BREAKING: Tesla has fired 30+ workers at its Buffalo gigafactory, one day after workers there announced a unionization campaign. Tesla managers announced surprise performance reviews, then fired 8x as many workers as usual. Tesla is notorious for union-busting.
Here with workers at Remedy House Coffee in Buffalo, where the company just fired Meghan, a leader of the union there, as she gave them a letter announcing they are forming a union.
Breaking: 4 months after baristas at Intelligentsia Coffee's Chicago locations voted to unionize w/ @IBEW Local 1220, the workers have won a first contract that includes raises, paid meal breaks, & fairer scheduling. The company decided to just negotiate (unlike Starbucks).
1,414 yes - 28 no (313 provisional ballots not counted)
No Joe, you’re supposed to help the railroad workers… you got it backwards. A handful of sick days c’mon! Workers of the world unite!
No Joe, you’re supposed to help the railroad workers… you got it backwards. A handful of sick days c’mon! Workers of the world unite!
BREAKING: The largest railroad workers union, SMART-TD, has voted to reject a tentative contract agreement. Meanwhile, BLET, the second largest union, has voted to approve the agreement. If SMART-TD or other unions strike all the rail unions will honor the picket lines.

Since last year Socialist Alternative became intensely interested in our campaign. They went quickly from supporting us to trying to take over our campaign. If you’re in a new organizing campaign or any other movement just be careful with them. I can get into more details
@Ticketmaster Ticketmaster is destroying live music. Their scam fees now cost as much as 78% of a ticket. They control the events, the venues, even the artists. There’s a movement pushing the Justice Department to break up their monopoly.
I don’t think the general public, and even people who follow this stuff, appreciate how high the stakes are in the bargaining that’s underway b/w Starbucks and its union. 1/

NEW: How did coffee shop workers become the vanguard of the labor movement? We spoke to the workers who organized the first unionized coffeeshop in Massachusetts (and the second, third, and fourth). This is the story behind the Boston coffeeshop union revolution.
When Pavement Coffeehouse unionized with @nejbUNITEHERE, it sparked a wave of organizing across the Boston area. First Darwin's. Then Diesel, Block and Forge. Then 1369 and Phinista. Pavement just ratified their first union contract and won pay raises, PTO & other protections.
They told us we were ruining the cafe bc of all the bad press they would get. When I said ppl actually go out of their way to patronize unionized shops and used an example of how when I first moved to Boston I got my first coffee from pavement bc of @UnitedPavement…
Guess I'll be getting my coffee and sandwiches from @UnitedPavement instead of Phinista. x.com/tiffanyyy_wang…
Just wanted to let y’all know that we as employees at Phinista are pulling our petition to unionize. Our employer refused to voluntarily recognize and very quickly began using union busting tactics to crush morale for a union that had ONE HUNDRED PERCENT SUPPORT. 🧵
0 days without Wonderwall playing on the picket line…
Come by today!!!
Meet our union today! Want to chat? We are on the Com Lawn anytime between 9am and 5pm, with a special gathering from 1-2pm!
