Colorado should be where families can afford rent, food, and healthcare. And where workers can hope to retire in dignity.
We're reintroducing legislation so workers can form strong unions and make it possible.

Who will stand with us? The Dropkick Murphys came to Denver and jammed with workers fighting for their right to unionize.
Let's stand together for better pay, better benefits and the right to unionize! Your fight is our fight! Pass the #WorkerProtectionAct!

Thanks for fighting, Phil. While you're at it, our state's authoritative labor laws are threatening the voting rights of Coloradans by requiring workers to win TWO elections to form strong unions.
As governor, would you remove that extra election requirement? #copolitics
Free and fair elections are core foundations of our democracy, and I will fight every day for our Constitution and for our democracy.

Today, JBS workers voted by 99% to authorize an unfair labor practice strike. The message to JBS is clear: negotiate fairly for a contract that gives workers the dignity they deserve!

Still waiting on this one @GovofCO

After billions of dollars have been blown on autonomous vehicles (AVs), one thing is now clear: it took hundreds of thousands of years for the human mind to evolve into the greatest computer in the universe, and it cannot and will not be re-created in five, 10, or even 20 years by AI.
Read more about how AV companies are overselling their abilities and why the Teamsters — and the labor movement as a whole — must remain vigilant in fighting Big Tech’s efforts to eviscerate our livelihoods: justcauseteamsters.substack.…

Journalists are being targeted, press access to the White House is restricted and the President is going after news outlets that don’t report favorably on the administration.

"Instead of standing with the people who make this state run, the governor sided with billionaires. [...] we need leadership from people who stand shoulder-to-shoulder with workers..."

"Nurses, janitors, caregivers, and service workers across Colorado won’t forget, and we’re just getting started. Governor Polis may have caved to corporate pressure today, but workers are building a movement that he can’t veto."

All workers deserve a fair shot at joining a union.
Gov. Polis, our entire labor movement is watching: Honor your commitment to workers by modernizing CO’s outdated labor laws.

Gov. Polis is vetoing the Worker Protection Act TODAY, Kyle Clark was right. He is handing his veto pen to wealthy corporations. @kyleclark @GovofCO
