The AFFI proudly celebrates the work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr: “The labor movement did not diminish the strength of the nation, but enlarged it. Those who today attack labor forget these simple truths, but history remembers them.”

Don’t fall for the cheap lies from @illinoispolicy. Vote YES for Workers’ Rights!
Vote Yes for Workers' Rights@ILWorkersRights5 Nov 2022
WORKERS' RIGHTS FACT CHECK: Anti-worker organizations are spreading lies about the Workers' Rights Amendment impacting taxes. But their own data shows they aren't telling the truth. MORE ➡️ chicago.suntimes.com/columni…

It’s been proven once again that the Illinois Policy Institute is making up nonsense to trick voters and making them vote for the interests of IPI’s big-money donors. Shame.
Mark Maxwell@MarkMaxwellTV3 Nov 2022
The Illinois Policy Institute is sending text messages to people in an attempt to discredit this @KSDKNews story. Their texts misconstrue the report, which clearly spells out how we know they’re just making things up to scare people. Hint: they admit it. ksdk.com/article/news/verify…

VERIFY: Is it true property taxes in Illinois will increase if Amendment 1 passes on Nov. 8?

Amendment 1, a right to collective bargaining measure, could change the state’s constitution. 5 On Your Side viewers want to know if it also guarantees a tax hike.

Emergency responders deserve the best training and safety equipment to keep them safe while saving our lives. But Springfield politicians want to take those rights away. #voteyesforworkersrights to help emergency responders like Mike keep us safe.

The @ILWorkersRights Amendment will protect the ability of nurses, firefighters & law enforcement to speak up when they are understaffed or have old or ineffective equipment and training. That's makes us ALL safer! @CFDLocal2 @teamsters700 @INAaction Chicago Police Sergeants – at Chicago, IL

By putting more money in the pockets of working families, the Workers' Rights Amendment strengthens the entire economy.

Hope it doesn't come to this, but if it does we will stand strong w @Unitehere11. The only thing that should be crossed is home plate by the players. When Labor puts up a picket line - nobody crosses it! latimes.com/sports/dodgers/s…

Mayday update. Five CFD members are being transported. A sixth is being evaluated for possible transport. Christ and LCM hospitals. These are NOT life-threatening injuries. We believe there was a flashover at this fire.

Yesterday was a nightmare. Three heroes gave their lives protecting Baltimore City. We will honor them, PJ, Kelsey, and Kenny, now and always, never forget. The battle is not over. FF John McMaster remains hospitalized. He will make it thru, he is a fighter! #KeepFightingJohn
