Worker wins just keep rolling in 🔥

From March 2023 to March 2024, private sector union workers’ wages rose by 6.3% – the largest increase in over two decades.

Nonunion workers’ wages, meanwhile, rose just 4.1%, barely keeping up with inflation.

That’s the union difference!

Employees should never be afraid of retaliation and should be free to report unsafe working conditions. This is the power of a union. cbsnews.com/news/dangerous…

Behind every worker's story is strength, solidarity, and resilience. Proud to share a glimpse of the labor movement in Texas and show some of our work last month.

It’s no coincidence that our 2024 Women’s Summit had record-breaking attendance, with nearly 200 union sisters joining together from across the state.

With Liz Shuler at the helm of the AFL-CIO ✊, working women are at the forefront of the fight for economic and racial justice!

'The seven days between Friday, April 19, and Thursday, April 25, saw a succession of worker victories that was almost breathtaking in its scope.'

“Our working conditions are our animals’ living conditions; their living conditions are our working conditions. An improvement in one is an improvement in the other.”

Ahead of Austin Pets Allied Workers (APAW)’s vote tomorrow, hear from the workers on why they’re unionizing:

On Workers Memorial Day, we are reminded that Texas is one of the most dangerous states for workers, accounting for 10.5% of the nation’s worker deaths.

That’s 578 workers who didn’t return home.

Today & every day, we mourn these lives lost and commit to building a safer Texas.
