@aflcio.orgReposted by @nyclabor.bsky.socialShit’s too expensive. Our paychecks are flat while billionaires and CEOs bring in record pay and bonuses.
We need elected leaders who will stand with working people and create an economy that works for us. Join us: betterinaunion.org
@aflcio.orgReposted by @nyclabor.bsky.socialIt’s worrying that safety researchers at OpenAI were fired last week. Tech workers should be able to report concerns without fear of retaliation. Big Tech CEOs can’t regulate themselves. That’s why we need whistleblower protections and a real voice for tech workers.
@aflcio.orgReposted by @nyclabor.bsky.social8% of households are going hungry. 16% of adults can’t pay all their bills in full. 26% skipped medical care due to costs. ALL while billionaires rake in record pay and bonuses. This economy isn’t working for us. Let’s vote to change that.

@aflcio.orgReposted by @nyclabor.bsky.socialWorking people should not have to accept “bad things” from AI that could impact our lives. We can’t let Big Tech billionaires regulate themselves. That’s how we got into this mess. We need real AI guardrails to protect our jobs and rights.
@aflcio.orgReposted by @nyclabor.bsky.socialWorking families nationwide are all saying the same thing: Shit’s too expensive. Groceries, rent, utilities, gas - everything is skyrocketing. This economy is broken. This November, let’s send pro-worker candidates to Congress and create an economy that works for all of us!

@aflcio.orgReposted by @nyclabor.bsky.socialOur wages aren’t keeping up with inflation. Prices on everything are skyrocketing. We’re all living on the edge while billionaires and CEOs make record profits. The Trump economy is not working for working people.
