Addressing society's biggest problems requires a pro-worker approach. Otherwise, poverty, inequality, and corporate power will only continue to expand. The Maine Labor Climate Council understands this better than most and we are proud to partner with them!

Check out @laborhousing.bsky.social and their new initiative to address housing AND workers rights!

A key part of this Initiative will be partnering not just with labor unions, but also with organizations fighting for housing justice and working to end homelessness. One of these partners is the Mid-Maine Homeless Shelter & Services in Waterville, Maine.
