@smartunionworks, you and your union members may think you're alone, but believe me, MANY eyes are on what you decide to do on December 13th.

Your pay, your benefits, your value, and your rights have been challenged, and we noticed.

We stand with you and your #RightToStrike

For those who are unaware, Congress and the White House are terrified of a rail union strike because it would cripple the US economy and cause transportation/logistics to break down.

Despite that, Union Pacific refused to grant additional paid time off for workers.

In response, The White House has made it illegal for rail workers to strike in the face of what it calls a national emergency.

The Union Pacific Railroad has the money & resources to grant these benefits but refuses to do so out of greed, not necessity.

While HTF pays very close attention to the stock market, we pay greater attention to issues of social equality & the growing wealth gap.

The WH chose to stand on the side of the rail company rather than the workers who drive the engines of the US economy

The US has recently experienced the greatest transition of wealth from the working class to Wall Street and the 1% wealthiest in America, even after the staggering losses in the stock market since January 2022...

Retail continues to lose...

If you are paying attention to what the market is doing, there is a great pause that has just occurred as thousands wait on the outcome of the rail union's address to Washington on December 13th.

We should be fully prepared to experience the unrelenting rage of the labor unions

Because if they stop working...
The. Economy. Stops. Instantly.

Railroads and trucks are like the blood cells of this country, carrying precious oxygen: raw material, food, staples, fuel, and goods.

A strike is like a heart attack for the nation.

Let that sink in.

These are people. Not robots.

They deserve just pay,
healthcare and dental benefits,
and the right to be with their families.

Their right to strike is protected by the 1st Amendment to the US Constitution.

Any resistance to it is a violation of their constitutional rights.

There is no factual or moral basis for putting the profits of the railroad companies above the needs and rights of their workers, or the millions of Americans their work affects, and the goods they deliver to the four corners of the nation.

Defend their #RightToStrike
