ICYMI, Where could you slash women's political prospects and undercut minority empowerment in one bill and still declare yourself "progressive"? Only you, Massachusetts masspoliticsprofs.org/2024/1… #MaEdu #mapoli

Supporting women would also look like supporting the right of public school educators- the great majority of whom are women- to strike. That would 'protect their opportunities.'

In 2024, Massachusetts was named the best state in the country for Women.
That’s because we’re a state where women can be sure that their opportunities will be protected and their health safeguarded. In Massachusetts, women can lead the way.

Deny the City of Lawrence an elected school committee? How would that work out? "Strangle minority political empowerment and choke off an avenue for women’s political participation in one move. Way to go, progressive Massachusetts." masspoliticsprofs.org/2024/1… #mapoli #maedu

In the course of reporting this story, I didn’t hear from one worker who hadn’t been in some way injured on the job.
“It doesn’t feel like a job that should be legal,” said one Amazon delivery driver. labornotes.org/2024/12/cops-…

“When you think of the holidays you think of spending time with your family, you think of reconnecting. And during peak, all you can think of is sleep.”

Lori Chavez-DeRemer has a 10% on AFL-CIO's legislative scorecard, so kindly stop pretending that the fact that she endorsed a bill likely to secure an endorsement is an indication that she is any way different from her colleagues. It's tiresome.

Retweeting because this article seems to getting under the skin of the people in the president's office at UC. They've already emailed me twice about it!

Some 13,000 @UPTECWA members—research support, health care, professional, and technical employees at the University of California—are planning escalating strikes starting Wednesday.
Pay, lack of time off, turnover are big issues.
