A top Chamber of Commerce official told me that unions are a relic of the 1930s. But workers—particularly young workers—disagree, whether they're at Starbucks, Amazon, Trader Joe's or Apple. If unions are a relic, young Americans didn’t get the message. washingtonpost.com/outlook/2022/0…

And of course, Naomi is also supporting Brookings United's own Hannah Stephens as she runs with us to be VP of Organizing. Naomi first recruited Hannah as a steward, and has seen her skills as a creative & talented organizer during their most recent contract negotiations.
