Corporate greed is Tim Cook, the billionaire Apple CEO, claiming that hiking prices on Apple products by over $200 is "unavoidable" after it made $112 billion in profits last year & spent $310 billion on stock buybacks.
These price hikes aren't unavoidable. They're unacceptable.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Apple spent $89.3 billion on stock buybacks in fiscal 2025, not $310 billion. s2.q4cdn.com/470004039/file…

It's workers vs. billionaires and I know which side I'm on.
Proud to stand alongside @SenSanders with @IAM_Union to fight for good-paying union jobs, fair taxes, workers' rights, and an economy that rewards work, not wealth.

IAM members are rallying with @SenSanders, Sen. @ChrisVanHollen, @SenTinaSmith, and @SenMarkey, as International President @IAMBrianBryant proudly endorses the Make Billionaires Pay Their Fair Share Act and calls on members of Congress to sign on as a sponsor. ✊🇺🇸
Today we say to the billionaire class and the corporate CEOs: enough is enough. You cannot have it all.
Your greed is destroying this country. And if you don’t change, we’re going to change it for you. xitter.cf/i/broadcasts/1rGmqqRZz…

In 2022, workers at the Apple Store in Towson made history as the first to unionize their store.
Now, Apple is closing the store & the workers of IAM Local 4538 have gone to the NLRB over unfair labor practices.
Apple is worth $4.3+ TRILLION. They can afford to do better, they chose not to.

Apple is closing its first unionized store, but the IAM Union isn’t going anywhere.
We will always have our members’ backs and never stop fighting corporate greed.
Solidarity forever. ✊🍎

🚨 @Apple faces MORE pressure 🚨
54 members of the Congressional @Labor_Caucus are calling on the @NLRBGC to investigate the company's treatment of workers at its unionized Towson store.
The tech giant plans to close the store and lay off 90 workers on June 20.

40 Progressive Caucus Members are urging @Apple to reverse the announced closure of a unionized Apple Store in Towson, MD, in what appears to be a union-busting effort. Retaliating against organizing workers is against the law.

🚨BREAKING🚨
40 @USProgressives members of Congress are calling out Apple’s union-busting plan to close its first unionized U.S. retail store.
No worker should face retaliation for exercising their right to organize.

Two years ago, the Apple Store in #Towson became the first unionized Apple retail store in the nation. Now, these workers are celebrating another historic feat as they become the FIRST to ratify a contract with Apple that increases pay, improves work-life balance, and reinforces job security.
Congratulations to the International Association of Machinists Coalition of Retail Employees on this trailblazing three-year agreement that sets fairer standards in the workplace and will empower other retail workers across the nation to never shy away from negotiating for what they believe are just and fair working conditions.

Apple retail employees in Towson made history by becoming the first crew in the company to unionize.
Now, they've done it again, securing fair wages and benefits in their first contract.
Marylanders are leading the way for workers' rights.

This is the most pro-labor Administration in history.
Yesterday, @MachinistsUnion members ratified the first contract at an Apple Store to improve work-life balance, pay, and job security.
We’re empowering workers and building up the middle class.

NEW: Employees at the Towson Apple store, @acoreunion, voted by an overwhelming margin today to ratify their contract with the company.

This couldn’t have happened without the hard work of our bargaining committee, our resilient members, the dedicated staff at the @MachinistsUnion, and the unwavering support of our community. We all stood up to a multi-trillion dollar company and did the impossible. #unionstrong

With a union you can split @apple in symmetrical lines and get your fair share. The real question is does @charli_xcx agree organizing your workplace is #brat
