Our union in Washington is working on the smoke rules. We expect pushback from industry who insists on having workers exposed to every hazardous condition. We deserve not only good rules to keep us alive but also compensation for having to work in those conditions

Despite the rain, PCC workers and community allies like @FaithActionWA turned out send a clear message to management, nothing less than a fair contract that gives workers a fair wage!

#MoralMonday is not a moment, it’s a movement. The same people in TN & across the South who block gun laws also block healthcare, living wages & voting rights. We won’t accept this policy violence anymore. We must stand together. If there are enough of us, they can’t stop us.
Washington Poor People's Campaign retweeted
We’re winning. Today you focused on the issues, called out policy murder & showed them this religious, moral, advocate, impacted people coalition. They saw us & said ‘ain’t no way in heaven we’re going to do this today.’ Now we know the lesson: stay here!

In the undenied climate crisis we all are facing, we must not forget that people detained by ICE are not only facing inhumane detention conditions at NWDC, they also face pollution and fires while located at the Port of Tacoma.

Kroger wants to spend $25 billion to buy its rival Albertsons but it can't even pay its own employees correctly. Maybe you should get that sorted out before adding a few hundred thousand additional workers to your payroll? #StopTheMerger🚫

Thanks to all the workers, unions, community activists and members, and customers to turned out for our actions last week (and who will turn out soon for more). We are going to #StoptheMerger #NoGroceryMerger.

No one is safe under @icegov custody! Everyone must be released, all detention centers must be shut down, ICE should pay for all the harm and violence inflected in our communities and the entire agency must be abolished!

Hopefully the St. Louis supermarket chain asks Haggen what happened to them when they bought divested stores… oh wait! They can’t, because Haggen went bankrupt & then was sold to Albertsons, the very same chain that sold them the stores. 🤔🤔 kmov.com/2023/04/06/local-gr…
