Getting into the holiday spirit today by asking our neighbors to support @mayorwu.boston.gov's sensible proposal to protect residents against a tax spike while commercial taxes decrease.

Our union contracts include all-day paid trainings for Local 26 shop stewards. We had a full house at our stewards training last week. It was great to see everyone, learn from each other, & bring that all that knowledge back to the shops to enforce our contracts! #1union #unionfamily

@aramark.bsky.social workers at Fenway Park & MGM Music Hall have been fighting for a fair contract for almost a year. Together, we're going to keep fighting until we WIN fair wages & job security! #WhenWeFightWeWin

The Protect America’s Workforce Act, our bipartisan bill to restore union rights to 1 million federal workers, is getting a vote in Congress!

Call your reps NOW and tell them to pass this bill and reverse the Trump admin’s union-busting executive order. https://bit.ly/4r6Ep9M

One Day Stronger! @sbworkersunited.org is stronger than any Starbucks coffee 💪🏽

"666 is a weird number there, Starbucks CEO!" 😂
The devil is in the details.

THIS IS INCREDIBLY INSPIRING!

Please watch and share as Starbucks baristas demonstrate outside the company's biggest distribution hub.

They're on DAY 7 of their strike. Baristas and their allies are protesting Starbucks’ serious and unresolved unfair labor practices.

REPOST IF YOU SUPPORT THEM

Technology in the form of vending machines, grab-and-go items, & self-checkout counters @fenwaypark.bsky.social is eating into workers’ earnings & taking away jobs. We need guardrails!
Shoutout to Superman for his support of @aramark.bsky.social Fenway workers who went #OnStrike this summer. 🦸🏽🪧⚾️

Shop Stewards are the backbone of our Union. They enforce contracts, handle grievances, and sacrifice their time to make sure everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Pictured here are some of our fabulous hotel workers and key leaders! #UnionStrong #sísepuede

🔊Strike Alert! Don't Buy Starbucks!

"The beginning of the strike coincides with Starbucks’ Red Cup Day, a promotion where customers receive a reusable red holiday cup with the purchase of a holiday drink. It is typically one of the company’s biggest sales days of the year."

As the holidays approach, please remember the people who work tirelessly to make the holidays happen for everyone across the country. Like all workers, they should be able to feel safe on the job and be treated with dignity and respect.
As the holiday shopping season is underway, the RWDSU issued the following statement urging workers be treated with dignity and respect from in-store shopping to e-commerce warehousing, from farm to table and everything in between: nycclc.org/news/holiday...

People go to @fenwaypark.bsky.social for that wicked local Boston experience. The ballpark’s charm comes from its old-timey vibe that encourages fans to interact with real Bostonians in all their humor & candor. Workers went on strike in July because automation ​is taking away #unionjobs

Friendly reminder for @aramark.bsky.social:
Concessions and warehouse workers earn higher wages at less iconic ballparks where the Miami @marlins.com and the Seattle @mariners.com play.
It's time to raise the bar for workers' pay at Boston’s Fenway Park! #fairwages #faircontractnow

Out-of-state sports fans & members of the @redsox.com Nation
love going to @fenwaypark.bsky.social, not just for the game but to interact with their favorite workers. @aramark.bsky.social workers at Fenway deserve to be paid #fairwages for their dedication & hard work! #FenwayFamily #FairContract
