The NY State Dept of Labor is about to launch a major upgrade to unemployment services that will affect everyone currently collecting unemployment and new filers. It’s the largest unemployment insurance system overhaul in US history. nycclc.org/news/union-s...

Today in NYC #LaborHistory: Twelve New York City firefighters die fighting a blaze in midtown Manhattan. Until the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attack, the fire on East 23nd Street claimed more firefighters’ lives than any other disaster in the city. - October 17, 1966

This economy is broken for working people. The cost of everything is skyrocketing. Billionaires and CEOs are making record pay and bonuses while workers struggle to make ends meet. Workers make this country run. It shouldn’t be this hard to stay afloat.

Shit’s too expensive, and Donald Trump and his allies don’t have a plan to get some relief for working people. They won’t even take responsibility for it.

The film and television industry is one of America’s greatest exports. Congress must act to keep good union jobs here at home. America’s unions urge Congress to pass the Motion Picture, Television, and Entertainment Revitalization Act. https://bit.ly/4yki76S

Working people are working harder than ever, yet our paychecks are stuck and CEOs are bringing home record pay and bonuses. This election season, let’s elect candidates who will help make this economy work for all of us, not just the billionaire bosses. Betterinaunion.org

22 days until Election Day. Vote like your health care depends on it. Vote like your job depends on it. Vote like your Social Security depends on it. Vote like your savings depends on it. Because they do. Make your plan to vote:

Good morning from the Tradeswomen Build Nations banner parade! Tradeswomen lead the way in our labor movement, and in Houston this weekend, we’re building incredible solidarity and worker power. Union women get shit done! ✊

It’s worrying that safety researchers at OpenAI were fired last week. Tech workers should be able to report concerns without fear of retaliation. Big Tech CEOs can’t regulate themselves. That’s why we need whistleblower protections and a real voice for tech workers.

8% of households are going hungry. 16% of adults can’t pay all their bills in full. 26% skipped medical care due to costs. ALL while billionaires rake in record pay and bonuses. This economy isn’t working for us. Let’s vote to change that. https://betterinaunion.org/

Working people are not asking for luxury. We want some breathing room so we can live instead of barely making ends meet. This November, we’re going to elect candidates who will create an economy that works for all of us, not just billionaires. Join us: betterinaunion.org

On World Day for Decent Work, America’s unions are committed to fighting for working people around the world to make sure they have strong workplaces with union contracts, dignity, and respect. Together with @ituc.bsky.social, let’s create a global economy that works for working people!

Working people should not have to accept “bad things” from AI that could impact our lives. We can’t let Big Tech billionaires regulate themselves. That’s how we got into this mess. We need real AI guardrails to protect our jobs and rights.

Working families nationwide are all saying the same thing: Shit’s too expensive. Groceries, rent, utilities, gas - everything is skyrocketing. This economy is broken. This November, let’s send pro-worker candidates to Congress and create an economy that works for all of us!

NYC is a union town and I will always fight alongside workers for better wages, safety and job protections. LFG 💪💪💪
