Young people get it — we can only take back power from the bosses when we’re organized.

Unions enjoy broad, bipartisan support among the public. Workers going on strike have even stronger support.
If you're for the public interest, you should be for unions. If you're for people power, you should be for the right to organize.
Our most recent polling for @AFLCIO shows majorities of GOP, Ind & Dems support labor unions & workers going on strike. Read more here: tinyurl.com/4dbftwes

We reached an agreement with @MAZONusa for voluntary recognition and look forward to our upcoming negotiations toward a successful first contract! We're grateful for all of your steadfast support of MAZON United and your efforts on our behalf tinyurl.com/35setdrk

By my count it's been *459 days* since @TPINunion started bargaining their contract, with bargaining at an impasse as @TPINNetwork + @EnvAm + @uspirg object to an anti-bullying policy. 459 days!
Follow @TPINunion as they fight to make @TPINNetwork a better workplace. ⤵️
.@EnvAm scored second-lowest. We can & should do better. Making change is hard, but we don't have to make it harder through a hostile work environment
This is the same organization that refuses to agree to an anti-bullying policy.

BREAKING: Today we learned that @MAZONusa management doubled down on their confrontational stance toward our union by hiring Littler Mendelson, a notorious law firm with a troubling antiworker history and a track record for aggressive, union-busting tactics.

This is reprehensible

What I love most about the anti-hunger advocacy community is the sense that we are in the fight to #EndHunger together - across the US. These past two weeks, worker solidarity @MAZONusa has gone through the roof. We are @MazonUnited. Will you stand with us? #1u #unionstrong
We’re disappointed that @MAZONusa refused to recognize our union. 92% of us bravely communicated to management our vision for strengthening MAZON. Management responded with textbook delay tactics.

✊🏾✊🏻 Worker solidarity is Jewish. Our logo incorporates the faith-based values professed @MAZONusa. The raised fist of solidarity is incorporated into the Tree of Life. And we use the same Yiddish slogan as 19th-century Jewish organizers, "Let us Organize!" #1u #unionstrong

Us, watching all our friends get voluntarily recognized while we wait on @MAZONusa management to recognize the demands of 92% of workers. 🥲

🗣️📢 If @MAZONusa management is supportive of our union like they say, the process starts with voluntary recognition. Anything else is anti-union advice cooked up by an anti-union lawyer

It's not too late, @MAZONusa! We're hopeful we can celebrate together the recognition on our union and desire to strengthen MAZON together
@MAZONusa it's not too late to take a pro-union, pro-labor stand in line with your values. Please voluntarily recognize @MazonUnited!

In 2020 we asked for voluntary recognition & we got it because we all (board, ED & staff) saw it as a natural extension of our Jewish values
It's not hard to do @MAZONusa! Recognition isn't just a sign of respect- it saves time & energy for us all to do our values-driven work!

Undeterred is an understatement. We're fired up 🔥🔥🔥
We are undeterred. As we told management repeatedly, we are filing for an election with the NLRB. We hope they will change course and voluntarily recognize our union w/ @CWAUnion. There is still time to live up to our organization's stated values. #1u #UnionStrong #HotLaborSummer
It was great to talk to @eJPhil about the values and vision of @MazonUnited. We unionized because we believe in the mission of @MAZONusa and want it to be the best workplace it can be. I hope management will come to the table. #HotLaborSummer #UnionStrong
