Congratulations to the members of @UFCW Local 152 at Cape Regional Physicians Associates on winning a new contract! Across-the-board raises, better health care and stronger paid leave protections: another reminder that when workers bargain together, they win.

Congratulations to our new @REIunion siblings in San Diego!
In the face of relentless union-busting, REI workers are building more power in their fight for a fair contract. Solidarity with the workers - America’s unions have your backs!
UFCW retweeted
After years of union-busting and no fair contract, 70,000+ @REI members and counting have already pledged to boycott the REI Anniversary Sale (May 15–25). Stand with @reiunion. Don’t shop the sale!

Better pay, benefit protections and workplace safety protections — it’s #BetterInAUnion! reuters.com/business/world-a…

The biggest meatpacking company on Earth is being rocked by a massive strike.
99% of the workers at this JBS plant voted to walk off the job.
Now nearly 4,000 workers with @UFCW are fighting for better, safer jobs.

These days, rent can be set by algorithms that use your data to charge the highest price they think you can bear.
The same goes for groceries – where they switch prices based on things like time of day or phone browsing history.
We will work to protect New Jerseys working families by limiting this kind of for-profit surveillance by Big Tech.

Behind every meal are workers who make it possible, and they deserve protection, not uncertainty. These workers rely on Temporary Protected Status to legally work and live in the United States.
Ending TPS hurts workers who keep our food supply strong and are the backbone of our grocery stores, warehouses, and meatpacking plants. It’s time to restore TPS now and support the workers who keep America fed.

I just released my AI for America roadmap, and it boils down to this: The companies driving and profiting the most from AI need to do their part to strengthen our workforce, modernize our energy infrastructure, and ensure safety.

When workers vote to form a union, they should have a seat at the bargaining table. But too often, companies stall the process, leaving workers without a voice. The Faster Labor Contracts Act fixes that. Join me, the @Teamsters, and @reppetestauber live at 2 pm to introduce the bill: youtube.com/watch?v=Ppe_LGdu…

Join AFL-CIO President @LizShuler on Wednesday at 11 a.m. for our annual State of the Unions, where she’ll share how the labor movement is fighting for workers across the country and standing up to billionaires, greedy corporate CEOs and anti-worker politicians.

Working families are stressed about rising grocery prices. While our neighbors struggle, corporate grocery chains are feeding customer data into algorithms to decide who can be charged more.
I introduced the Stop Price Gouging in Grocery Stores Act to put an end to this.

Huge congratulations to @UFCW and @RWDSU on bringing REI to the table to negotiate a collective bargaining agreement! I was proud to support their efforts by calling on REI execs to bargain in good faith, and I couldn’t be happier to see our union brothers and sisters secure this victory. ufcw.org/press-releases/ufcw…

At 16, I got my first job at Albertsons and proudly joined UFCW. I’ve seen firsthand how unions open doors to opportunity, but it's clear Congress isn’t doing enough to support our union family.
As a member of the Labor Caucus, I’m working to advance the policies labor leaders call for, like the Protect America’s Workforce Act and the PRO Act. It’s time to put Oregon workers first.

It's unacceptable that 3,000 grocery workers in Minnesota have been without a union contract for 3 months.
It's time for the CEOs of Cub Foods, Knowlan's & Haug's to end their outrageous corporate greed, negotiate in good faith with the UFCW & treat their workers with respect.

SNAP is our nation’s first line of defense against hunger and strengthens communities by reducing poverty, improving health and learning outcomes, supporting a productive workforce, and more.
We urge elected officials to stand with workers and strengthen–not cut–SNAP benefits.
