“...Congress must do their jobs. We view this as not just a policy disagreement that will result in the collapse of the Forest Service as we know it, but also a breach of the Constitution. President Trump is blatantly attempting to ignore the laws his own party passed." 🧵

Welp, the email to all of us, from management, was a nest of links. The information that all employees need to know is this document we've copied and pasted for your reference. Please share widely so that nobody gets surprised this season! #telematics #besafe #nffestrong

We're working on organizing the Uintah-Wasatch-Cache national forest. #uwc #utah

Our rights weren’t given—they were fought for and won by workers who refused to accept dismal working conditions. Today, working people carry their strength in our fight for justice. #MayDay

This union brother, firefighter, silviculturalist, and vetran recently passed away. We're helping fundraise for his wife and kiddo. If you have a few $$ to spare, please consider donating to this family. Reposting helps too. www.gofundme.com/f/in-memory-... #firefighter #veteran #bettertogether

Ever wondered where we have something posted? try our linktree- linktr.ee/NFFE_FSC

What is this article 11 we keep speaking of? The first couple slides explain the "what" while the subsequent slides get into the substance of the article in the Master Agreement.

35 Senators have questions for USDA/ the agency. That's 1/3 of the senators. Many are questions we and employees have been asking since day one; the non-answers from the agency are glaring. We're filing an info request + the responses to the article 11s. #savetheUSFS #bettertogether #nffestrong

Realignment guidance is out-please share widely nffe.org/nffe_news/u-...

How much do workers’ lives cost? Last year, the median federal OSHA penalty for worker deaths was only $16,550. Safety violations shouldn’t just be a cost of doing business. aflcio.org/dotj

And our firefighters are out there breathing this with zero ppe available (an n95 isn't going to help )

Everyday can be Earth Day in our jobs btwn fire fighting with right sized tactics, including MIST, slinging d-tapes (hugging trees), to ecosystem restoration and maintenance by our teams. All our jobs contribute to caring for the land and serving people. #ourworkmatters #savetheUSFS #unionstrong

Why would the Trump admin need to access federal workers’ medical records? There’s absolutely no reason. These constant attacks on federal workers jeopardizes them, their families, and the essential services we all rely on.

Reintroducing ourselves. What else would you like to know?

Please help us stop the illegal dismantling of the Forest Service actionnetwork.org/letters/cong... (we're the largest FS union representing 20,000 Forest Service employees including many of the ~7000 being forced to move) @altnps.bsky.social

USDA released Reorganization plans for the US Forest Service. We are actively engaging in negotiations to the benefit of our bargianing unit employees and the Agency.

In the Trump administration’s reorganization of the struggling agency, painful echoes of BLM’s past moves.

This is a good point-a bunch of these buildings have been on again off again in terms of being sold.

It's been a day. The initial call was followed by hour long multiregional breakouts, followed by regional breakouts. The info dam broke and a deluge of information was released. #fsreorg #bettertogether #ourworkmatters #FSReorg #bettertogether #ourworkmatters

“Working people are waking up to their power. They’re sick and tired of being sick and tired.” AFL-CIO President @lizshuler.bsky.social joined the America’s Work Force Union Podcast to talk about union organizing momentum, Women’s History Month, AI and more. Tune in! youtu.be/2s1RABP6R1I

Yeah we do! #bettertogether #unionsmatter #nffestrong

Filmed at our recent Intermediate Steward Training this is a look at what they're about. www.goiam.org/news/nffe-ia...

This Women’s History Month, we want to say thank you to all the women leaders within our union in the AFLCIO, IAM, and NFFE. We recognize & appreciate the strong leaders before us, making it possible for us to be where we are today and propell us to create more opportunities into the future.

We're learning the contents of the proposal with the rest of our colleagues. #unionsmatter #bettertogether #nffestrong www.youtube.com/live/crMKJ2w...

Good luck to @pwhlpa.bsky.social union members on Team USA and Team Canada as they prepare to fight for gold in women’s hockey today at the Olympics! #BetterInAUnion

Did you know the union gets you great group rates on temporary disability, life insurance, and dental/ vision coverage @nffebenefits.bsky.social is the team to get you prices and details.

Throughout his life, Rev. Jackson fought tirelessly for workers, both at home and around the world. At every turn, he reminded us that the fight for good jobs, living wages, and union rights is inseparable from the fight for justice and equality. May he rest in power.

Three action alerts today! 1) Do this on a break or after hours. 2) Share it with friends and family and encourage them to help fix the laws that need fixing. One fixes #hazardpay on #prescribedFire, one our ability to buy back seasonal time, the last helps protect union rights for VA employees.

It's been a busy couple of months, trainingwise, but we wouldn't have it any other way! We're working on photos from the other classes, if you have them, please slide them into our dms @iamw3center #bettertogether #nffestrong #unionsmatter

Keep notes, go back through your photo reel- the return on investment is worth it. #yourworkmatters #bettertogether #unionsmatter #nffestrong #hazardpay
