We've raised over $3,500 to support campus workers by distributing groceries and food on the picket lines, and even running our own hardship fund. Help us expand our worker support by donating here venmo.com/code?user_id=35898…

“Honoring my colleague means more than words—it means changing the system that failed him so no one else pays the price.” After an UPTE member was killed at SFGH, we demand a safety plan now, staffing/caseload limits, PTO, & trauma support. Read here: upte.org/demands

"Join DSA" —NYC Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani Socialists won nationwide last night, highlighted by Zohran's big win. Every single one of those wins was made possible by people rejecting cynicism and choosing hope, choosing belief in a better world, and organizing to make it happen.

UPTE members at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab took a break from our strike vote today to march on the boss! We called out the low morale and retention issues caused by an arbitrary, unfair merit raise system. We don't want to strike, but are ready if that's what it takes! #union

I am humbled by the support of more than 545,000 New Yorkers in last week's primary. This is just the beginning of our expanding coalition to make New York City affordable. And we will do it together.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done. My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it. I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Congratulations to @ZohranKMamdani on your incredible victory. Your campaign proves what can happen when a grassroots movement stands up to corporate greed, defends the humanity of Palestinians, and makes no apology for its belief in a more equal & affordable society for all.

We unequivocally affirm Iran’s right to self-defense, guaranteed by Article 51 of the UN Charter. “Nothing in the present Charter shall impair the inherent right of individual or collective self-defence if an armed attack occurs against a Member of the United Nations."

Only by dismantling the structures of US imperialism and Israeli settler colonialism can lasting peace and dignity be achieved. We all have a part to play in preventing our government from starting another deadly forever war.
