The Solidarity Campaign, @Kshama_SC, against the right-wing, big-business-backed Recall is well on pace to get the remaining signatures (will be independently pre-verified) needed for a November ballot. @RecallSawantNow, meet me @ @KCElections on Aug 2 to submit? #PutUpOrShutUp

Union electrician speaks about the daily fight for employers to respect workers. Access to bathrooms and breaks are about respect and dignity that every worker deserves. Living in the city you build is something every worker deserves.

Despite overwhelming support in public comments for @cmkshama's resolution to defend our Amazon Tax, not a single councilmember even seconded it. We've seen time & time again that we cannot rely on Dem Party politicians to fight for working people. #TaxAmazon
