Whether on the field or the factory floor, every worker deserves a safe workplace and dignity and respect on the job.

All of America’s unions stand in solidarity with USL players as they stand up and fight for the pro standards they deserve.

This week, we stood with the Amazon Teamsters, NYC Comptroller Brad Lander, Council Member Tiffany Cabán, and others to advocate on behalf of the workers and communities impacted by the rapid growth of last mile delivery services.
NYC CLC, AFL-CIO Sec-Treas Janella T. Hinds: “The subcontracting structure in last-mile delivery drives unsafe conditions & weakens accountability. Intro 1396 meets this head on, setting clear standards for operators & making them responsible for the jobs & the delivery practices they oversee.”

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas at corporate stores nationwide are on strike! For 4 years, they have fought tirelessly for a fair contract, and Starbucks has responded by union-busting.

America’s unions stand in solidarity with baristas. We have your backs! ✊

“No contract, no coffee is more than a tagline—it’s a pledge to interrupt Starbucks’ operations and profits until a fair union contract and an end to unfair labor practices are won.”
