Together the Trump Administration and the Post Master General have plotted to STEAL the #2020Election through #votersuppression through the vote-by-mail process. And because of these attacks on our democracy, the @NAACP is taking the #PostMasterGeneral to court #DeliverDemocracy

Uber and Lyft will suspend service in California on Friday, after a court ordered them to treat drivers as employees. That would have given drivers access to benefits like sick pay and a minimum wage. In court, the companies argued drivers aren't essential to their business.

BREAKING: 1.1 million Americans filed *new* unemployment claims last week, an increase of 135,000 from the week before. This is a red flag that layoffs remain high. 28 million Americans were receiving UI benefits at start of August --when Congress let the $600/week aid expire

Stemming from under representation, discrimination, lack of managerial/executive support for growth, various levels of micro-aggressions, and so much more at the workplace - we must advocate for Black women to earn #equalpay and to work in a safe space.

Today is Black Women’s #EqualPay Day - meaning Black women had to work all of 2019 and this far into today to earn what white men earned LAST YEAR.

While we celebrate that this is the first week, in a 20 week span, that new UI claims were under 1 million, we must also focus on the restoration of job and health security across the US.
