😬 Organizing Amazon Should Be a Priority for Labor Globally

Illston has said she believes the evidence will ultimately show the #MassFirings were #illegal & in excess of authority.
The #Trump admin has slashed #jobs in #education, #health & other areas it says are favored by #Democrats. The admin has also said it will not tap roughly $5 billion in contingency funds to keep benefits through #SNAP flowing into November.

The American Federation of Government Employees #AFGE & other #labor #unions have sued to stop the “reductions in force” #MassLayoffs, saying the firings were an #AbuseOfPower designed to punish #FederalWorkers & pressure #Congress.
Lawyers for the government claim the district court does not have the authority to hear personnel challenges [which is bullshit].

Did you know there's a Labor & Unions Mastodon Starter pack? Check it out!
Got suggestions? I promise I didn't leave anyone out on purpose, just let me know who I'm missing and I'll be happy to take a look!
#Unions must ask their members if they believe in a #generalstrike in support of #federalemployees and against the decimation of #healthcare as an appropriate response to a self-dealing and lawless administrative #anarchocapitalist coup.
@Mannanan that is the most ignorant and/or intentionally anti-union take I've seen today.
Hold the bosses responsible. They're the ones holding the power in these dynamics. The #unions are just asking for what they deserve - a fair piece of the economic activity for which their #workers are the primary driver!

I had the pleasure of watching Cory Doctorow @pluralistic on Granville Island in #Vancouver! Thanks for visiting!
We had our share of shade thrown towards a #BritishColumbia -grown Harper cabinet member. But otherwise, we were a receptive audience to Cory's notion that #solidarity and #unions are the greatest source of our power to counteract enshittification. Plenty of allusions to the #Fediverse throughout.
Seven Million Turn Out for “No Kings” Protests Nationwide. Next Up, Massive Disruptions Backed by Unions?
People from across the country marched. Now what?

On NRT: Strike day - https://norightturn.blogspot.com/2025/10/strike-day.html
Big ups to everyone who stayed away from work today in solidarity with the joint strike in support of NZ public service workers;
Shame about the weather in the southern half of the country forcing the cancellation of many of the planned public rallies. But all the more reason to hold a series of them after the weather settles.
