Reagan changed America by firing 10K+ air traffic controllers. It was the "green light" corporations needed to break their unions.

Trump is doing the same thing here. Remember the union coal miners standing behind him last time? The union steel workers this time? #SlowLearners #RememberPATCO

President Trump committed the biggest act of union-busting in history, stripping nearly 1 million federal workers of their right to collectively bargain & have a voice on the job.

We’re thrilled to see the court block Trump’s retaliatory executive order. aflcio.org/statements/a...
AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler issued the following statement in response to a ruling in American Federation of Government Employees v. Donald Trump, which challenged the March 27 executive order stripping nearly 1 million federal workers of their right to collectively bargain under the guise of “national security”: “In March, President Trump committed the single biggest act of union-busting in history, stripping nearly 1 million federal workers of their right to collectively bargain and have a voice on the job. On Tuesday, a U.S. District Court restored those workers’ voices and their fundamental freedoms while the litigation continues. We are thrilled to see the court block Trump’s executive order—an action that was in explicit retaliation against federal workers’ unions exercising their First Amendment rights to challenge the administration’s attacks on their members. This fight is far from over, but federal workers, the labor movement and our allies have notched an essential victory.”

Keep this post going: The news outlets are oddly quiet about the Amazon/Teamsters strike. Probably bc *krash* patel is about to declare labor unions - and the ACLU as "terrorist organizations"
