Our mission is to empower every worker to hold Microsoft accountable to their stated values #EmpowerWorkersToo #MicrosoftLife All opinions are our own.

As most of us comfortably work from home, ICE agents are taking advantage of this crisis and breaking public health orders to arrest, all while using Microsoft's technology. We have an opportunity and obligation to speak out. Support Mijente's petition:

We would much rather Microsoft used today to stand up for Transgender people everywhere on Transgender Day of Visibility, instead of building weapons of war.
For two centuries, technology has been changing the nature of what is needed to defend a nation. We are longtime supporters of the @DeptofDefense and @USArmy’s effort to modernize the U.S. Military through advanced technology.

It's also worth noting that none of these politicians are blocklisted. This commitment is only for the 22 cycle.

MSPAC is no longer donating to politicians who sought to overturn the election. This is fantastic news, although it is important to realize that this expected behavior is something that had to be fought for. The bar should not be this low. https://t.co/Nda1F6NMwa

This is a fantastic proposal for reimagining MSPAC in the wake of the Congress Riots and the seditious acts of the candidates @Microsoft donated to.

This morning I took a look into the MSPAC donations via @OpenSecretsDC. In 2020, MSPAC donated to roughly a third of all representatives who pledged to not uphold the election results. Accounting to 1 in 10 dollars donated by the PAC. @bradsmi / @SatyaNadella Shut down the PAC.

Just the other day @BradSmi claimed At Microsoft "our democratic principles must come first." That's clearly not the case with MSPAC. You can't have both.

The MSPAC has a tricky task of donating to the 2 main American political parties to be partisan. Alas this tends to favor one party in particular. (maybe systemic bias? maybe it's easier to give $ to R? or just assumes R will win?)

Congratulations workers at Alphabet/Google on your union announcement! You're making huge strides for the industry for the better.
We're Alphabet workers. We’ve been organizing for over a year, & we’re finally ready to share why. This morning, we're announcing #AWU, the first union open to *all* workers at any Alphabet company. Every worker deserves a union—including tech workers. https://t.co/m2Qmjwz32V

Imagine you're one of those overrated tech hipster engineers making a grand $150K a year. How long would it take for you to reach Amazon's $1 trillion value? We are not the same as the ruling class #MakeAmazonPay

When gig workers go on strike, we all go on strike. If we don’t, by the time our own #Prop22 arrives from the bosses, there will be no one left to fight with us Latest edition of @twcnewsletter by @jesse_squires

This is disgusting, unethical behavior, which is likely why these groups exist in the first place.

Love when MSPAC slips this nonsense under the radar. Please MSPAC, tell us how Lindsey Graham embodies Microsoft's values.

Microsoft: Empowering ICE to achieve putting more children in cages. Perks of a vague mission statement.

Despite the prior objections of thousands of employees and citizens, and resignations across the corporation, Microsoft continues to help ICE separate families and cafe children. Who is Microsoft accountable to? Clearly not the people who are terrorized by ICE.
Microsoft & Amazon double down on the work they do with ICE. This work enables widespread human rights abuses but company execs see the green dollar bills and seemingly could care less. We've got lots of work to do to keep the pressure up #NoTechForICE. https://t.co/giRYLWf9h8
