The plane was carrying 37 members of the Marshall University Thundering Herd football team, nine members of the coaching staff, 25 boosters, and four flight crew members. The accident is the deadliest tragedy affecting any sports team in U.S. history. AFA-CWA Remembers Marshall.

As of today, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history. Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

🚨BREAKING: STRIKERS WIN! The order affirms what we’ve said all along: The PG’s lawless union-busting cannot stand. We made sure it didn’t. We’re taking back what they stole from us. We won this strike.

Airline personnel – from pilots to flight attendants – continue to express support for air traffic controllers. @ALPAPilots and the @AFA_CWA remain steadfast in standing with controllers and calling for an immediate end to the government shutdown. #EndTheShutdown

Let me clear it up for @LeaderJohnThune. It’s way past time for a vote to end the shutdown & extend the subsidies. Americans are hurting from these manufactured crises caused by Congress. It’s about to get far worse. Our safety, security & economic stability depend on this vote!
Thune on what's happening today: “We’re going to vote to pay federal workers” On a funding bill: “I would expect that we’re going be here though the weekend” “Our members are going to be advised to be available if in fact there’s a need to vote"

"End this shutdown now and let’s extend these subsidies so that we can end both crises in one vote, today. And we can do that under the leadership of John Thune and we’re calling on him to do that." - @FlyingWithSara
