"I just want to note that many smart people said Starbucks workers would never get to a contract, just like many smart people said what we're doing could never work. Determination goes a long way." ~Ben @restaurantwrkrs
A giant step forward made possible by thousands and thousands of us joining together and speaking out… 🚨THIS IS HUGE.🚨
The governor of SC issues a warning to service workers and any other industry that wants to organize in SC: "We will fight all the way to the gates of Hell, and we will win." He also boasted about SC being the least unionized state in the country and vowed to keep it that way.
After SC Governor McMaster declared war on unions, workers across the state are fighting back. Join this important mobilization to push back against their racist and anti-worker agenda!

It's not too late to join the AFBU Krewe in this year's Mardi Gras parade! The overall theme of the parade is "The Secret Garden," and our Krewe's theme is: "Thyme for Affordable Housing, There's Gnome Place Like Home." (We'll be dressed as herbs and garden gnomes.)
Workers Assembly is launching a new program open to all workers who want to #OrganizeTheSouth by getting a job in a strategic industry. Learn more + apply: southernworker.org/rankandfile
This is what solidarity looks like ✊️💛
NOW: After 12 schools shut down by sick out, 1000+ Durham Public Schools workers (@DurhamEducators) and supporters picket DPS central office to demand respect, fair pay/no clawbacks, a seat at the table! #OrganizeTheSouth

Our first ever General Membership meeting is on Feb 20th! Join us to be part of the planning for the union's activities this year. Plus, we'll be talking about the upcoming first elections for a Steering Committee. There will be food and mingling from 6-7pm. The meeting is 7-9pm
Everyone deserves a consistent living wage that doesn't depend on other people's generosity. It's humiliating to think that our work isn't worth more than $2.13 an hour, or to pander to people simply in hopes that they'll tip us so we can pay our rent.
Workers at a massive Toyota plant in Kentucky are trying to unionize with the @UAW. 8,000 workers across a 1,300-acre facility could join the union. It could be the single biggest leap forward in organizing 150,000 non-union autoworkers. substack.perfectunion.us/p/i-make-cars-…
Cookies as a bonus kinda feels like, "Let them eat cake." Just sayin'
Organize your workplace so your bonuses come in cash instead of cookies.
2024 WORKER POWER SUMMIT: Service workers from across the South have come together for USSW's 2nd annual Worker Power Summit in Greensboro, NC because we know that the ONLY WAY TO MAKE CHANGE IS TO DEMAND IT. ✊🏽🔥✊🏾🎉 #UnionsforAll #OrganizetheSouth
HUGE crowd out in the rain at the Durham School Board meeting tonight to stand up to support the demands of @DurhamEducators for classified staff pay & a seat at the table #OrganizeTheSouth
We stand in solidarity with workers everywhere. Stay tuned for a call to action from these workers in Asheville. instagram.com/stories/wnc_wo…
Today, we will hear from an organizer in public housing about the issues facing residents of Asheville's Housing Authority. On the wages portion of the show, Sam of Just Economics will discuss the new Buncombe County Living Wage rate, which is now $22.10/hr.
A labor union representing workers at Ben & Jerry’s flagship store in Burlington announced Thursday that it had ratified its first contract with the company. buff.ly/3SpgTFW
Working class solidarity matters. We gotta have it across all workplaces and in every industry.
Last week, we had the pleasure of meeting with a group of workers in Raleigh to discuss the newly formed Raleigh F&B United!! We even got to join them in solidarity when they went on strike Friday evening. Solidarity is brewing across the South!
