This is unacceptable behavior, especially from a profitable company. We hope @futureplc will do the right thing and extend COBRA and severance for our laid-off unit members.
.@FuturePLC recently laid off two of our unit members without giving any prior notice to the union. The layoffs were not just handled poorly, but cruelly. We’re now urging management to extend these unit members’ COBRA and severance. /1

We. Have. Power. This is not a change of heart - but it is a shift in power. Using power builds power. “Unions are cool”because working people are fighting back, striking, and owning our right to exercise the power of solidarity. Keep fighting. #PROAct #1u
NEW: Escalating a push by ambitious Republicans to spotlight American workers, Sen. Marco Rubio today will side with the union in a high-stakes organizing campaign at an Amazon facility in Alabama. axios.com/rubio-amazon-union…

🎉 Congrats @futureusunion !
It's been a long 477 days since we started negotiating this contract, back when the bargaining table was an actual physical table (left). Tonight, the committee agreed on a deal with management and recommended it to our full membership. We're so proud of what we've accomplished

477 days. 477!! But every damn one of them was worth it for what we’ve gained in this contract, and the amazing people I’ve gotten to know through this process. Organize your workplace, there’s truly power in a union
