Today is the day, @californialabor.bsky.social is hosting our 2026 Convention in Oakland, a union town! The House of Labor has come together in the true spirit of democracy to make our 2026 general election endorsements!
Right now, more than ever, it’s important to show solidarity in the face of our true enemy: AI billionaires. Remember, it is ALWAYS workers over billionaires. Join the fight, click the link in the following post!
This election season, ask yourself one simple question: Which side are you on? Today and everyday, we're with the union!
This problem was a political choice by those in power, and it falls on those in power to fix it.
Today, on the @apwu.bsky.social National Day of Action, we are demanding that the Trump Administration: ✅ Ensures the U.S. Postal Service (which provides affordable, reliable mail for ALL Americans) remains public and financially secure! ❌ Keep its hands off of our mail-in ballots!
The Labor Movement in Kern County is building power for working people and fighting for our healthcare and our democracy. Which side are you on?
As president @lorenagonzalez.bsky.social says in this interview, public sector workers deserve the same rights as anyone else. "Teachers, firefighters, nurses, social workers and state employees all deserve a voice in their workplace."
Journalist Josephine Walker of @axios.com says it all: "America is quickly becoming a patchwork of protections. Those with a union contract have a say in their technological future." 💪
TOMORROW: Join an @apwu.bsky.social Day of Action event near you and show your support for a robust public Postal Service that serves everyone!

President @lorenagonzalez.bsky.social joined @aflcio.org President @lizshuler.bsky.social and @massaflcio.bsky.social President Chrissy Lynch to fight for strong guardrails on AI for all working people across the country!
The @washingtonpost.com highlighted a damning study that confirms that Amazon, Walmart, and gig companies are robbing working people at a scale we've never seen before.
Bosses using AI to make workers' jobs harder is backfiring. Out of control, unregulated AI in the workplace is DRIVING workers to unionize in tech and every other sector of the economy. Do you want to unionize your workplace? We can help you get started, reach out to us at UnionizeCalifornia.org!
This Politico headline is billionaire propaganda, plain and simple. Working Americans are dealing with one of the worst affordability crises in history. Unions are fighting to make sure workers are paid what we deserve.
Unions are active all across the state, taking it to the boss! It's Solidarity Summer - support working people at an action near you! Check out the link below!
🚨 ACTION ALERT ⚠️ ILWU Local 6 members at C&H Sugar in Crockett are on strike because the company has refused to bargain in good faith. Workers are fighting against the company’s push to eliminate retiree health benefits and reduce sick leave and overtime pay.
Calling all union members active in their faith congregation! We are kicking off our annual Labor in the Pulpits program for Labor Day weekend, where union members are encouraged to share their experiences as workers with their congregation! Reach out and get involved today!
On Solidarity Monday, union allies from across the Bay Area SHOWED UP in solidarity to demand that Marathon agree to a fair contract immediately!
Despite fighting for more than two months for a safer working environment at Marathon's Martinez refinery and being locked out of the job, the workers of USW Local 5 are neither down nor out.
As we celebrate 250 years of democracy, remember this: A strong middle class is the foundation of a free society. Without it, democracy cannot survive.
