The Affordable Connectivity Program ran out of funding today, but I’m not giving up. We need to fund this program and reconnect the millions of Americans who relied on it. Internet access should not be a luxury.

Today in Baltimore, we commemorated Workers Memorial Day by honoring the six Key Bridge workers who went out to a shift and never came home. On this solemn day, we want everyone to know: no matter who you are or where you're from, the labor movement will fight for you.

Today is Workers’ Memorial Day, a time to honor all who have lost their lives on the job and commit to fighting for stronger workplace protections and safer workplaces across the country every single day. #WorkersMemorialDay2024

We honor those who have lost their lives, and in doing so we honor those who fight like hell for the living and save lives every day. We will never forget our Flight Attendant heroes of Aloha Flight 243.

There are thousands of examples of heroic acts performed by Flight Attendants and millions of examples where, every day, a Flight Attendant is seen as someone’s hero. Today, we pause to recognize Workers Memorial Day.
