a graphic for Womens’ History Month featuring a group photo of 1199SEIU lady leaders wearing purple and gold. They’re holding up union posters that say “We Are Labor,” “No Pension? More Tension,” and “MAY DAY.” The text on the bottom reads, “POWER LOOKS LIKE WOMEN IN SOLIDARITY.”
if u were to ask us what power looked like, we’d say it’s UNION WOMEN IN SOLIDARITY ✊💜😌
Happy Womens' History Month 💛 this March and always ✨
Happy Trans Day of Visibility! 💛 to our trans 1199ers, we love you, we see you, and we will protect you! ✊🏳️⚧️💜
Healthcare is the #1 worry in America.
Meanwhile, they’re talking about funding a $200B war no one asked for and paying for it with even more cuts to healthcare people are already struggling to afford.
Make it make sense.

Members from @hpae.bsky.social and @1199seiu.org at Phoenix Center for Rehabilitation and Pediatrics in New Jersey are long overdue for fair contracts—and management still won’t come to the table! 😤
Today, both unions united for a Button Day, demanding: Respect Us, Protect Us, BARGAIN WITH US. ✊
hey friends in labor,
daily reminder that you are more powerful than u think ☺️
with love & solidarity, 1199SEIU
In just the first six days of the Iran war, the U.S. spent at least $11.3 billion and the real economic cost will likely be far higher.
Paying for an unsanctioned war voters didn’t ask for is why you don’t have healthcare btw…
It’s not undocumented migrants.
It’s not unions.
It’s endless wars.

“I have a work permit in the United States, but that is not enough for ICE…just because you have brown skin, they are stopping you.”
This is the reality under this admin. ICE is being used as a weapon of terror: pushing parents out of work, destabilizing families, & traumatizing entire communities.

This is what accountability looks like.
No blank checks for ICE. 👏🏼

David Huerta's courage in standing with immigrant workers embodies the best of America’s democratic values. It's how we show up for our neighbors, coworkers, & families. It's how we peacefully fight back as this administration turns its military on its own people. #JusticeForDavid

There’s no time for business as usual. ‼️ Those in power in D.C., who are pushing an anti-worker/pro-billionaire agenda are counting on our silence and inaction to allow their plans to succeed. But that is not who we are. — the Sept-Oct issue of the 1199Mag, will be hitting mailboxes next week! 📬
This happened in ruby red Lakewood, New Jersey!
Nearly 400 anti fascists turned out to say #NoKings!

Not 1 sandwich was thrown.
No one from DHS burst into tears at the sight of someone dressed as a 🐸
In 150 minutes we had 700 cars honk to support & a dozen flip us the bird.
Part 2
We want to give a special shoutout to our friends @nj.1199seiu.org for bringing their fire!
