California farm workers will strike for citizenship and basic human rights from Wednesday to Friday of this week.
Please spread the info, and if you can, please consider donating to the organizations that support the workers. I'll post those next.

Okay, the California farm worker strike is happening this week from Wednesday to Friday-- a trial run, I would think, considering the court verdict today ending "roving patrol" ICE raids. (We will see whether it does or not, I guess.)

In the meantime, we can support the workers by spreading information about the strike. They explicitly said before this that they want people to help raise awareness.

Very important matter to keep an eye on today: #California farm workers will be announcing the dates of a strike for citizenship and basic human rights. We will want to support their efforts and also be aware of the effect on food prices, which will mean more difficulty for many in our own communities nationwide. Obviously, it's got to be done, but the more of us who support the workers and each other, the less pain all around.

Union jobs provide economic and class advancement over generations. That's why billionaires and their Republican minions are so desperate to kill them.

#HakeemJeffries has passed the 7 hr mark. He has discussed how #unions & #CollectiveBargaining shaped his own life & reiterated #Democrats’ commitment to unions.
The #OneBigBeautifulBill act harms working Americans in many ways, just one of which is #unlawful #fees on Justice & Unions – it imposes a $350 fee on federal employees to file appeals w/the #MSPB, & charges unions for official time—despite being legally mandated.
