Workers make America run, and it’s time for pro-worker candidates who will work with us. The #GreedyCEOs who get rich off dividing us would love for us to stay home. TODAY, GOTV for leaders who want to build a future where our families are safe, our wages cover expenses, and our voices are respected. Make a plan: seiu.co/WorkersVote

The @SBWorkersUnited boycott isn’t just about @Starbucks. It’s about a broken system where billionaires and CEOs keep getting richer while the politicians they bankroll gut our wages, healthcare, and rights. Baristas are fighting for a fair contract and for a more just society! #NoContractNoCoffee

WATCH @SEIUPres express how attacks on immigrant workers will make our nation’s care crisis even worse! 3 in 10 home care workers are immigrants. This is a moment for action. We’re calling on Congress to create a pathway to citizenship for longtime residents like our TPS union siblings!

ICYMI, our International President April Verrett met with Pope Leo XIV to celebrate our humanity and speak about how working people can flex collective power to win #MoneyPowerRespect!
Still taking this moment in. To sit with the Holy Father and hear him speak about the dignity and worth of workers, and our collective responsibility to fight for justice, was powerful. But hearing those words in an accent that sounds like home? I’ll carry that with me forever.

ICYMI, this past weekend marked National Security Officer Appreciation Week. Taking a #StandForSecurity isn’t about free pizza or cheap giveaways. Security officers need more than gestures—they need a fair union contract, living wages, and tools and training to keep our communities safe. Real appreciation starts with real action.

Have you considered organizing a union to win a contract that includes more vacation days, paid holidays, personal time, and even comp time?? Just saying, #YouMightNeedAUnion! 🤔

1/5 Drivers, workers and allies rally at the NJ State House in Trenton to say NO to Waymo’s expansion and YES to union rights for app-based rideshare drivers. Human drivers deserve a voice in their future. #WorkersBeforeWaymo #DriversDemandUnionRights #UnionRights

Anyone else notice that Pres. Trump’s #LaborDay video didn’t feature ANY working people?? Labor Day is supposed to be about workers. Just goes to show you the Trump admin cares more about self-aggrandizement than it does workers who keep America running.

Damn right I'm a union leader, and proud of it too. For almost 20 years, I’ve been fighting for better wages, better healthcare and safer working conditions for the firefighters and first responders that are keeping our communities safe. Ryan Mackenzie's never gotten his hands dirty a day in his life — unless it was counting corporate cash and being Trump's lapdog.
Audio of Rep. Ryan Mackenzie attacking Bob Brooks for being a union leader claiming the Brooks is beholden to unions and want to slant things in their direction.

We’re proud to join workers to #BoycottStarbucks until baristas win a fair union contract. We’re fed up with unchecked corporate greed and wealthy executives ignoring their workers. Let’s show Starbucks that working people stand together ➡️ BoycottStarbucks.net

Everyone will need care at some point in their lives. Home care workers allow families to keep their jobs while their parents/grandparents and loved ones with disabilities are able to get the care they need right at home. When Republicans gutted Medicaid & home care, they attacked working families.

When workers take on one of the biggest corporations in the world, they shouldn't have to do it alone. We’re fed up with unchecked corporate greed and wealthy executives ignoring their workers and breaking labor laws more than any other company in modern U.S. history. We’re proud to join workers to #BoycottStarbucks until baristas win a fair union contract. Join us and stand with union baristas – take the pledge and let’s show Starbucks that working people stand with baristas until they win. ➡️ BoycottStarbucks.net

Republicans trying to hang onto crucial swing seats here in Pennsylvania say they’re still struggling to break through to voters on their signature economic achievement: the One Big Beautiful Bill’s tax cuts. @LauraEWeiss16 has more from the campaign trail in the commonwealth: punchbowl.news/article/vault…

When corporate execs try to pit better working conditions against better pay but working people unionize to get both! 🤣🤣🤣 #UnionsForAll

When fast-food workers walked off the job in 2012, it was described as “the biggest wave of job actions in the history of America’s fast-food industry.” Over the course of the nearly 15 years that has followed, the Fight for $15 and a Union movement spread from coast to coast, uniting working people across industries to join the demand for #MoneyPowerRespect. Learn more: seiu.co/FF15Movement 👏🏼👏🏾👏🏿
NEW report from @ColumbiaIGP: Lessons Learned from the Fight for $15 and a Union movement. Read it to understand what the movement achieved (including more than $150 billion in raises for 26 million workers) and the lessons we can learn from it: igp.sipa.columbia.edu/sites/… By IGP Carnegie Distinguished Fellow @marykayhenry and her co-author Dylan Baca.

Got vested into the pension that was guaranteed through a union contract, plus maxed out the 401k contribution employer match benefit instead of buying movie tickets to rewatch Odyssey for the third time…

I know how hard it is out there. Trust me. I've been through the ringer. We sure could use more people in Congress who actually come from the working class.

True that, but just flagging that 35,000 career staff and student assistants at the California State University across 22 campuses joined together in @CSUEU and won a union contract that includes affordable parking as part of their benefits package. #UnionsForAll makes it easier for us to live in our communities and afford to choose the careers we love!
Nobody talks about how "parking" used to cost quarters. Now it's $8/hour, requires an app, won't take cash, and charges you a $2 "convenience fee" to pay digitally. You're paying a tech tax to leave your car in a painted rectangle. Public space has been monetized into oblivion.
