Mercedes CEO pay jumped 80% last year. 8 execs got $27 MILLION in raises. Alabama Mercedes workers got left behind. That changes May 13-17 with the union election at Mercedes. #StandUpMercedes #VoteUAWYes #StandUpUAW
The National Labor Relations Act still functions, just barely, for Starbucks workers. Employees at fast-food franchises face even worse odds under federal labor law. Read @brian_callaci on lessons from Starbucks Workers United and Fight for $15. dissentmagazine.org/online_article…
Mercedes will begin sending torrents of text messages to its 5,200 workers today. Workers said the company can’t be bothered to send texts when a shift is canceled. But nothing is impossible when it comes to busting the union.
Bill Barr responds to Donald Trump mocking him after he said he would vote for him in 2024. And it's something.

i love how the cuny encampment is not only a space to show solidarity for palestine and a way to protest for our demands, but also a space of community. we’re creating a set list of programming everyday for people to take part in, not just those in cuny. come by 💓🇵🇸
Great op-ed by @AlabamaAFLCIO. The real leeches are anti-worker GOP politicians like @GovernorKayIvey, not workers who are standing together to better their lives and create a more hopeful future for all working people in the South #OrganizeTheSouth al.com/opinion/2024/0…
The historian @NelsonLichtens1 has a great piece up explaining the Labor Notes phenomenon, which both reflects and helped birth the labor movement renaissance of the past few years. prospect.org/labor/2024-04-…

“At Labor Notes what was on display was the link between transforming your union and more militant strikes that deliver for workers and their communities,” @Lfelizleon told @ellafanger. “Who doesn’t want to join a fighting union?” thenation.com/article/econom…

🚨ALL OUT TO CITY COLLEGE 🚨 CCNY has begun barricading campus entrances and closing off gates to prevent access to the encampment. Student organizers are putting out an urgent call for supporters to turn out NOW in solidarity before the campus is closed off completely! 🇵🇸

I have been suspended from Cornell University alongside three others for my presence in our encampment. Cornell thinks that picking off four students will be sufficient to destroy our movement. They’re wrong — all they have done is enraged our community.
13 socialist elected officials across NY State are issuing this joint statement condemning the repression of student protestors & standing in solidarity with student encampments for a free Palestine: bit.ly/sio4-26

“When students vote overwhelmingly for divestment and administrators ignore them, the unmistakable conclusion is that the development of students’ critical thinking is an inconvenience to the institution, not its primary purpose.”

If you're a Tenture Track faculty at a private uni and you and your co-workers are gonna do a work stoppage, it might be worth it to claim you're doing so over a legitimate working condition and put this to the test
Silver lining: the way in which universities are having their faculty arrested, threatening tenured faculty with unstated punishment, and disciplining students against faculty wishes shows how much faculty don't run the university -- and so undermines Yeshiva v. NLRB.
Not quite accurate. It was intended to promote collective bargaining. The reason is, of course, because they believed protected collective bargaining would reduce violent strikes — but that’s also not what happened.
The NLRA and subsequent new deal labor regulation was intended to cool down labor activity, not protect it. This is the historical truth. Until the New Deal, labor radicalism was on the upswing, after, it declined along with the rest of the labor movement. Basic history
@evilballerninja No, I’m demonstrating that you’re citing arguments that you don’t actually understand.
i love how the cuny encampment is not only a space to show solidarity for palestine and a way to protest for our demands, but also a space of community. we’re creating a set list of programming everyday for people to take part in, not just those in cuny. come by 💓🇵🇸
