections so that no family has to endure the hardship of a loved one never coming home from work.

ICYMI: Last month, @brslaborunion.bsky.social member Ron Conner Orhs wrote about the importance of rail crossing safety & education in his community of Orrville, Ohio. Signal workers save lives by keeping rail operations safe.

Yesterday, we joined maritime labor leaders, members, & advocates on Capitol Hill for their annual sail-in. The perspective of the maritime workforce is crucial as we work to revitalize American shipping dominance, protect the Jones Act & fortify our national security.

We thank Senators Coons & Hawley, as well as Congressmen Deluzio & Nehls for introducing this long overdue bill. Currently, railroaders & their spouses are subjected to benefits deductions if they choose to work after retirement. It's time to put money back in the pockets of rail retirees.

We're proud to welcome TTD's newest Legislative Representative, Nawaid Ladak. Originally from Florida, Nawaid has over a decade of experience on Capitol Hill working on a variety of policy issue areas, including transportation and trade.

ICYMI: we thank the 80+ members of Congress who signed a bipartisan letter urging fellow lawmakers to increase administrative funding levels for the Railroad Retirement Board, which helps thousands of railroaders access retirement, unemployment, sickness benefits & more.

We join our MTI siblings in mourning the loss of the Honorable Rod Diridon, Sr. We extend our deepest condolences to all who knew him. San José Diridon Station in Santa Clara County, CA carries on his name & honors his legacy of public service. transweb.sjsu.edu/Hon.-Rod-Dir...

We ❤️ infrastructure, especially in the City of Brotherly Love! It's great to see the redevelopment underway at William H. Gray III 30th Street Station, the 3rd-busiest Amtrak station in America. It's a new era of rail for Philly! media.amtrak.com/2024/01/amtrak…

LISTEN: On America's Work Force Union Podcast, TTD President Greg Regan speaks on union opposition to the broad 60-day Jones Act Waiver, which hurts the U.S. maritime workforce and ultimately will not lower gas prices for the average American.

TSA officers are approaching 40 days without a paycheck while Americans wait in airport security lines that overflow into parking lots. Transportation labor calls on lawmakers to resolve this issue & pay these essential workers now. Our statement:

Local leaders know that a derailment can be catastrophic for the communities they serve. TTD President Regan joined National League of Cities' Congressional City Conference to discuss labor's support for comprehensive rail safety legislation to protect communities & workers.

A broad 60-day Jones Act waiver jeopardizes national security, hurts our maritime workforce & does nothing to lower gas prices for everyday Americans. Our joint statement with MEBA, MM&P, the Maritime Trades Dept. & 5 other maritime labor groups: lnkd.in/eXEzyCpu

There's only one thing that guarantees strong labor protections, fair wages, and good benefits: a union contract. Happy St. Patrick's Day from America's transportation unions!

This is the only red carpet we're walking this awards season! Throwback to the launch of the union-made Acela NextGen trainsets, which made history as the fastest passenger trains in America.

Rail workers and their families rely on the Railroad Retirement Board for access to their hard-earned retirement, sickness, & unemployment benefits. TTD, IBT, AAR & ASLRRA urge Congress to give RRB sufficient resources to serve railroaders:

93 years ago today, President FDR gave his first-ever Fireside Chat. Yesterday, TTD President Greg Regan joined ITS America for a Fireside Chat where he emphasized how the worker perspective is not just valuable, but crucial, in the deployment & development of new tech.

Today we joined our union siblings to call for revisions on the ALERT Act, which is set to be marked up by the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee next week. It is crucial that Congress accounts for the NTSB's recommendations to keep the flying public safe: ttd.org/policy/lette...

Railroad tracks run through countless communities. Without safety reform, risk of a toxic derailment like the one in East Palestine, OH is ever-present. We thank Reps. Chris Deluzio, Mike Rulli, Nick LaLota & John Garamendi for reintroducing the bipartisan Railway Safety Act. ttd.org/news-and-med...

We're here for women in aviation during hashtag#WomensHistoryMonth! Hawaiian Airlines CEO Diana Birkett Rakow joined the Air Line Pilots Association, Association of Flight Attendants-CWA and others recently at Aero Club DC.
