ICE is kidnapping our neighbors, and our students are watching. This week, masked federal agents targeted community members, detaining at least ten people and violently attacking protestors—including public officials—who dared to speak out. These acts of cruelty are not

The militarization of policing is classic authoritarian behavior. All citizens, of any political persuasion, need to speak up and oppose the fed govt’s misuse of federal military power to silence dissent. What happened to all those “freedom loving” GOPs?

What happened to David Huerta on Friday is an attack on all of us who believe in the fundamental American right to stand up for justice, and speak out for the rights of workers. Solidarity events are taking place Monday, June 9: actionnetwork.org/event_campaign

Today is Flag Day! As we celebrate the American flag and all it represents. For union members, it's also a day to reflect on the freedoms and rights that allow us to organize, bargain collectively, and fight for a better future for all workers.
