It's the seventh time this session that a discharge petition has secured the necessary 218 signatures to force a vote on legislation.

    Here’s a source other than CBS, aka Fox News Light.

    https://www.npr.org/2026/06/09/nx-s1-5851813/house-bill-labor-union-contract-negotiations

    Please stop sending traffic to CBS. They cancelled Colbert and are actively sabotaging 60 Minutes trying to turn it into a state propaganda machine.

    A veto-proof majority in the Senate seems pretty unlikely, but I’m keeping just enough hope to get mad at them if it fails.

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

  • All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
  • Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
  • Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
  • We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

  • Higher wages for underpaid workers.
  • Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
  • Better and fewer working hours.
  • Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
  • Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.
