It’s great to see @BetoORourke introduce a plan to give millions of working people the power to negotiate higher wages, better jobs and brighter futures for our families. #UnionsForAll
.@BetoORourke’s plan includes multi-employer sectoral bargaining, wage boards, and all healthcare jobs funded by Medicaid and Medicare as good, union jobs
That’s 2 new detailed plans in the past 24 hours responding to workers demanding #UnionsForAll. Now it’s time for the rest of the presidential candidates to explain how they will empower millions more workers to unite in unions

The Trump administration just released a rule that will affect roughly 800,000 #homecare workers, telling them what they can and cannot do with their own wages. Please follow along as I explain why this outrageous rule will hurt all of us. 1/
9 of every 10 #homecare workers is a woman and more than half are Black or brown. Women who have been fighting together in their union for decades to come out of the shadows and to win living wages, training & basic benefits like paid sick time. 2/ vox.com/policy-and-pol…
The rule is a transparent, political attempt to make it harder for #homecare workers to speak up together and as a result, for seniors and people with disabilities to find and keep consistent quality home care. And this demand is growing every day! 3/ time.com/5529152/elderl…
