Cold weather WON'T hold working people back. We are standing outside in freezing temperatures because worker's voices matter - and we won't stay quiet while Bellefaire JCB leadership tries to silence them.

Call CEO Jeffrey Lox (#216-402-5534). Demand justice, demand he restore worker's Union NOW!

Workers at the Villa of Marymount and Marymount Place are standing together and standing strong today as they take the next steps toward unionization and demand management recognize their Union.

Every community felt the damage of the shutdown: missed paychecks, lost food assistance, and families left without the healthcare relief they need. Reopening the government doesn't erase the harm. Healthcare is still in jeopardy, and working families are being left behind.

SEIU 1199 WV/KY/OH honors and thanks all veterans for their service. Happy Veterans Day!

Health care costs could surge in 2026 if Congress lets ACA premium tax credits expire. Millions of working families will pay the price, unless lawmakers act now. Call congress at 202-224-3121 and tell them to act now!

It's Election Day! Today, get out and vote. It's time to weigh in on city council races, school boards and major ballot issues.

Happy Halloween! This year, make sure to shop union-made when purchasing all of your Halloween treats.

A little rain won't keep workers justice away! Bellefaire workers who recently had their Union representation stolen by Bellefaire JCB are fighting back, rain or shine, and demanding CEO Jeffery Lox and Bellefaire management restore their Union and restore their voice.

Congress MUST stand up for families that rely on SNAP. This administration MUST take steps to protect our communities from hunger. Call your Congressperson at (202) 224-3121 and urge them to fund SNAP during the shutdown - and beyond.

Ohio and Kentucky just ranked among the worst economies in the U.S. 🚨 State leaders are holding us back. It’s time to hold our leaders accountable — call (202) 224-3121 and demand your representative hear our voices.

SEIU 1199 WKO Members and community members stood together at the Ohio Statehouse to demand politicians respect voters and stop cheating Ohioans out of fair representation by gerrymandering our maps. #WeAreStrongerTogether

The Consumer Price Index rose 2.7% in July on an annual basis. Economists predict that the tariffs that Trump put in place will exacerbate inflation even more. It is time to stand up to the billionaires who continue creating price hikes for their own gain. #WorkersFirst

Make sure you know your RIGHTS at work, they may help you one day. These rights come from Supreme Court cases that established specific protections to certain employees during workplace investigations.

There’s a lot of information circulating out there about this administration’s Big “Beautiful” Bill. We are debunking misinformation and uncovering the truth about this not-so-beautiful bill. Don’t like what you see? Tell your representatives. Call 202-225-3121.
July 11, 2025 at 4:11 PM
They are trying to divide us, weaken our unions, and blame our communities. We have seen this before and we know better. We’re organizing, we’re united, and we will not back down. Call your elected officials and demand they start putting workers first: 202-225-3121

Hospitals will close, kids will go hungry, healthcare costs will go up, our neighbors will feel the threat of ICE more than ever. Republicans knew the harm this bill would cause and passed it anyways. They traded our health for their wealth. We must continue to fight and stand united.
July 3, 2025 at 8:14 PM
Elected officials want to take our rights away by the 4th of July. Nothing about that represents freedom for the American people. We have less than a month to call our representatives at 202-225-3121 and urge them to vote no on this harmful bill!
July 2, 2025 at 1:53 PM
BREAKING: By a tiebreaker vote, this administration’s supposed “Big Beautiful Bill” has passed in the Senate and now returns to the House. We won’t let them steal from us. Call your state representatives NOW at 202-225-3121 and tell them to VOTE NO on these cuts.
July 1, 2025 at 6:31 PM
Our essential programs are at risk, including cuts to Medicaid, education, and aid to state and local government - all to help pay for billionaires to get tax cuts. Call your Senator today and tell them to put the needs of working people over lining the pockets of the super-rich. #WorkersFirst
July 1, 2025 at 1:32 PM
WKO members are still going strong in DC. We are flooding every committee room in the Senate to remind our senators that their "big beautiful bill" kills! #DeathByATrillionCuts
June 25, 2025 at 10:18 PM
It's hot in our nation's capital, but SEIU 1199 WKO members are turning up the HEAT on Senate Republicans trying to rip healthcare away from children and working families. Not on our watch! #DeathByATrillionCuts
June 24, 2025 at 8:28 PM
We're fighting back against injustice! WKO members travelled to DC and took part today in a living cemetery to show lawmakers exactly what will happen to the American people if they sacrifice our healthcare to pay for tax cuts for the rich! #HandsOff #DeathByATrillionCuts
June 23, 2025 at 6:24 PM
SEIU 1199 WKO member Cassie shared with us how cuts to Medicaid would affect Head Start programs and put her mother's health at risk. Our communities can't afford these rollbacks. Call your congressperson at 202-224-3121 and tell them to vote no on the "Big Beautiful Bill"

UPDATE: David Huerta has been released from the hospital but remains in custody.

His words: "We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice. This is injustice."

Free David Huerta. Free them ALL.
