New Yorkers: Rank Zohran #1 for Mayor. Zohran fights for the working class, not the billionaire class. www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0xL...

This is a very important story. It is also important to understand that this is how ICE operates. They disappear people. Family members and lawyers often cannot get information from ICE about where inmates are located and they cannot contact them. It has been this way for a long time.

"Now is the time for working New Yorkers to stand up, reject Andrew Cuomo and Eric Adams, and fight for our future with our slate of @bradlander.bsky.social, @jessicaramosqns.bsky.social, and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social." region9a.uaw.org/news/dreamnyc

@uawregion9a.bsky.social's Director Brandon Mancilla and NYC Area Political Council chair @janefox.bsky.social provide more context here on how the D.R.E.A.M. campaign fits into 9A's overall strategy for electing a mayor who will actually be good for working people. region9a.uaw.org/news/dreamnyc

In 2025, we're going to make the D.R.E.A.M of electing a labor champion a reality. Proud as hell to stand with @uaw.org Region9A Director Brandon Mancilla and fight to elect the Mayor we deserve. This June, Don’t Rank Eric (Adams) or Andrew (Cuomo) for Mayor. region9a.uaw.org/news/dreamnyc

Join us on Sunday February 2nd at 2pm in Foley Square as we kick off our historic sectoral bargaining campaign!!!

Gov. Kathy Hochul had the chance to stop the bleeding & failed. “Our members are the backbone of NY’s court system...Hochul must include it in the Executive Budget or she will be pushing our members out of public service,” said Lisa Ohta of UAW Local 2325. www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2025/...

New: Four years after hearing Biden promise bold action on student debt, most borrowers are still no better off, and many—especially defrauded debtors—are measurably worse off. Biden’s mistakes mimic Obama’s + why voters lose faith in the Democratic Party. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Student debt relief is a key labor issue for legal services. Getting this bill passed would be life changing for @lasattysunited.bsky.social members in @uaw.org amsterdamnews.com/news/2024/12...

You know what the White House reminds me of right now? The Titanic. "So far the only lifeboat that's been launched is a pardon for the president’s son. What about everyone else? Erasing student debt is one way for the admin to put ordinary people into lifeboats. newrepublic.com/article/1891...

After months of stalled negotiations, UAW Local 2179 members at the Strand Bookstore walked off the job yesterday, the first strike at the Manhattan book shop since the 1990s. Join the picket from 10 AM to 7 PM to help our members win a fair contract! region9a.uaw.org/news/strando...

This bill would mean over 90% of our @uaw.org attorney members would have 100% of their student loan bills covered for 8 years. It would be transformative for legal services attorneys across the whole state. queenseagle.com/all/2024/12/...

Today UAW 9a's NYC area Cap Council endorsed 3 candidates for Mayor. Check it out ↘️ www.thecity.nyc/2024/12/04/u...

Let’s pardon student loans next.

If canceling student debt actually helped the wealthy, they would have done it a long time ago.

Another union member from @lasattysunited.bsky.social got her student debt cancelled today through PSLF. We've gotten over $24.1 million in student loans cancelled for our members to date!

Organizing a national student debt strike in 2025. www.insidehighered.com/news/governm...

one way to think about the dems in the last 8 years is that they wanted all the electoral benefits of being a popular front against authoritarianism but none of the substantive commitments

These folks including our own UAW members from @lasattysunited.bsky.social are legally entitled to debt cancellation and the Biden administration is leaving them hanging. www.marketwatch.com/story/their-...

Saw two bald eagles flying low and to the north this morning. Do we think they know?

Still figuring out this new place but over in the bad place I posted a lot about student debt and why debt is a working class issue. Student loan payments are going to jump hundreds of dollars per month under Trump. Has anyone told the podcast Dems yet? www.yahoo.com/news/higher-...

Am I at the right party?
