We say this time and time again. Federal workers do NOT engage in political work while on government time. That is explicitly prohibited by the Hatch Act and our union adheres to that law. Period.

When disaster strikes, labor springs into action. The AFL-CIO stands with the heroic union members putting their lives on the line to save lives, keep the roads safe, the hospitals staffed, the water and power running, and so much more during these horrific wildfires.

BUT WHEN I CURL THEM TOGETHER LIKE THIS INTO A SINGLE UNIT THEY FORM A WEAPON THAT IS TERRIBLE TO BEHOLD!” In the second vex, Lucy is walking away and Linus looks at his hand. His text bubble reads: “WHY CANT YOU GUYS GET ORGANIZED LIKE THAT?” Below the comic, bubble letters read “It’s ok to ORGANIZE”.

Trump's attack on overtime pay is just another way he's siding with corporate greed over hardworking Americans. Workers see through the lies and aren’t buying his BS anymore— and we’re fighting back.

Labor news: Union election petitions shot up 27% in the most recent fiscal year, and they’ve doubled since FY2021, per new NLRB data. “The surge in cases we’ve received in the last few years is a testament to workers knowing and exercising their rights,” says @NLRBGC Abruzzo.
