Houston has a long history of worker power. In 1967, striking sanitation workers demanded dignity and fair pay laying the groundwork for today’s fights. #HoustonLabor 💪

💬 If a contractor retaliates against workers or misclassifies their wages, they shouldn't build our roads, bridges, or schools. #PublicFundsPublicValues #HoustonLabor

🔥 When wealthy Gulf Coast elites exploited low-wage workers in dangerous conditions, labor organizers out-thought, out-organized, and out-lasted the odds. Their courage still fuels our fight today. #UnionStrong #HoustonLabor

Council of Muscle 💪 Houston’s Industrial Union Council (1948–1957) was more than a coalition—it was a political force. When it merged into the Harris County AFL-CIO, it cemented labor’s seat at the table. #HoustonLabor

🚨 Every 3 days, a construction worker dies in Texas. In Houston, injury rates are 6X higher than federal estimates. This isn’t a statistic—it’s a call to act. Strengthening safety policies saves lives. #HoustonLabor #WorkerSafety
