According to a report by Progress Michigan, The Mackinac Center for Public Policy was behind a $10 million, national campaign to keep workers from organizing. Don’t let them stand in the way again. Say no to union busting. #SayYestoHomeCare adobe.ly/48SAseN

BREAKING: @McDonalds workers in LA have walked off the job after being punished for taking our legally acquired paid sick leave. We’ve also had our hours cut for acting collectively. If our bosses are trying to threaten us, it won’t work. We’re doubling down on solidarity.

YUM Brands (Pizza Hut operators) made $1.3B in profit in 2022. The idea that wage increases MUST be passed on, or result in layoffs is nonsense. Paying workers more is not the issue. It is corporate greed. #RaiseTheWage

Back in 2020, we won a pathway to $15/hr in Florida. While the wage keeps rising there, the Florida state government has turned a blind eye to enforcing that wage! This is why we need elected officials to join us in demanding an end to wage theft! bit.ly/3ruhcEN

Text reads “FLORIDA’S MIN WAGE Rises, but wage theft still Rampant: Florida workers won a pathway to a $15/hr min wage in 2020, but FLORIDA still lacks any enforcement of the minimum wage. IT remains a state with one of the highest minimum wage violation rates in the country.“

A picture of striking fast food workers in California and a quote from Sergio Valderrama, a McDonald’s worker, that reads “This bill is a very impactful change for us because we will make more money, be able to help our families and have a seat at the table where we can talk about things that happen at work that need to change, like management abuse.“
