“We proposed an expiration date [that] allows us to strike on May Day. We invite unions to align their contract expiration dates with our own […] If we’re going to truly take on the billionaire class […] it’s important that we not only strike but strike together” @ShawnFainUAW

Every candidate endorsed by UE150 won their election. Working-class voters showed up to elect champions who answer directly to public service workers rather than corporate interests.
Now it is time to enact a working people's agenda!

THIS is now the craziest story I've ever written for Labor Notes. UFCW Local 8 staff reps are stalking a dissident candidate for office, chasing him across California, in the union's first ever competitive local elections. I wonder what they have to lose? labornotes.org/2026/11/refor…

CHICAGO PARKING TEAMSTERS LAUNCH ULP STRIKE
Nearly 1,200 members of Teamsters Local 727 have launched an unfair labor practice (ULP) strike against parking operators throughout the Chicagoland area, citing widespread labor law violations and bad-faith bargaining. The strikes come after members overwhelmingly voted down the companies’ disrespectful “last, best, and final” offer.
The employers bargain collectively through the Chicago Parking Association under the Master Parking Agreement. Local 727 has filed or is preparing ULP charges alleging refusal to bargain, failure to provide information, unilateral changes to working conditions, retaliation, and unlawful surveillance.

The American people spoke loudly and clearly on Tuesday. The new Democratic majority cannot continue the same old, same old establishment policies.
Working families want change, REAL change, and that’s what Democrats must deliver.

If Democrats don’t figure out how to end plant closures these districts are just going to flip back to red in 2 years
Job security is the biggest issue for millions of blue collar workers, and neither party has a serious answer besides begging and bribing corporate America

Brother Scott Houldieson changed my life. He welcomed me into a ragtag group of UAW reformers, asked me to step into a leadership role, & lit the path for us to change our union from the inside. He’s going to do the same for Indiana—I can’t wait to call him Senator Scott! 😭

I’m sorry but this is actually the biggest story of the night.
Scott is a Ford worker out of Local 551 who was instrumental in reforming the UAW, winning direct elections in the union, and electing Shawn Fain
The best working class politics story of the night
Resharing these AOC book recommendations, no reason, at all, whatsoever: “I was just gifted a book that I’m about to crack open called Boss Lincoln. It’s about the lost years when Lincoln was building a political machine before he ran for the presidency.“

From HR and union busters coming for the shop floor leader in the Auto Zone United UAW union drive to Haley Stevens coming for Abdul, the thing about coming for an actual leader is, the movement responds. And not the way union busters and Haley Stevens anticipated:

Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026).
