Unconscionable. This innocent man is a legal resident and should be home with his family in Maryland.
Instead, he was shackled by ICE and disappeared into a Salvadoran megaprison without any charges or due process.
The cruelty is the point.
NEW: The U.S. government accidentally deported a Maryland father to El Salvador due to an "administrative error," landing him in a notorious mega-jail and leaving him stuck there in legal limbo, according to legal papers filed by the government. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/man…

Despite support from @svilleeducators , @CAASomerville , @Boston_DSA, the majority of the city council rejected SMEA's request to freeze city management salaries. SMEA's fight for a contract will be many months long. How do you want to support them?

Statement from SEIU 509 President David Foley: "When university administrations suppress protests, they undermine the foundation of our democracy and silence the voices of those fighting for a better future."

Five socialist elected officials across Greater Boston are issuing this joint statement condemning the repression of student protestors & standing in solidarity with student encampments for a free Palestine.
Sam retweeted
Negotiations failed between Tufts and protesters demanding divestment.
The university will issue no trespass orders, and students who do not vacate the encampment will be subject to Community Standards processes which may result in suspension or sanctions.

No graduate student worker should be struggling to make ends meet when Boston University has a $3 billion endowment. These workers deserve a living wage and strong benefits. Boston University must bargain a fair contract immediately.
Boston is a union town and BU is a union campus. Together with adjunct professors and res life workers, we will make sure of it. #BUGWUonStrike

The cis white gays never do seem to grasp that "being a member of the community" does not make you immune from perpetuating homophobia, and certainly didn't stop this one from pedaling transphobia
Calling that out doesn't make someone homophobic. def don't vote for this guy.
Zac Bears. I’m a member of the LGBTQIA+ community. As I told you before, you suggesting otherwise is a gratuitous homophobic attack. Voters deserve the facts and they can judge for themselves: electjustin.org/diversity-an…

Vote for @RandWilson on March 5th. He's a union organizer and deeply passionate about the State Committee.
I too would like to be represented by someone who doesn't block constituents for disagreeing with them.

It’s great that there’s an alternative and we need more #UnionStrong voices on the @MassDems!
@JustinKlekota had the opportunity to apologize and make amends however he decided to double down on his anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric. It’s time to replace him on the DSC.
