Rev. Jesse Jackson brought communities together with a simple, powerful truth: the fight for good jobs, living wages and union rights is inseparable from the fight for justice and equality. Watch AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer @STRedmond reflect on Rev. Jesse Jackson’s legacy:

The labor movement grieves all those who were killed in the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001—including more than 600 members of our union family—and urges leaders to take the necessary steps so first responders and survivors can continue to heal. aflcio.org/press/releases/af…

AFL-CIO Secretary Treasurer @STRedmond joined the @Steelworkers for their 2025 Constitutional Convention yesterday, where he laid out the stakes for this moment in the labor movement and how workers must remain united in solidarity and assert their power against billionaires.

AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer @STRedmond is right. Trump’s executive order gutting collective bargaining rights for federal workers is about billionaires trying to destroy what the labor movement has fought for generations to build. We will fight this attack on our members.

Jeffries: "The average Social Security recipient in the United States receives about $65 a day in benefits. Elon Musk in his contracts with the federal government gets about $8 million a day. If they were really interested in waste, fraud, and abuse, they would start there. But they're not, so they're going after grandma."

The Democratic Party must become an anti-establishment party ready to fight the moneyed interests and shake up the system on behalf of the vast majority of Americans. It's time for Democrats to learn this lesson.

A judge has ordered the Trump administration to reinstate thousands of illegally fired probationary federal workers! America’s unions will never stop fighting for working people.

The working class of America is fed up with a system where CEOs make 238x what workers make. We don’t have to accept the current state of our country.

Firing half of the staff so that the Department of Education cannot function will jeopardize the resources, programs, and protections that give millions of students the opportunity to succeed.

Working people deserve a Department of Labor that works for them. We will stand up to anyone trying to harm working people. That starts with @DOGE.

Elon Musk’s unaccountable DOGE has no place in the Department of Labor. Working people built this country. We won’t let a billionaire harm the very agency meant to protect us.

This election is the clearest choice we’ve ever seen in a presidential race. A 78-year-old with 34 felony convictions, two impeachments, and a long history of racism. Or an accomplished leader with experience at every level of government. – My take on @BET #BlackMenSummit
