#HakeemJeffries has passed the 7 hr mark. He has discussed how #unions & #CollectiveBargaining shaped his own life & reiterated #Democrats’ commitment to unions.
The #OneBigBeautifulBill act harms working Americans in many ways, just one of which is #unlawful #fees on Justice & Unions – it imposes a $350 fee on federal employees to file appeals w/the #MSPB, & charges unions for official time—despite being legally mandated.

I'm a CUPE member, not BCGEU, but goddamn this opening offer is low. two options for wage raises this year, both under 1%. we're back to the days of Christy Clark and Gordon Campbell in public sector bargaining, I see.

"a new ruling found a move by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem likely violated due process in her bid to crush collective bargaining at the Transportation Security Administration.
"Noem had issued a “determination” intended to bar transportation security officers from engaging in #CollectiveBargaining."

If you ever hear that the #Nazis were #socialists from some faschy chud, tell them that on #ThisDayInHistory in 1933, Nazi Germany banned #unions and #CollectiveBargaining, increased the maximum working hours to 72 per week, and began conscripting citizens for #ForcedLabour.

Chicago Teachers Union reached a tentative agreement with Chicago Public Schools that reaffirms sanctuary school protections, protects the ability to teach Black history, gives veteran teachers a raise, & more.

Let's hope the people that voted for 47 now remember again that GOPRepublicans DON'T support #CollectiveBargaining and #Unions. Law enforcement votes GOPR all the time.
Trump put out an executive order (EO) to take away the collective bargaining (union) rights of federal employees today, claiming such rights counter “national security requirements and considerations.”
Whoa, yesterday, #Trump illegally stripped #CollectiveBargaining rights from hundreds of thousands of #FederalWorkers in 18 different departments across multiple #FederalAgencies.
The admin stated that “Certain Federal unions have declared *#war* on President Trump’s agenda.”
Is he going to use #wartime powers against #union members now?

And speaking of unionization, Utah’s Republican-controlled state legislature recently passed a bill that “will prohibit government entities from negotiating contracts with unions representing public employees — including teachers (and) firefighters.”
It was signed into law by the Republican governor and will go into effect July 1.
