Our contract shows that civil liberties organizations can and must lead by example when it comes to the rights of their own employees. We could not have won a wages, work/life balance, and worker protections without your #solidarity. Check out our wins! ⬇️wbng.org/2026/05/15/aclu-of-…

Executive Director of @ACLU_DC Monica Hopkins still refuses to pay all #union members fairly, even after a 7-hour marathon bargaining session. We urge @ACLU_DC to get this contract done. Stay tuned for ways to support @ACLUDCunion workers! ✊🏽 #solidarity #unionstrong #1u

We're back at the bargaining table today after almost 3 years of fighting for our first contract. Union members at @ACLU_DC are serious in our demands for fair pay, work-life balance, and worker protections. Union contract now!

Union members at @ACLU_DC have been fighting for close to 3 years for our first contract. We’re united in our demands for work-life balance, fair pay, and worker protections. Hear from our members on why we need a fair contract now. Union rights are civil rights.

After over 2 years of bargaining, union members at @ACLU_DC lunched out today because we are serious and united in our demands: fair pay, work-life balance, & worker protections. Let's do this!

Even as we celebrate this win, our bargaining chair is still on administrative leave pending an “investigation.” Attempting to fire a successful employee in retaliation for union activity is unacceptable. Keep up the momentum! actionnetwork.org/letters/te…

We’ll keep you posted on whether @ACLU_DC Executive Director Monica Hopkins does the right thing or if our fight must continue.

It makes no sense to challenge the Trump Administration for retaliating against federal workers, just to turn around and retaliate against union members who are working hard to fulfill the organization’s mission.
