🚨 Circulator is going away, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t have a fair transition to MetroBus. Workers, riders, +the whole District rely on safe, reliable, & accessible mass transit. Tell Bowser and DDOT: CUT OUT THE GAMES: actionnetwork.org/letters/ddot-a… actionnetwork.org/letters/ddot-a…

For years, Local 689 members have provided top-notch service to District residents, commuters, and visitors through DC Circulator. It’s time to do right by our city and ensure that riders, workers, and service don’t get left behind. Here’s how you can help 🧵:

DC Circulator 1. Visit actionnetwork.org/letters/ddot-a… to ensure that DDOT DC and Mayor Muriel Bowser negotiate a transfer of DC Circulator to Metrobus 🧵:

🚨 Local 689 is proud to announce that we have reached a tentative agreement on our contract with Metro Forward! 🚨 Details will be presented to members later this week and a ratification vote will take place shortly thereafter. For more information, talk to your shop steward.

This is a win for restaurant workers across D.C. We are grateful to have a AG Brian Schwalb that fights so hard to enforce the District's powerful worker protections. We know many other restaurant workers are still struggling, and if you to reach out.

HUGE NEWS: in the first 72 hours, we have sent over 720 letters and made many more calls to Mayor Bowser and DDOT. Let’s keep up the momentum to ensure a fair transition of Circulator to MetroBus! actionnetwork.org/letters/ddot-a… 🧵1/5

Grocery store prices are already too high, and far too many DC residents live in food deserts. The $25 billion Kroger-Albertson merger is a bad deal for both DC grocery workers and consumers. We sued to block it with the FTC and eight states. Today our lawsuit goes to court.
