You should…
Join your union or organize your workplace. There is power in union!
Issue: Workers' Rights
Over 70% of people support unions, the highest it’s been since the 60’s. But a concentrated attack on unions and the changing nature of work means it’s harder than ever for workers to have a voice at work (although that still hasn’t stopped people from organizing!). Biden and the Democrats ran on a platform of making it easier to organize at work, passing the PRO Act, raising the minimum wage, and ensuring protections for insecure workers, like farm, gig, and domestic workers. And Republicans love to talk about how much they support the workers and working class. So what will it take for them to finally pass legislation to support all of us?
Local governments should…
Pass local legislation and policies that increase the minimum wage. They should also pass local legislation and end Right to Work laws to ensure every worker has the right to form a union, especially informal work sectors. Organize in your community and join your local union campaign to do it.
Congress should…
Pass legislation to increase the minimum wage, as well passing the PRO act and ensure every worker has the right to form a union, especially the growing informal work sectors like gig and domestic work.
