We stand with our immigrant neighbors ✊ They are workers and members of our community. Trump's anti-worker mass deportation agenda only makes workplaces and communities less safe.

Holiday Inn & Suites Chicago-Downtown workers are back to work today with a $4 raise! TY to the Chicago & Illinois labor movement for your solidarity and support. We have a tentative agreement with the Company, but the fight is not over until the contract is signed and ratified!

1 in 5 workers in America is an immigrant. The Trump administration’s mass deportation agenda is targeting working families nationwide and is wreaking havoc on our communities and economy. An attack on immigrant workers is an attack on ALL workers.

One in five workers in America wasn’t born here. Immigrants are America’s workers, vital to the fabric of our communities, our economy and our labor movement.

Shame on QSL! It's time they respect workers' rights!
Leonardo is a QSL America worker on strike. He, like his coworkers, have been working in unsafe conditions where maintenance requests have been ignored, equipment has been modified to speed up jobs, training is insufficient, staff is undermanned, and more. https://t.co/JlmQSoTeTc

Civil rights are workers' rights, and when we see those rights being trampled on, the Chicago labor movement knows how to rise up and fight back. We stick together, and no one is going to intimidate us out of standing up for what’s right. Tell Donald Trump: Hands Off Chicago!
