Thank you, @MassGovernor @MarjorieDecker @MBTA @MassDOT @Massport for standing up for workers. PLA’s don’t just build projects on time and on budget, they also build opportunity and strengthen our community.

Thank you, @MayorWu, @BHA_Boston, our @GBLC Siblings and all of friends in the community. The Toy Drive is one of our favorite holiday traditions and we hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season.

We wouldn’t be where we are today without @MetroBTC, our presenting sponsor. Your guidance and support have enabled Building Pathways to accomplish our mission of bringing under-represented communities in Greater Boston into the union construction industry for the past 14 years.

Unions prepare apprentices not just for jobs, but for careers, and we are so proud of the important work MA Girls In Trade does to connect women in high school vocational programs to our apprenticeships. @Mass_BTU @MetroBTC
We’ll always stand with working families — and we’ll always champion women’s right to go after any job they choose. The trades offer great careers with good pay and benefits. Awesome to join the Massachusetts Girls in Trades Conference and women building the future of our state.

"Unchecked AI on jobsites is a recipe for stress, fatigue, and danger. When people are afraid to slow down, we increase the risk of accidents. No schedule should come before safety. We're not anti-tech, we are pro-safety, pro-dignity, and pro-worker" - Chaton Green, @MetroBTC

Forming a union gives workers a stronger voice and the power to fight for their fair share. Better wages, better benefits, stronger health and safety protections on the job and more—it’s ALWAYS #BetterInAUnion!

Honored to join colleagues in gov’t and MA union members to support striking sanitation workers who demand respect and a fair contract. It’s time for @RepublicService to get back to the bargaining table and negotiate in good faith with the hardworking members of @Teamsters25.

The heat didn’t stop unions from rallying to say HELL NO to Waymo. We told Beacon Hill to reject reckless industry bills that would fast track driverless cars in MA. Instead workers support S.2393 and H.3669 to build safeguards for our communities. @UFCW1445

Today we joined @MayorWu at Madison Park HS to sign a historic Project Labor Agreement (PLA) to provide state-of-the-art training facilities for our students in Boston, and advance the lives of workers and their families here in our city.

The ripple effects of this PLA will be felt for decades creating stable pathways to home ownership, to save for the future, and building stronger, safer communities. This is how we fight inequality, not with words, but with work. With opportunity. With good union jobs.

This PLA is smart policy for our city. This is justice for multiple generations. And this is what it takes when we say Building a Stronger Boston. Thank you on behalf of the Boston Building Trades Unions."
