SEIU Local 49
@seiu49
We are 15,000 workers in Oregon & SW Washington standing together for fair pay, affordable healthcare >>
Maybe... juuuust maybe... the problem is the greedy companies not paying good wages and not the workers? 🤯 #CostOfLiving #LaborShortage #TaxTheRich #IncomeInequality #UnionStrong
Our mamá loves us very much and only wants the best for us. #LoveYouMom #MomKnowsBest #UnionStrong
Contact your local union about organizing if you are experiencing these symptoms of Billionaire Burden Syndrome: ✅ Your bills going up ✅ Small or no raises at work ✅ No respect on the job ✅ Record profits and layoffs ✅ Tax breaks for corporations but not for working families #CostOfLiving
Boss Math is thinking you can gaslight workers into accepting less when we see how much you've spent on your salaries. 😬 #GaslightGatekeepGirlboss #WorkMemes #LaborMovement #BargainingMemes #CostOfLiving
Our union contracts are how we uphold our rights and respect on the job—no boss can take that away from us. #CostOfLiving #WorkMeme #Solidarity #Organize #UnionStrong
#TFW bosses get a lot nicer now that they know they can't bully ALL of us. #LaborRights #WorkMemes #Solidarity #LaborMovement
We keep asking and we keep hearing crickets.... 🙃 It's time to take the power back from the free-loading rich. #OrganizeAUnion #TaxTheRich #LaborRights #WorkMemes #UnionStrong
This #4thofJuly, we celebrate the shared belief that hard work should lead to a better future. No matter our background, we all want strong communities, opportunity, and a brighter tomorrow for our families. That common hope is what brings us together.
It's time to reassess how you treat others when the families who work for you have to make a choice between rent and food. You're not a hero when you use your wealth to harm others. #CostOfLiving #WorkMeme #TaxTheRich #IncomeInequality #UnionStrong
It's like they forget we talk to each other about these things... 💀 #BargainingMeme #CostOfLiving #GroupChat #LaborMovement

They want us divided. We’re building solidarity instead. This #PrideMonth, we celebrate LGBTQIA+ workers and organizers who continue to fight back against attacks on our rights, our freedoms, and our futures. Worker power is people power.
Pride is a protest. It always has been. This year, it's also a reminder that our collective power is the most effective tool we have against attacks on LGBTQIA+ rights. Show up. Speak out. #PrideMonth
Pride is more than a celebration, it’s a movement. LGBTQIA+ workers have always helped lead the fight for justice on the job and in our communities. This #PrideMonth, we honor the trailblazers and organize for a future where everyone is protected, respected, and paid.
🙌🏽 This #AAPIMonth, we recognize the AAPI community not just for contributions, but for leadership in this moment. When freedoms are on the line, AAPI workers are helping to lead the fight for justice, protection, and opportunity for all.
This #AAPIHeritageMonth, we’re not just celebrating, we’re naming what’s happening. Rights are being rolled back. Immigrant communities are being targeted. And AAPI workers are organizing, pushing back, and holding the line. ✊🏽
This #AAPIMonth, we salute the AAPI community whose dedication to economic justice, labor rights, and racial equity continues to drive the fight for money, power, and respect. 💥

Working families need a voice in Salem who will stand up for us, not millionaires & corporations. Someone who will fight for workers’ rights & the right to fair wages. As our next Oregon State Senator we know we can trust that SEIU member Myrna Muñoz will always have our back. #UnionStrong #orpol
As we mark #AAPIHeritageMonth, we honor the leadership of AAPI workers who continue to organize in the face of real challenges. From attacks on freedoms to rising costs to threats against immigrant families. This is what worker power looks like.

Tammy gets it: working people don't have to settle for crumbs while billionaires rig the system in their favor. She's running to tax the rich & invest in what Oregon families actually need—fully funded schools, universal healthcare, and real protections for renters. #UnionStrong #orpol #ORPrimaries
