Not a small deal! Union membership at a 16-year high (but union density is another story).
Still, the decline of unions is decelerating, and that’s a necessary step to building momentum and growing our strength in numbers.

Every working-class person deserves decent health care. No one should have to choose between seeing a doctor and putting food on the table. But that’s exactly what our current health care system does.

Imagine going to a city with a population of about 77k, and over 9 thousand (!) people show up to your rally
AOC: Some of the Republicans whose districts we visited just warned their leadership that they’re not sure they can vote for Medicaid cuts now.
We’ve got them on their back foot. But our job is not done.
We will rally every corner of the U.S.
We will not stop until they actually vote no.

Johnson stood firm under fire in defending Chicago’s Welcoming City Ordinance.
“I think we showed the world today what the soul of Chicago represents. Our soul is based on the fact that we believe that no human being is illegal,” he said at a post-hearing press conference.

He probably won’t be popular for this take, but it’s definitely right and not hard to message around
👋Fellow Democrats, the party needs to rethink all the anti-tariff absolutism. I’m a Rust Belt Democrat from swingy Western PA—where lousy trade deals like NAFTA stripped us for parts. Democrats need to break free from the zombie horde of neoliberal economists who think tariffs are always bad. 🧵

Massive encroachment by Bezos into The Washington Post’s opinion section - makes clear dissenting views will not be published
I still have not felt encroachment on my journalism on the news side, but if Bezos tries interfering with the news side I will be quitting immediately and letting you know

Among all the differences between Connolly and AOC, this question alone would've gone so much better.
With federal employers under attack, she would've used her position to agitate workers across the country to organize. You can tell bc she's doing it rn anyways.
Instead, we got... this 😐

Germany going through the same thing as America is unsettling.
In the 40s it was a handful of countries that made the clear fascist turn. But now that’s the rule with few exceptions

In the election today the extreme right AfD gained 3x more support from workers than the SPD.
