67% of Oregon AFSCME members surveyed have faced violence, threats, or trauma on the job. Understaffing & lack of safety measures are putting workers at risk. It's time for action. Oregon needs to pass SB 24 & SB 606 to protect frontline workers! #orleg buff.ly/43cdxvs

While PDX officials are focused on transitioning the form of gov't, they can't forget about the people who show up every day to do the actual work. The greatest gift this council can give our soon-to-be elected leaders is the gift of labor peace. #orpol bit.ly/3Uokt3K

When union workers are under attack, what do we do? Email PSU President Cudd and ask for justice for IELP faculty and academic professionals and for a retraction of her misleading and inaccurate depiction of our union to the campus community #HigherEd actionnetwork.org/letters/em…

During the pandemic, #AFSCME family childcare providers kept their doors open over incredible odds for low-income working families. We agree w/ @GovTinaKotek @DanRayfield @RepLisaReynolds that keeping childcare doors open must be top priority for #orleg. oregoncapitalchronicle.com/2…

We are heartbroken to lose one of our own, especially when this loss was preventable. Cascadia employees have long been raising concerns about the safety of working shifts alone. This tragedy highlights the need for safer working conditions for our behavioral healthcare workers.
