“No justice? No books!” Happening now until 4:30, @bnhadleyunion @ufcw1459 walked out and are picketing for more staffing.
Respect the digital and print picket line! Don't read the Washington Post today.
The Berkshire Visiting Nurse Association @MassNurses deserve a wage step scale and a fair contract NOW! Footage from yesterday's picket at Berkshire Medical Center in Pittsfield.

"We think it's vitally important for the labor movement to play a role in what's going on, and we think United States government is an integral player in what's going on in the Middle East... Our basic position was to call for immediate ceasefire to just stop the violence."

BREAKING: House passes legislation guaranteeing 7 days of paid sick leave as part of a mandated rail labor agreement. Vote was 221-207. All Democrats backed the measure; all Republicans opposed it except 3. The Senate is expected to vote on the rail labor contract tomorrow.
Time for politicians to “put up or shut up”! #nurses #BlackLivesMatter #1u @MassNurses @LaborforSPayer @BDSAHealthcare @WWmalf @LCIPcommittee @BDSA_Labor @LaborBoston @massaflcio peoplesworld.org/article/pro-la…
No worker in America should have to choose between their health and a paycheck. I will not vote in favor of any rail agreement that comes to the House floor without adequate sick days and the support of rail workers.
👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾
This railroad worker clearly & powerfully explains why workers need to have each other's backs, ahead of a potential strike: "We're all part of the working people that make society run.... Without us, nothing could happen. When one of us in under attack, we're all under attack."
Today, I submitted an amendment to the House Committee on Rules to add 7 paid sick days to the rail workers contract. Just now, we got an email from the Speaker saying that tomorrow we'll be voting to add 7 paid sick days. I'm always fighting in solidarity with the workers.
