🎥 #WATCH: @GPBrentBooker on the federal budget reconciliation bill: "The current version of the bill? There’s some good things in it. "But this bill, in it's current form, is gonna take away almost 3 billion work hrs & 1.75 million #construction jobs."

☀️ Happy #FirstDayofSummer, Brothers & Sisters! With a #heatwave next week: • Remember your heat stress prevention training • hydrate, Hydrate, HYDRATE & • Work safe (especially if you're not acclimatized) Check out Laborers' Health & Safety Fund of North America's article on UPF clothing: lhsfna.org/sun-protective…



Always a treat to watch Tyler Ankrum work! And thank you to him & Bill McAnally Racing for making it a special day for our brothers and sisters watching from the stands! 🏁

🥵 #Heatsafety Alert—National Weather Service projects dangerous hot temps region-wide this week. Work Safe: • Wear loose, light clothing • Wear sunscreen • Stay #hydrated: 8oz water every 15 min • Avoid caffeine/soda/alcohol • Use personal cooling items (cold packs, headbands) • Find shade





👷♂️ Think of your #DavisBacon Wages as a #construction minimum wage based on area standards. Changes to how that minimum wage is calculated—like using BLS-Labor Statistics stats, instead of U.S. Department of Labor's current 3-step process (that counts our total package)—could mean deep cuts to your paycheck.




🗣️ LIUNA VP Mike Hellstrom with some #WednesdayMotivation out of the NYS AFL-CIO // #UnionStrong Cornell ILR School #reunion: "I live by a creed that if they want it, they should f*****g fight me for it. And so I'm going to say I'm ready for the fight." More: ilr.cornell.edu/worker-institu…
