No worker should die on the job.

On we honor our fallen Sisters & Brothers who should have made it home from work.

Hazards like extreme heat don't discriminate. Our laws protecting workers shouldn't either.

We'll fight like hell until every worker is safe.

Spent today with my absolute favorite women in the world… advocating for Farmworkers and celebrating better rules for H2A guest workers. Love our labor ladies!

And they wonder why their employees seek to unionize. These corporations have no respect for the workers that literally keep them in business.

I went to offices in the swing space for the first time since I resigned from the legislature. If you question the superiority of humans over AI, try to access the elevators in our state capitol offices versus the elevator operators of previous years!

As union nurses, it's infuriating to see how hospital systems will spend big bucks to hurt worker organizing efforts instead of prioritizing worker wellbeing and patient care.

consultants earn over $2,000 per day to keep workers divided. huffpost.com/entry/inside-l…

I absolutely love uneventful Doctor appointments now. There is nothing like hearing, “looks good…come back in August, then we will move to once a year.” Once a year! That’s like, normal.

Never take your health for granted & go get your mammogram!!! Early detection saves lives!

Many salaried employees work with hourly employees, doing the same job and often working over 40 hours a week. But, because of a low salary threshold, they're not getting paid overtime.

 
Our new final rule will help millions of salaried workers gain overtime protections ⬇️

BREAKING: 4 million workers will now take home more money when they work more than 40 hours a week under a new Labor Dept. rule released today. The changes would make it so salaried workers earning less than about $59k annually would automatically be due overtime pay.
