Union busting is (say it with me) disgusting! Instead of recognizing @SBWorkersUnited, @Starbucks is using every terrible trick in the book to try and slow down the wave of over 200 successful union wins across the country. Support fired organizers in NY with your next order ⤵️

You are the best example of amplifying workers voices!
It’s an honor to be recognized by my peers & mentors from @MetroLaborNYC as Labor Communicator of the Year. It’s a privilege to be in the legislature at this critical juncture, using what I’ve learned about organizing & communication to build up NY’s working families. #1U

Absolutely love to learn. ✍🏼 Great panel on labor & the media hosted by @MetroLaborNYC ft. @GrimKim, @chelseaconnor, @roguecedro, @BillFletcherJr, & @RichardSteier. Labor communications hits the truest notes when it’s worker led and directed.

Love hearing how @roguecedro views communications as an extension of translation. That’s why @SBWorkersUnited puts workers as the press contacts on their media work. (I’m tweeting @MetroLaborNYC convention
