WORKER WIN: A construction company will pay $725,000 in restitution and penalties over wage theft.
Christian Siding illegally misclassified more than 200 workers at 16 projects and failed to pay prevailing wages at 3 DC-funded affordable housing projects.
In DC, what you earn is what you are owed.

I’m so proud to be with thousands of my union sisters today at Tradeswomen Build Nations, the largest gathering of tradeswomen in the world!
Tradeswomen are powerful trailblazers, and when we come together, we can lead the way in the trades and our labor movement.

I dunno, Cliff, maybe because people are exhausted from working their asses off their whole lives and STILL being broke? Because everything is expensive and systems are broken and people are saying "fuck it" and choosing a healthy work-life balance?

Sat in on a tele town hall with Cliff Bentz tonight. Questions were screened in advance, in his favor, and he got audibly pissed when someone DARED to suggest they're cutting Medicaid. "People just need to go find a job! Why is no one working anymore?"

I agree wholeheartedly... but they won't. They seem to have proven that their actions don't have consequences, and who's going to hold them accountable? Democrats? John Q. Public? Unlikely.
When someone shows you who they are, believe them.
The unqualified, self-serving, and lying rejects Trump picked to run this country are showing us they can't do anything right.
Someone F’d up. And someone’s gotta go down for it.

When work tells you they have no work for you (and you don't have PTO), all you can do is shrug and take your dogs for a jaunt among the snow mounds.

DOGE’s USDA cuts are beyond reckless. Rotting food at ports, rising grocery prices, and invasive species spreading unchecked?
That’s not efficiency. It’s working people paying the price.

Men are shifting right because Republicans are making their lives worse and telling them to blame women and immigrants.
Democrats should be pointing out this *extremely obvious* dynamic, not trying to peddle a lighter version of the same narrative.
