Lord is that it 🥴 Listen… if you have to explain it to people then it doesn’t work. Also why?

As climate change accelerates and heat-related illnesses rise, the Trump administration is putting workers’ lives at risk to pad corporate profits. Weakening OSHA enforcement is unacceptable. It’s time to deliver for working people.

This is how I run in my dreams

Unacceptable

The state has stripped away basic protections for workers and we to not have enough TOSHA inspectors.

Austin’s Surge of New Housing Construction Drove Down Rents After decades of explosive growth, Austin, Texas, in the 2010s was a victim of its own success. Lured by high-tech jobs and the city’s hip reputation, too many people were competing for too few homes....

Building more housing lowers rents

Let’s not forget that the state of TN has over the years stripped away worker rights. They preempted us on local hire, mandatory heat breaks, mandatory written contacts with all subcontractors, etc. Last session a bill passed that if any company had a CBA they could not receive state funds.

1 dead following incident at East Nashville work site Authorities are investigating what led to a deadly incident Wednesday morning at a work site in East Nashville.

Nashville is one of the most dangerous cities to work in construction in the South.

This is why the Contract and Compliance Board can not fail. This is also why I have been so damn frustrated.

BIG NEWS! The little libraries on Linbar and Nolensville across from the zoo have been replaced and restocked. Go check them out while you catch the 52 🚌🚏Shoutout to Juan w/ La Brigada De Oro, for volunteering to put them together and members donating books!

I’m at Red Lobster 🦞 Does this mean I should run for At-Large 😂👀

Red Lobster: Fuck It, We Ball

Some Marines graduate without their parents' presence amid ICE fears News that ICE would be stationed outside Marine Corps graduation events upended family plans, elicited national reaction and drew out protesters, including Marine veterans.

“They were going to come. It was going to be a big thing. We were going to go to the beach right after. All those plans had to go out the window because they said ICE would be here."

Happy opening day! 💙⚾️

Maybe they don’t care about all crime 🤷🏻‍♀️

Just going to leave this here…

can you imagine working 5 weeks without pay and then they send this goon to breathe down your neck

ICE officers are taking DNA samples from protesters they've arrested People arrested while protesting ICE say federal agents took samples of their DNA. It's legal, but experts say the practice raises questions about what the government is doing with that genetic data.

This is not the first time this country does this to Latinos. They did it to my grandfather during the Bracero Program.

This is torture. Abolish ICE.

🚡 🤘🏼😤🤘🏼

Agree

People are dying in a war no one asked for. People starve while systems profit. People are being kidnapped by ICE. We don’t have time for respectability politics.
