We are saddened to hear of yet another mass shooting, this time at Robb Elementary School in Texas, that took the lives of 14 students & 1 teacher. Thoughts and prayers are not, and have never been, enough. No one is safe from gun violence in this country and we need action NOW

On this Memorial Day, and everyday, we honor the sacrifice of the fallen and that of their loved ones. It’s important that we do not forget their sacrifice, nor the importance of reflection and meaning of this day. Thank you to all who served.

Today, the Supreme Court ignored 50 years of precedent, ruling that women have no control over the decisions made regarding their bodies. Make no mistake, this is not the end of abortion, it is the end of safe abortions. Women’s rights will always be human rights. #RoeVWade

246 years ago, our forefathers embarked on the grand experiment that is our United States At a time when we can see the rights of some of us being constrained in this country we love, we must continue to work towards a future that embraces the fact that we were all created equal

Today, a July 4th Parade in Highland Park, IL was the victim of a mass shooting, killing 6 and injuring more than 30. We hold them in our hearts. No state, no building, no gathering is immune to this singularly American epidemic. We need action now!

"Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness”. These are rights named by the Declaration of Independence, but they are made possible for working people because of unions. Wishing a happy Labor Day to all!
