Today. April 8 — the date they said they could walk. 97% authorization, 29 sessions of no movement from ISU. The cafeteria workers, the groundskeepers, the people who keep it running. Solidarity with AFSCME Local 1110. #AFSCME #LaborRights
Every union leader in America should, immediately, tell the WH they will call for a complete work stoppage if Trump goes ahead with his plan to obliterate the Iranian people. One bomb will initiate a nationwide strike.

Unions give workers a real voice on the job to keep up with the cost of living, build a stable future, and strengthen our communities. When workers can stand together, wages go up, workplaces get safer, and families have a real chance to live and thrive in Colorado. Unions are the building blocks of democracy, critical to the fight against Trump and authoritarianism. We need a Governor who will fight back against Trump and corporate billionaires and strengthen workers’ rights in Colorado! Email Jared Polis, Phil Weiser and Michael Bennet, and tell them to support the Worker Protection Act! For more information visit coloradoworkers.org or coaflcio.org Billion dollar corporations and the politicians who listen to them profit from a system that keeps workers quiet, keeps wages low, and makes it incredibly hard to form a union. We need to fight back in Colorado by passing the Worker Protection Act so workers can form a union without intimidation or a second election created to stop them. Every Democrat in the legislature voted for it last year, but Governor Polis vetoed it.

I had the opportunity to meet with Senator Hoffman today, and as I was waiting for him to get done with his meeting, I took a picture of his nameplate. It reminded me of how much resilience that he has, that Minnesota has. In the face of adversity, we still stand!

Dear Americans, The party is over. You have neglected your federal governments crimes against humanity for decades on end, and now Trump's Gestapo is murdering your own citizens on the streets. This is what happens when you allow your leaders impunity. Crime after crime, war of aggression after war of aggression always going unpunished. When there is no accountability there is no justice, and when there is no justice, fascist will seize power. Now the deal is done, the US is a fascist oligarchy, and be sure, there is only one way out of this mess, we must pull our collective heads out of our ass and organize! Union leaders must step up or be put out, organized labor is the critical weapon in a war against fascism. When at last workers organize they can bring the machine to a stand still, and nothing frightens the oligarchs more than the wheels of profit falling off the bus. And keep this point in mind, if somehow workers gather the courage and build the solidarity to fight back against Trump and his Gestapo, then and only then will workers have an opportunity to overthrow this corrupt system run by the Billionaire class. If we can beat back Trump and his Gestapo, then we can have a democracy. One in which workers democratically control the means of production. Another world is possible, but the slave owners will not go quietly, they must be forcibly removed from power and many of them imprisoned for their crimes. It can happen, but it won't happen unless and until we ORGANIZE!
Taking down Trump & his Gestapo AKA ICE, is only the 1st step. Workers can run this country, and they can damn sure do it better than the billionaires. But unless we organize we will be defeated by fascists.

An office cubicle shown through its entryway. On the left is a near-life-size cutout of Dolly Parton holding a book. On the right is a larger-than-life cutout of former AFSCME president Jerry Wurf with a stern facial expression. A book cart, shelves, tables, boxes, and a concrete pillar are depicted along with various artwork/posters adorning the cubicle walls. Large windows fill the background with partial city skyline behind sheer shades. All under a dusty drop ceiling and fluorescent lighting.
No one has a cooler cubicle than me!
