Friends, I’m running for Oklahoma AFL-CIO President. Now more than ever, Oklahomans need the kinds of policies that unions fight for. I’ve worked alongside Oklahomas unions during my time as a state representative, and I hope to work for them soon. Let’s get to work!

This is what public transit has been asking for decades, except with buses & trains it’s a couple bucks for a ticket instead of tens of thousands for the car (especially Tesla) plus hundreds more/month for insurance (& it reduces traffic so your commute isn’t a giant parking lot).

This is one of those jobs that the mass deportation supporting crowd should be lining up for! Truth is, these workers are ten times tougher than the keyboard warriors feel on their trolliest days.

This isn’t tariff related. It’s worse. If nothing else so far has gotten you to care about climate change, maybe the soaring cost of Reese’s Cups will.

Fascinating stuff. This dude just says things & pretends that makes it real?. I do know you don’t have the power to “get rid” of unions. And that they’ve done much more for teachers & kids than you ever will. And that unions will be around long after your career crashes & burns.

A lot of folks won’t understand this reference and that’s fine, there’s a lot going on— but with all the injustices in this world it was good to see the right thing happen, congrats Amaya and Bryan.
