The Largest Nurses Strike in New York City History Just Kicked Off Nearly 15,000 healthcare workers across New York City are on the picket lines demanding safe staffing and workplace protections.

"...No nurse should be asked to accept less pay, fewer benefits, or less dignity for doing lifesaving work. Our nurses have kept this city alive through its hardest moments. Their value is not negotiable.” —New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani

I stand with the @aflcio.org, AFGE, @nffe.bsky.social, @seiu.org, & NNOC/NNU.

An attack on one of us, is an attack on all. We will not back down. 

#UnionStrong [2/2]

The White House in a stormy scene with a sign in front saying, "WE WILL NOT BACK DOWN - AFGE LOCAL 17".

The VA has terminated all union contracts—including ours—without warning. This attack on workers' rights is about silencing dissent, not national security. We’re fighting back. Stay strong. Stay united. #UnionStrong #AFGE #LOCAL17

Lewelyn had been detained by ICE since February, despite the fact that she is a legal permanent resident.

Her community and her brothers and sisters in labor rallied around her, and SHE GOT OUT!

New Trump Policy Would Eliminate Union Rights For A Million Workers The administration is trying to use a national security exemption to eliminate union rights for hundreds of thousands of workers.

🚨 THIS IS A RED ALERT FOR ALL AMERICAN WORKERS.

If you think this administration will stop at eliminating unions for federal workers, you need to get your head examined.

These billionaires are coming for our right to organize as workers.

ALL of us.

Screenshot of the AFL-CIO's statement condemning the Trump administration's executive order stripping collective bargaining and union rights from workers across the federal government.

Stripping collective bargaining and union rights from workers across the federal government is the very definition of union busting — and a blatant attempt to silence us.

We will fight this outrageous attack on our members with every fiber of our collective being.

SEIU members showed up strong at the Oregon Capitol! 💜 We shared our stories, pushed for safer workplaces & better career paths. When we speak out together, lawmakers listen. #UnionStrong

Every step of your journey matters, and we're glad BlueArk can play a small part in keeping it alive! 🚀💙 Keep fighting the good fight!

Farm work is among the most dangerous jobs. Without a union contract, workers can be afraid to speak up about safety and may not receive proper care if injured. Farm workers urgently need the protections of a union contract. Your gift can help. ufw.org/accidents2023
