What to do about companies that pay their workers so little they have to rely on public assistance? @adamshah.bsky.social of @jwj.org proposes a "Bad Business Fee," with community members deciding how to spend the revenue.

Despite benefiting from Trump’s tax cuts, many wealthy corporations continue to pay their workers poverty wages, writes @jwj.org ’s Adam Shah.
Fortunately, local governments have a way to hold those corporations accountable — Bad Business Fees.
Noem's ICE has violated over 200 court orders in the last two months.
This lack of compliance is unprecedented and dangerous.
The courts are forcing DHS to comply because Noem thinks she only has to follow the rulings "when they apply."
Noem is not above the law.
It appears that this legend owns a little bookstore — and you can order books from him instead of Bezos. Link in next post.
Nurses, teachers, vets, caregivers, small biz owners, & countless other community leaders are on the frontlines in the fight for democracy, safety, and community. It's time for Congress to step up alongside working people. Tell your Senator, VOTE NO on ICE funding: www.jwj.org/nomoney4ice
Target is MN's leading corporate citizen. The company has been silent–even after 2 employees were assaulted & kidnapped while at work. Last Friday faith leaders staged a sit in at Target HQ, and won a meeting with the Target CEO today.Tell Target: ICE OUT! (4/4) actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...
Leading up to a statewide action calling for no work, no school, no shopping, ICE Out MN will spotlight corporate complicity in the violation of constitutional and human rights. They need your help to spread the word. First up, Target: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell... (3/4)
His legacy lives in the faith, labor, and community groups of ICE Out MN who are demanding ICE end their campaign of violence and leave Minnesota. Stand with them in Dr. King’s honor: www.iceoutnowmn.com (2/4)
As celebrations to honor the legacy of #MLK kick off today, it’s all eyes on Minnesota. Dr. King promoted solidarity amongst working people because he knew that freedom, safety, and a healthy democracy were only attainable when we confronted the profiteers of oppression, violence, and bigotry.

Next Wednesday at 1 PM: Learn from state-level worker-advocates how they successfully won #just-cause protections in their industry ✊

Come protest federal worker rights being stripped THIS Wednesday at noon in DC. It's worth taking an hour of PTO to stand up to illegal actions & be in solidarity with federal workers across the government. Bit.ly/PAWArally #supportfederalworkers #savepublicservices

When they try to silence one of us, we stand united. David Huerta’s courage reminds us that democracy only survives when we refuse to back down. #JusticeForDavid
No worker deserves to be fired for speaking up. Not Starbucks baristas organizing for a fair contract, immigrant workers fighting wage theft, Amazon warehouse workers demanding safety, or federal workers protecting our civil rights. Stand with the #FairHousingThree: http://www.jwj.org/fh3
"It is clearer than ever that democracy is on life support, begging to be revived, reimagined, and released from the grasps of profiteers and political theater. Working people are answering the call for revival, but sustaining this energy for justice requires all of us." Read more 👀👇
We can't depend on empty promises to be fulfilled while working people hang in the balance. That's why we've relaunched the Worker Solidarity Fund. Learn more (and give a little if you've got a little) at www.thesolidarityhub.org/wsf.

UAW Local 42 will be holding a strike vote on Oct. 28 & 29. Jobs with Justice sends our solidarity and strength to Chattanooga auto workers as they hold the line! ✊✊
Volkswagen can come to the table with autoworkers in Chattanooga and give them the dignity, wages, and safety they deserve. We’ve seen them do it with international auto workers. It shouldn’t be different for workers in Chattanooga, TN. Avoid a strike and meet the reasonable demands, VW!!
It’s time for a fair contract NOW!
Jobs with Justice stands in unwavering solidarity with Volkswagen auto workers in Chattanooga as they prepare to cast their ballots on whether to strike next week.
