Not coincidentally this is a pretty good list of Most Important Companies to Unionize.
The Boston Globe identified the companies in Massachusetts that employ the most SNAP recipients. A key stat: "In Massachusetts, 74% of working-age recipients of the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program are employed, half of them full-time."

I really appreciate that @pbsnews.org ended the interview with this graphic.

Today, our brave neighbors refused to let go of anyone’s hand. They put their bodies on the line to stop ICE kidnappings. I’m proud that my bill to clarify & strengthen our sanctuary laws & stop ICE from setting up in any of our jails is being heard on 12/8. We must fight to protect our neighbors.
