See you in front of the Federal Courthouse, 700 Stewart St. at 10 am this Saturday, May 6 to defend the right to strike! Endorsed by 18 local labor organizations, we need to fight now before the Supreme Court rules on the Glacier NW v. Teamsters 174 case.
Defend the right to strike rally: May 6th 10am in front of the federal courthouse, 700 Stewart st! We need to act now to protect workers’ basic rights before the Supreme Court rules on the Glacier NW v. Teamsters 174 case!
Eight days to get your ballots in! There’s only one item; vote YES on I-135! @houseRneighbors
You’ve seen the signs, make sure you vote YES on I-135 and turn in your ballot by February 14th! @houseRneighbors
David Spaner joins us this Friday for an evening of Canadian labor history. See you Sept. 30, at 7PM at the Elliott Bay Book Company!
Also, if we’re talking about “self interest” how about calling attention to the presence of anti-worker right wing candidates like @bruceforseattle co-opting this moment for political gain?
We ratified our first contract last night! We still have lots to fight for, but we’re proud to have gotten this far.
Thrilled to announce that we have reached final text of a tentative agreement with Elliott Bay on our first contract! We will be holding a ratification vote later this week. Thank you to our community for helping us reach this important milestone 💖
Proud to stand with rank-and-file union members & workers today with @Kshama_SC! Looking forward to putting in the work to defend our socialist city council member who has had our backs since day 1
When we stand up and fight for our comrades, we win! We are thrilled to announce that Elliott Bay has agreed to reinstate our wrongfully terminated co-worker Graham Shutt, who will rejoin the bookstore on Tuesday.
Our comrade deserves his job back, and now we’re making our struggle public in the hopes that Elliott Bay will do the right thing. Union booksellers will be wearing our “Bring Back Graham” buttons until he’s working alongside us again. Stay tuned!
Last May, shortly after we unionized, @ElliottBayBooks unjustly fired our beloved and longtime co-worker Graham Shutt in the midst of the pandemic, without evidence or any semblance of just cause. 1/
