Workers are literally dying from extreme heat. No one should die just for going to work.
We will continue to fight for enforceable heat standards until we have the protections we need.

We’re not asking for luxury. We’re simply asking for what’s fair.
It’s time for @mayorgallego.bsky.social and @cityofphoenixaz.bsky.social City Council to step up.
Keeping up with the cost of living is no joke. Security officers like Geoff need higher wages now. That’s why he’s uniting with officers across California with @USWW to fight for a fair contract. #StandForSecurity

They promised $1,000 back.
But when you do the math? It falls short, by like a lot.
Meanwhile, billionaires and corporations keep cashing in.
So no, there’s no “lack of money.”
It’s about who they choose to give it to. https://seiu.co/4sA7ZUJ
Tesla. Disney. CVS Health. United Airlines. PayPal. Billions in profits. $0 in federal corporate income taxes.
That money should be funding schools, healthcare, and public services.
This is why people are mad as hell.
Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport Service Workers across Phoenix are speaking out for a living wage!
With poverty wages, even a one-bedroom is out of reach.
@mayorgallego.bsky.social @cityofphoenixaz.bsky.social City Council, it’s time to create a real path to $25/hr!
Work an hour and still can’t afford basic food. 🤬
And they’ll tell you it’s your fault.
WRONG.
Working people are doing their part. The system isn’t.

We're committed to good-faith bargaining.
Can Starbucks's actions say the same?
Pay them what NYC costs.
Last month AZ declined to recommend an enforceable workplace heat safety standard. Now a commission is considering next steps.
We won’t back down. We need real protections:
👉🏾 Access to cool water
👉🏾 AC breakrooms
👉🏾 Training to recognize heat illness
Children are losing food. Families are getting buried in red tape. State agencies are being gutted. And folks in power want us to call this reform?
Arizona is the alarm bell. The whole country better listen.
This country was happy to take immigrant workers’ labor AND their Medicare contributions.
Now, when it’s time for them to retire, suddenly they want to cut them off?
That’s not just unfair. It’s exploitative. https://seiu.co/4mkRWsB
miss me with that one
“The CEOs are not living on a slim profit margin. They're living off the profits of everybody's sweat.”
Try living a day in our shoes.
The real estate industry is booming — but the workers who maintain our homes are being asked to pay more and accept less. That’s not right. With the 34,000 @32BJSEIU members fighting for fair wages, strong benefits, retirement security and dignity on the job.

Slashing Medicaid doesn’t happen in isolation.
First, hospitals cut staff.
Then maternity care disappears.
Then mental health services go.
Emergency rooms get overwhelmed.
Families have to travel farther just to get care.
This is what’s at stake.
THESE are the free Starbucks drinks at Coachella?? 🧐
40% of children in America get their health insurance through Medicaid. These aren't 'government dependents.' They're kids who need checkups, vaccinations, and care. Fight back. #ProtectMedicaid
A webpage from Futurism titled "Almost Half of US Data Centers That Were Supposed to Open This Year Slated to Be Canceled or Delayed." It includes an illustration of two hands: one holding scissors, another blocking them. Published April 2, 2026.
The people have all the power. We just have to organize to use it.
A living wage is not radical.
Affordable healthcare is not radical.
A union is not radical.
Security officers in CA are joining our voices to raise industry standards. We’re calling on lawmakers to pass the Stand for Security Act to create safer workplaces for us all. Yes on SB 1203. #StandForSecurity
Slashing Medicaid means your local hospital cuts staff.
Then it cuts maternity care.
Then mental health care.
Then emergency care gets backed up.
Then families have to drive farther.
Then… I can keep going.
About a week ago, union baristas & allies participated in No Kings rallies nationwide and shared what we're up against at Starbucks.
Corporate greed makes everything worse - but we know when we stand together, change is possible.
Until we win a contract, DELETE THE STARBUCKS APP off your phone!
A “golden age” was promised.
Instead, a ‘Black recession’ is what we got. Many Black workers are facing higher unemployment and fewer pathways to stability.
Policies that raise costs and weaken equity protections don’t build economies—they deepen inequality. https://seiu.co/47O2gmV
It’s barely April and extreme heat is already creeping up at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport before summer even begins! It’s time for @cityofphoenixaz.bsky.social to act and ensure safe working conditions for all workers.
When workers unite, power shifts.
That’s why they fear unions.
That’s why we fight.
Here's a shot of good news for your Saturday:
Congratulations to Starbucks workers in Greeley, Colorado just won their union election!! LET'S GOOOOO 🔥
Nobody should have to choose between filling a prescription and filling the fridge.
