NEW: The Salem mayor + the Salem School Committee denounced “in the strongest terms possible” comments Congressman Seth Moulton made about transgender athletes, saying that “neither fear nor political whim will shake our commitment to [students].” bostonglobe.com/2024/11/08/met… #mapoli

The NLRB has ruled that employers can't tell workers that forming a union will hurt their relationship with management. This ruling overturns a precedent established in 1985 and deals another blow to the union-busting playbook. news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-re…

doubling down on transphobia is certainly a choice. imagine admitting you fell for a right-wing lie! so glad the state party forced through his add-on delegate category to bring more white men to the convention despite a clear failed vote (twice!).

“I faced valid criticism for my blatant transphobia and that proves my transphobia correct” continues to be an insane takeaway! A nice public shaming from the state party means we’re finally doing something right here.

which exit poll, buddy? and is it possible that those views don’t align with the reality of a Democratic nominee who didn’t address trans issues and whose campaign made some pretty gross comments about gender affirming care? are you perhaps the one that’s out of touch?

Reporter: Some in your party have blamed voters' perception that Democrats lean too far into culture war issues and transgender issues. Is this helpful? Rep-elect McBride: Let's be clear, the party that was focused on culture wars.. was the Republican party...

trans athletes already compete in women’s sports, including two notable olympians! this kind of transmisogyny tends to disproportionately hurt black cis women. this isn’t a real issue - you don’t care about women’s sports if you only tune in to dunk on trans folks.

Today Local 509 Public Sector chapter leaders took action with Massachusetts AFL-CIO's support to move funding for our raises! We thank Governor Maura Healey for her advocacy to make sure we receive our hard-fought raises & retro pay before the holidays. When we fight, we win 💪

The Massachusetts Legislature passed legislation supporting the use of Project Labor Agreements on public construction projects guaranteeing on-time & on-budget projects paying good wages & benefits for trades men & women!

In June, hundreds of union members rallied at the State House calling for PLAs. Legislative leadership listened and delivered – making clear that when workers show up, we win. We thank Senate President Spilka, Speaker Speaker Ron Mariano, and the Legislature for championing workers.

Something about the AFL-CIO ✊ is that they LOVE consultants. And now the house of labor is refusing to put even 7% of what they spent on consultants in a single year towards their own staff retirement.

One day’s notice, no severance—the DNC fights for workers, just not their own. Full statement below:

“We are pro union and we are pro climate and we all can win.” - Governor Maura Healey Gov. Healey and Pres. Chrissy Lynch kicked off the unveiling of a report calling for NE to invest more in offshore wind, clean energy, and strong union jobs Climate Jobs Massachusetts @riaflcio Climate Jobs National Resource Center

Climate jobs are union jobs. In New Bedford, Somerset, Salem, and all across our state, union workers will be powering our offshore wind industry and the clean energy transition. Great to join Massachusetts AFL-CIO this morning!

“Billionaires already know how to game the system, and now they have the keys to the most powerful government and economy in the world. Government is supposed to be a check to unlimited corporate power, not an arm of it.” - President Chrissy Lynch⁩ bostonglobe.com/2024/11/20/bus…

MARTA WINS HER FIRST-EVER NWSL CHAMPIONSHIP 👏 What a moment for the Brazilian legend 🇧🇷

I talked with Liz Shuler of the AFL-CIO ✊ about Donald Trump's tax plan. Spoiler: It's great for the billionaires and giant corporations, and it's not great for workers and everyone else.

Check out these The Boston Globe letters to the editor about how the Healey-Driscoll Administration’s proposed budget cuts would be disastrous for our communities. #mapoli bostonglobe.com/2025/01/28/opi…

Super grateful to Julie A. Su for her support of the Protect LABOR Act (H.2086 & S.1327)! Mass must take this opportunity to proactively protect working people by safeguarding their right to a union.
