We can have better.
We can have universal healthcare.
We can have tuition-free college.
We can have affordable housing.
We can have livable wages.
We can have UNIONS FOR ALL.
But none of this happens unless we stand together in unions. Collective power is how we win a system that works for all of us—not just the wealthy few.

If the minimum wage had actually kept up with worker productivity, folks would be earning over $26 an hour—more than $50,000 a year.

The survival of programs that protect our health and safety, that serve our seniors and veterans and people with disabilities, that provide housing and educational opportunities for low and middle-income families-- are all at risk.

A lot of us start contributing to Social Security as teenagers at our first jobs.
That money should be there for us when it’s time to collect.

“Somebody that makes $170 million pays the same $10,000 into Social Security as a family of four that made $170,000”
Former SSA Commissioner @MartinOMalley is totally correct, it’s time to scrap the cap!

Don’t know about y’all, but I think health care shouldn't be expensive.
The Big Ugly Bill cut health care access for 17 million Americans by slashing Medicaid funding.
It's about damn time Congress prioritizes people over profit!
