There is nothing good for America in keeping millions of people immiserated in debt for the alleged crime of getting the higher education they were told they needed to get a job with a living wage.

One of our resolutions #19 (#1m1v & State Fed Autonomy) appeared on the #AFLCIOConv agenda today. We put forward a "point of order," but the Chair would not allow it to be considered. This fight isn't over. We will always fight for Union Democracy!

My baby is in third grade. She lugs a binder of Pokemon cards to school to swap them on the playground at recess. Her socks are always mismatched & she wears a dinosaur hoodie. She's just started making her own lunches for school every morning (she's very proud),

NEW: REI continues its union-busting tactics at its NYC store.
"The only guarantee in any collective bargaining process is that there are no guarantees."

Out of 9 justices, 3 were appointed by a man who tried to overthrow the US government (& elected via minority).
Those 3 will decide whether the US will legalize forcing people to give birth against their will.
Legitimacy requires consent of the governed. They are dismantling it
