Representing Working Men and Woman Who are Striving for a Better Way of Life

Over the last 200 years, trade unionists have been jailed & even killed fighting for economic justice. But because of them, we have decent wages for millions, the 8-hour workday and the end of child labor. This Labor Day, let's continue the fight for an economy that works for all of us, not just the 1%.

"Nearly half of Americans (47%) want labor unions in the U.S. to have more influence than they do today, a record high in the past quarter century." bit.ly/3SQqlVQ

Labor Day exists because workers organized, stood together and fought for better. Every right we have on the job was won by working people who refused to settle for less. We honor them by carrying that fight forward.

Blanket data center moratoriums take power away from local communities and threaten investment in our energy infrastructure and good union jobs. bit.ly/4gDBYZf

Replying to @Edison_Electric
@Edison_Electric recently featured a story ‘Powering America: Profiles of America’s Lineworkers’.

Shannon is a Lead Lineman and president of #IBEWLocal396  Read about Shannon’s journey and passion for the trade here: electricperspectives.com/pow…
