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.

On February 9th, MCU and union avoidance law firm Jackson Lewis unjustly fired the union employees' Chief Shop Steward and OPEIU Local 153 Board Member, Renee Spradley for her union activity. We demand that Municipal Credit Union re-instate Renee immediately!

America’s unions mourn the passing of Rev. Jesse Jackson, a towering moral force whose commitment to justice reshaped our labor and civil rights movements.

Our hearts are with the Jackson family and all those who are mourning this immeasurable loss.

Working people are concerned about their jobs and whether they can pay their bills. The Trump economy is making it harder every day for working people to get by.

A union contract is how we can start to level the playing field and get our fair share.

The Delivery Protection Act will not only empower labor but deliver more environmental justice to the disproportionately Black residents most affected by last-mile facilities.

@tiffanycaban.bsky.social's term as co-chair of the Council's @nycprogressives.bsky.social caucus is off to a great start.
NYC CLC President Griffith speaks in support of the Delivery Protection Act in the City Council: Labor stands united behind this bill because the stakes are real. Workers and communities are being left behind. Pass the Delivery Protection Act!

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas at corporate stores are fighting for respect and a fair contract while their CEO makes 6,666x what they do. If Starbucks won’t respect baristas, they don’t deserve our clicks and orders. Delete the Starbucks app!

The SAVE Act would not protect election integrity — it would make it harder for working people who can’t afford fancy vacations abroad to vote.

Congress should be protecting our right to vote, not taking it away. We urge Congress to oppose this bill.
