We are heartbroken and outraged to learn of the murder of our union sibling, Alex Pretti, by federal agents today in Minneapolis. A member of @AFGELocal3669, Alex devoted his life to caring for our veterans.

Under Lee Zeldin, EPA is allowing levels of pollution we have never seen the agency permit before. He's completely corrupting EPA's mission. Instead of protecting people and the environment, Zeldin is letting polluters get away with polluting MORE. That's why Moms are calling for his resignation. Join us by telling Congress, Zeldin must go! Sign here: bit.ly/zeldinmustgo #ZeldinMustGo #POLLUTIONSPREE

Democrats must HOLD THE LINE. Do not cave to right-wing ideologues who have ripped away health care from millions of Americans. Keep fighting, and we will have your back.

Today, @EPA workers in Region 5 began receiving furlough notices—halting work at the agency that protects the American people from toxic pollution. This is the latest blow to the EPA and its mission to protect public health and the environment. 🧵

.@EPA’s goal is clear. They want to intimidate us out of speaking out against their agenda of destruction. But we aren’t going to be bullied. We will continue fighting back, because that is the oath we took. We will protect human health and the environment, no matter what.
