This is notable because not only is SEIU calling for a ceasefire, they also call for "a sustained end to decades of occupation, blockades and lack of freedom endured by the Palestinian people."
Wherever violence, fear & hatred thrive, working people cannot.
We call for an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages & delivery of life-saving supplies to the people of Gaza.
This call for peace is rooted in the pain that SEIU members are feeling, from the Jewish member concerned for her son’s safety in Tel Aviv, to the Muslim member who immigrated to this country from the Middle East to escape war, to SEIU healthcare workers who see themselves in the healthcare workers in Gaza who have been killed trying to save lives.

Baby eczema is no joke! Our toddler had mild eczema when she was a baby and it turned into full body impetigo. We had spoken to numerous doctors who provided mixed advice. Check out our story in @Healthline healthline.com/health-news/e…

All to say, mutal aid that is strategic when a) it emphasizes a perspective for the State to address the need, b) actively organizes people receiving support toward a larger demand, and c) people experience solidarity through the campaign and decide to join DSA.

"DSA's #PROAct week of phone banking is paying off! In @theintercept @RyanGrim reports the hundreds of messages we left have moved @SenAngusKing toward supporting the PRO Act.
We’re winning but face big obstacles, so we need big people power! Sign up bit.ly/proactphonebank
The office of Angus King, one of 5 PRO Act holdouts, has been “inundated” with phone calls both for and against the PRO Act, labor v capital. A coalition of unions and DSA is hopeful he’s being swayed their way. Story here: interc.pt/326DpIH

We just won our second contract! Ahead of negotiations, we went line by line of our first contract, developed new proposals, and voted on priorities. By focusing on union democracy, we had 100% participation and a 100% yes. Today, we have a stronger union and stronger contract.

"The simple fact that freelancers have agreed to these terms is not evidence that they are happy with the system, it’s proof that they feel they have no recourse." (If you freelance for McGraw Hill, @paythewriter can help — DM or email [email protected].) inthesetimes.com/article/mcg…
