Thank you to @GovernorVA, Chair Torian, and @thedrmikejones for joining us at the Google Data Center job celebration at IBEW — and to everyone who made this moment and investment possible. Virginia’s workforce is second to none!

Thank you Mayor Gaskins! This explains PLAs perfectly!
Let’s talk about Project Labor Agreements and the opportunities that the City Hall Renovation will create for Alexandria workers. #alexandriava #mayorofalx #alyiaforalx

NoVA Labor is extremely disappointed that working class residents are denied the right to vote on a project with 5,000 private sector union jobs. The only way to lift people out of poverty and reverse inequality is to allow private sector workers to organize. Big loss for workers.

As we celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr day, let’s not forget his words: “Wherever [Right-to-Work] laws have been passed, wages are lower, job opportunities are fewer and there are no civil rights. We do not intend to let them do this to us. We demand this fraud be stopped. Our weapon is our vote.” —Martin Luther King, speaking about right-to-work laws in 1961

It’s not a coincidence that as union membership goes down, wealth inequality has gone up. It’s not a coincidence that the decline of union membership mirrors the decline of the middle class. We need labor organizing to return the balance of power to the hands of hardworking Virginians. Read more here👇👇👇 bit.ly/R2WCardinalNews

Commanders agreed to PLA and Labor Peace at proposed stadium and hotels, bringing good union jobs to DC. An entertainment district in Tysons could bring thousands of union jobs the same way if a referendum were allowed.
Solidarity is the only path forward. We all signed agreements within minutes of each other. Doesn’t matter if Doctor Seuss said it or whatever, we all do better when we all do better.

Le Diplomate hates unions. Don't dine at a union-busting restaurant. Honor the boycott at Le Diplomate and Osteria Mozza and The Occidental, also owned by STARR. Learn more about the boycott here: eatfairdc.org/

Tonight in DC! Don’t miss it!
Join @jazbrisack and me at @PoliticsProse - the OG - tonight at 7 pm to discuss their new book “Get on the Job and Organize!” No bigger demand of all of us than that!!! From that flows all working class power and ability to exercise it for the world we need.
