Love to see union solidarity in action!

Poverty is not a crime, and being behind on rent should never lead to being shot. A majority of PHLCouncil members are united on the need for public accountability for evictions in Philadelphia. Our statement:

Is it bad that I’m excited to have jury duty on Monday bc it means I don’t have to go into my toxic workplace?

Very happy (and incredibly excited) to share that I am the latest guest on @hannah_rfh 's podcast We The Museum! It was a great experience and I hope y'all enjoy the episode! open.spotify.com/episode/5I76RA…

This is what a 99% strike authorization vote sounds like! We are with you Association of Professional Flight Attendants ✊✊🪧🪧 These workers are READY for a FAIR contract!

What are you supposed to do when it feels like cruelty is the point in your workplace? They believe it will tire us out but it turns out it just makes us want to fight harder. #organize #UnionStrong #SolidaritySummer PMA_Union Philadelphia Museum of Art AFSCME District Council 47 Penn Museum Workers United PTM United

Hey that’s me, AFSCME pres. Lee Saunders, and my PMA_Union fam on the steps of Philadelphia Museum of Art. Also, support a union, join a union, organize a union, and thank a union. Happy #LaborDay y’all. #Solidarity #UnionStrong

Remembering on #Laborday that I saw Spice World in theaters in 97 & then snuck into a different theater to watch Titanic for the 4th time (shh)! SAG-AFTRA Writers Guild of America West Writers Guild of America East workers (& every worker in every sector) deserve a fair contract so future gays can live their best lives

Happy Labor Day y’all! This photo from last year was one of the most thrilling days of my life. Labor Day bbqs are great, but also remember we get weekends (among other things) because of unions. AFSCME⁩ ⁦District Council 47⁩ ⁦PMA_Union⁩ ⁦Philadelphia Museum of Art⁩ #solidarity

Happy Labor Day Philadelphia Museum of Art from me and PMA_Union. No social media post this year about Labor Day? The silence is deafening. AFSCME AFSCME District Council 47 AFL-CIO ✊ #honothecontract

Has your organization’s director ever printed out your pro-labor tweets and confronted you with them? Me neither…that would be wild. Just asking for a friend. #hotunionsummer

So proud of PMA_Union workers, who presented Philadelphia Museum of Art Director, Sasha Suda, with 2,300+ signatures in support of workers at the museum, who have been denied their promised longevity pay. Do better Philadelphia Museum of Art!

Today when I was brushing my teeth I was worrying about whether or not I could pay my bills before pay day next Friday. Not if people would show up to an all staff meeting and like me. If you know, you know. PMA_Union Philadelphia Museum of Art

Unionization doesn't magically fix everything, but it's made a huge difference in the way I feel about my workplace. Thrilled to be in this article with many brilliant colleagues. PMA_Union Philadelphia Museum of Art Why do US museum workers want to quit?: theartnewspaper.com/2023/09/15/why…

I was honored and humbled to support Kendra Brooks and Nicolas O'Rourke 🐺 earlier this week. Working Families Party 🐺 They were here for PMA_Union when we needed them most and labor will be there for them come Election Day! AFSCME District Council 47

Had a great time talking with Seth D. Harris about organizing PMA_Union and hearing insights from other amazing organizers AFSCME

So happy to support Nicolas O'Rourke 🐺 and Kendra Brooks. We need more folks on city council who support the workers of Philadelphia.

It’s with pride, humility, and sadness that I share that tomorrow marks my last day as an educator ⁦Philadelphia Museum of Art⁩ & as President of ⁦AFSCME⁩ Local 397. I couldn’t be more proud of what we built together. Solidarity forever! ⁦PMA_Union⁩ ⁦AFSCME District Council 47⁩

I LOVED my job as a museum educator at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and I’m so proud of the work I did…BUT resigning has been a gift. To all my fellow museum workers, take care of yourselves. Misery isn’t a condition of employment.
