Hey Red Sox, I'm a diehard fan - but the fact that your owner John Henry doubled his net worth in just 5 years - to $5.5 BILLION - and you pay many of your workers $10/hour less than comparable earners in the area...it stinks.
Hundreds of Aramark workers at Fenway Park are on strike and planning to stay out for all of a homestand between the Boston Red Sox and the Los Angeles Dodgers starting Friday night.

A reminder that if the minimum wage had kept pace with worker productivity gains since the 1960s, it would now be nearly $26 an hour.

Weekends & the 40 hour work week are because of unions. Unions lift all boats

Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea?
139 years ago today, in Bay View, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 7 workers (including a 13 yo) lost their lives to advance this revolutionary idea.

On this May Day, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.

URGENT: Federal immigration agents stopped a bus of farm workers from Lynn-Ette & Sons Farms on Fri am. They had a list of names, including UFW worker leaders who have been organizing to unionize their workplace. Those workers were detained. Count on me to help! ufw.org/nyraid5225

So the Republican Party has historically blocked:
-Paid sick leave
-Paid family & medical leave
-Universal childcare
-Universal pre-K
-Expanded Child Tax Credit
-Programs to support reproductive health
And they're wondering why more people aren't having children?

After citing Trump's tariffs as an excuse for mass layoffs, automaker Stellantis is rewarding shareholders with a $2.26B payout.
Big corporations will use any cover they can — like inflation or tariffs — to pad profits and line their pockets at workers expense.
