The unofficial results from the TA (terrible agreement) have come in. It’s a shame that with an combined membership of 10k members, only 2,800 members decided to vote on their livelihoods. But with the low morale and do nothing union Misleadership, we understand the low turnout.

Who is the CTA actually for? Last week we learned that the CTA can run a nearly full operation…when there are thousands of delegates and political leaders in town. Not for everyday Chicagoans.
Follow along as we explore recent CTA service delivery data. (1/9)

Empty staff positions at CPS = Overcrowded classrooms and inadequate student support. 🧵
Next year’s spending plan includes saving $220 million through vacancies. The teacher’s union and some parents say it incentivizes the district to leave positions open.

Please help the Public Rail Now Campaign raise the balance of the funds needed (just another $3250) to produce an hour long feature video that answers the question: "Why should the rails in the U.S. be publicly owned?" conta.cc/3W6lHAK

Dorval Carter loves to write Bull 💩Letters discussing his "appreciation" for employees instead of improving the working conditions, giving us the employees who make the system run real safety, proper tools & equipment, bathrooms, 2 person crews and the list goes on......

RWU is proud to announce “Putting America Back on Track,” a groundbreaking paper advocating for a public rail system. Authored by Brown University Scholar Maddock Thomas, it highlights the failures of the current system, from inadequate staffing to the detrimental effects of PSR.

ALT Grad workers line the hall to the bargaining room holding signs that say “fair pay now” and “UNM workers because we do”
ALT Grad workers yell and chant as they march through the halls of the administration building. They hold signs that read “UNM works because we do” and “I wish I could afford food”

The CTA is being destroyed. But it is not by people who “don’t want to come to work.” It is being destroyed by cruel people who mismanage it—from the top-down. @JusticeTransit @ctaaction @fixthecta_CDSA @DorvalCard @CTAexposed @ATUComm

He has the audacity to say critics are calling for his firing because he is the first African American President at CTA, yet he treats his majority Black employees like shit EVERYDAY. Firing his own left and right... WE NEED REAL BLACK LEADERS, NOT PUPPETS
