All workers deserve a fair shot at joining a union. Gov. Polis, our entire labor movement is watching: Honor your commitment to workers by modernizing CO’s outdated labor laws.
Gov. Polis is vetoing the Worker Protection Act TODAY, Kyle Clark was right. He is handing his veto pen to wealthy corporations. @kyleclark @GovofCO

We joined @SEIU105 at yesterday's workers' block party to celebrate our work as a united front in this year's leg session. Passing the #WorkerProtectionAct through both chambers was a big step forward for #workersrights in CO. Now, it's up to @jaredpolis to sign the WPA into law!

Colorado's blue-state status is tarnished by a prominent red mark: a legacy of suppressing labor unions.

The group project is almost done ✏️ Workers, leaders, and legislators across Colorado came together to modernize our outdated labor laws. Now it's on @GovofCO @jaredpolis to do the right thing and stand with workers, not billionaires. Sign that bill! #coleg #copolitics
Yesterday we joined unions, community leaders & legislators in @jaredpolis' backyard to celebrate the PASSING of the Worker Protection Act! 🙌 Now it’s on @GovofCO's desk and it’s time for him to stand with working families, not corporate profits. #coleg #copolitics
