Some news from Labor Notes— a lawsuit by two rank and file members filed in federal court against @UFCW alleging LMRDA violations— saying the delegate system of representation diminishes rank and file voting power in the union. Press conference ongoing.

With more than 50,000 members, UFCW 3000 is the largest local in the million-member UFCW International. It’s also the heart of a plot to revolutionize one of the biggest unions in the country—and the labor movement itself. inthesetimes.com/article/revolt…
We are in a fight over the soul of UFCW. Members taking back their union is the only path forward.

BREAKING: 4,300 autoworkers at Volkswagen in Chattanooga are forming a union and seeking to join @UAW
UFCW members will gather at Labor Notes and lay out a vision for the future of reform. Our name. Our direction. Our top issues. See you all soon.
In ~2 years this man went from being attacked by the Admin Caucus for being a dissident to winning a transformational election, winning standard setting contracts, forcing a sitting president to walk our picket lines & embarked on the largest drive of our unions history Amazing
For the past two and a half years, Starbucks workers have been leading the way. They’ve shown us the power of forming a union, the power of the strike, and have inspired the whole working class. Congratulations on this major breakthrough. The UAW has got your back.

Huge News! Workers at distribution company Catapult NW have just ratified their first contract! Workers won their union more than a year ago, and have been taking action to win this contract since.
BREAKING: The FTC has sued to block the $25 billion merger between Kroger and Albertsons
In case anyone forgot, STRIKES WORK! After months of negotiations, our movement for a #betterCSU has paid off! Our members have won a Tentative Agreement with @calstate that includes raising the floor for our most vulnerable faculty, safer workplaces & expanded parental leave.#1u
These large companies are saying publicly that this merger will decrease prices, but our investigation uncovered internal communications where executives admit that prices will not go down. We will continue fighting for affordability and choice. 2/2
#BREAKING: Today I filed a lawsuit to block the proposed merger between Kroger and Albertsons, two supermarket chains that own Fred Meyer, QFC, and Safeway. Monopolies increase prices and reduce choices. The price of groceries is already too high. 1/2
📢 Have you heard about NLRB’s new framework for forming a union? We’re breaking down the Cemex decision in a short video, so you can learn your labor rights:
BREAKING: Our Red Cup Rebellion, where over 5,000 Starbucks workers went on strike, has already landed a major victory - the ability for workers to PAUSE MOBILE ORDERS during especially busy rushes. There’s no doubt this is a response to our organizing. 🧵/

For centuries, the Southern economy has been a rigged game—a scheme designed to enrich a select few at the expense of the many. At Daimler Truck, Volkswagen and Mercedes, we’re building a new economic model in the South.
While hundreds of @UFCW workers are actually out on strike UFCW is spending time in fancy hotels talking about strikes.
