At tonight's debate, Kamala Harris had nothing to say on ending the Gaza genocide. Nothing to say on Israel's murder of Ezgi Eygi & 200,000 Palestinians. Enough is enough. We need to build the vote for @drjillstein 's antiwar campaign & deny Harris a victory in Michigan.

The AFL-CIO leadership recently announced its endorsement of Strikebreaker Joe Biden, without any democratic discussion with its 12.4 million members. For millions of Americans who are struggling to make ends meet, this “historic” endorsement is a rotten sellout.

All workers win if UPS workers get $25/hr & a strong contract. Workers Strike Back firmly supports the fight for a NO vote. A strong labor movement is built through robust debate around real issues, not by telling workers who we can or cannot listen to.

Nobody has the right to tell our coworkers “Hey, I know better about your conditions than you do. Do what I say.” Groups like this don’t believe in workers figuring out this world for themselves. They see us as pieces for them to play with.

Last year, union membership declined to a record low – 10.1 percent. This might be surprising - unions are more popular than ever! 71% say they support labor unions, the highest level since 1965. So why is union membership still declining? How do we turn it around?

We need a mass mvmt to end racist policing — to put police under control of democratically-elected community boards with full power over department policy, hiring and firing. We demand an end to the violent “hotspot policing” that Dem politicians have embraced across the country.

"I've gotten pushback in my union. It's analogous to @TheDemocrats . They don't want to discuss some of the issues - transparency, accountability...the negotiations with WGA are happening behind closed doors...Unions are supposed to be run by us." - Ben Rosenblum, WGA writer

Passing @cmkshama 's bill would generate huge momentum for strong rent control & put a spotlight on Democrats in WA State, who have shamefully kept in place a statewide ban on rent control for decades. 29 states have similar bans. We need to overturn these bans everywhere.

Varun from @cmkshama office explains: while workers were buckling under 10% inflation, bosses made record profits last year. Capitalism has failed working people! Now that the economy is in crisis, they’re still trying to put it on the backs of workers w layoffs-we need socialism

Workers have watched as the wealth of the billionaire class skyrockets at our expense. We need unions to defend ourselves, because the bosses won’t be happy until we are working day and night for next to nothing. So what kind of unions do workers need?

This flows directly from Bernie’s decision to stay within the Democratic Party, which fought viciously against him & his agenda in his runs for President. Biden has carried out huge attacks on workers. Still @BernieSanders , @AOC & the Squad are doing backflips to cover for him.

“UPS made profits of $13 billion last year alone on top of handing $10B to stockholders while driving down workers’ living standards for decades. This contract fight is the chance to make up for the losses of the past 20+ years. We can make huge gains if we continue the struggle”
