Our branch was asked to weigh in on the recent layoffs at Cinerama. Lets make our position clear:
It is utterly unconscionable for bosses to layoff workers without warning. Shame on the bosses at Cinerama. Solidarity to the laid off workers

Wobbly artist Carlos Cortez was born on this day in history, August 13, 1923. Below are just a few of his many pieces of artwork that inspire IWW members to this day.

Glad to see @MLKLabor taking this action. Cops, who bust unions and have a long history of brutalizing working class people, are not workers. crosscut.com/2020/06/king-c…

10/10 will retweet your best dunk on AFL CIO for not kicking out the cop unions. Some favs:
Police “unions”
🐷 protect cops who murder black folks
🐷 protect cops who murder striking workers
🐷 don’t respect strike lines
🐷 break strikes

Can we all agree now that there’s no such thing as “unskilled labor”?

Reporters can’t let, either consciously or unconsciously, feckless democratic leaders narrow scope of labor debate to those formally on the grid. There are millions who fall outside the scope of paid sick leave or paid time off and they need to be addressed in this reporting

Great reporting but it seems a trend is setting in w/ labor stories & Coronavirus where workers outside scope of paid sick leave eligibility—domestic workers, freelancers, sex workers, undocumented labor—are left out of policy discussion entirely. No mention of these people here.

We'll have a table.
