The blue wave is union-made. Working people voted in massive numbers to take power back from the Trump admin and its billionaire allies, hold wealthy elites accountable, and build the economy we deserve. This is our country. Tonight, we took it back. aflcio.org/press/releases…

Union members across the country were more enthusiastic than ever to vote because some of our own were on the ballot. And with the AFL-CIO’s largest midterm mobilization ever, they WON!

It’s a new era in Congress - a union era.

newrepublic.com The New House Will Have Genuine Working-Class People. Will It Matter? Seventeen card-carrying union members who ran for Congress won. But can they nudge their party in a more labor-friendly direction?

America’s unions stand in solidarity with our Starbucks @SBWorkersUnited baristas in their fight for a fair contract, and continue to call on everyone to boycott stand-alone corporate Starbucks stores.

No contract? NO COFFEE!

The AFL-CIO mourns the passing of our sister and friend, Barbara Easterling, secretary-treasurer emeritus @CWAUnion and the first woman to serve as secretary-treasurer of the AFL-CIO. Her trailblazing career will continue to inspire generations of union members.

It is with deep sadness that we share news of the passing of Barbara J. Easterling, a labor pioneer for women’s labor rights.

How do we fix Washington, D.C.? We send someone to Congress who can (literally) build bridges.

Congratulations to our union brother @BPforCongress on this major victory. When working people come together and fight for better, nothing can stop us.
