Another insult and ugly display of greed to 33,000 of us who worked hard until the very end to make @ToysRUs the store everyone loved.
We asked the owners for $75 million – they coughed up $20 million, and they keep stuffing their own overflowing pockets. nypost.com/2019/01/24/former…

So hard going through the airport today. I looked into the eyes of our workers who deserve better. A TSA officer said: "Don't stop fighting. Keep it up." I broke down & felt the weight of the responsibility on me. I will never become numb to the human impact. We must end this.

You can't put students first if you put teachers last.

The winds are changing in unprecedented ways thanks to the organizing that former Toys R Us employees started. This campaign is bigger than any single employer. Our work is setting new standards that will ripple through the industry for decades to come.

But more than this, #FairWorkweekPHL was a broad based justice campaign that merged so many movements together. And I’m eternally grateful for the true heroes - ordinary Philadelphians who marched, testified and believed a better Philly was possible. You made this happen.
All workers deserve dignity, respect, and access to paid time off. Period.

Retailers seem to think there are only two options to offset wage increases: raise prices for consumers, or somehow “increase worker efficiency”. We have a third idea - reduce executive pay and bonuses!

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏽 Love it! We know a #FairWorkWeek is good for health and well-being. (Case in point: research shows that high stress levels and poor mental health outcomes are linked to unstable work hours and income)
