The United Farm Workers, along with the entire labor movement, stands in strong solidarity with our comrade, labor leader David Huerta. We demand his immediate release and condemn indiscriminate sweeps targeting working class immigrants.

The Trump administration’s disturbing pattern of arresting and detaining American citizens for exercising their right to free speech and protest is not only sickening—it’s a blatant abuse of power and a stain on our democracy. David Huerta should be released immediately.

EVERYBODY WATCH. ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL. Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today. He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader. Don’t turn away.

🚨 Armed agents in tactical gear. Flash-bang grenades. So-called 'less-lethal' weapons". All used on peaceful protesters in LA demanding dignity for immigrants. This is what a police state looks like. This is what happens when cruelty becomes policy. We must speak out.

Born and raised in Los Angeles County, David Huerta is a champion for justice and a good neighbor. Today, while advocating for his community during an ICE raid, he was injured and arrested. These raids are dangerous for our families and communities. They are unjust and must end.

David Huerta must be released immediately to heal and begin a full recovery. David and all working people have put their bodies on the line for far too long to fight for justice and protect our communities. Violence has no place here.

📢 ACTION ALERT: As many of you have likely seen ICE is conducting a series of raids in the Los Angeles area. Things are moving quickly some locals already have folks in the field. David Huerta was just arrested in SoLA opposing the raids. We have to show up for our siblings!✊🏾

Want to know what else is buried in the GOP budget? A 9.4% pay penalty—for new federal workers who want to keep basic rights, like due process. Can’t pay? You’re made at-will: fired anytime, for any reason—or none at all. No explanation. No protection. It’s a tax on democracy. seiu.co/3TahhaH

Our families will miss weddings, funerals, and their final goodbyes. Children will grow up separated from grandparents. People will be denied life-saving medical treatment. This is what Trump’s travel ban on majority Black and brown countries means. #NoTravelBan

We are saddened by the passing of our dear friend, Luisa Blue. She was a fierce advocate for working people and the first AAPI leader elected to serve as an Executive Vice President for SEIU. We send love to her family. May she rest in power.💜

Organizations claiming religious exemption to get out of providing the most basic worker protections is just wrong. When workers lose their jobs, they need support to get by. Denying that help in the name of religion goes against the basic values of compassion and care that most faiths are built on.

If you think slashing Medicaid or the ACA only hurts ‘other people,’ sorry to break it to you—you’ve been duped. Call Congress and urge them not to make any healthcare cuts: 866-426-2631.

From coast to coast, working people showed up in solidarity to demand the release of our union sibling, @seiu925.bsky.social Lewelyn Dixon. We joined her family & community in welcoming her home– right where she belongs. We won’t stop until all unjustly detained immigrant workers are free.

Outside Senator Joni Ernst’s office today: tombstone-shaped signs reading “GOP Cuts Kill.” Because when Republicans in Congress gut Medicaid, real people suffer. And Ernst doesn’t seem to care. #HandsOffMedicaid

Over 800,000 rideshare drivers in CA—1 in every 24 CA workers—just got one step closer to the right to unionize. The CA Assembly passed #AB1340, giving gig drivers the right to unionize & collectively bargain for better pay and working conditions—a major victory toward fairness in the gig economy.

Imagine working hard, paying taxes, and supporting your family, only to be told you have two months to leave it all behind. That’s exactly what this administration has just done to thousands of our Cameroonian friends and families. We won’t stand for it.

Exactly! The richest 1% don’t need a nine-figure tax break—working families need relief. While billionaires cash out, everyday people are struggling to pay rent, buy groceries, and stay healthy. We need a tax system that works for the many, not the millionaires.

When even Elon Musk calls your bill an abomination…maybe it’s not the “big, beautiful” masterpiece you think it is. Trump’s plan guts Medicaid, gifts billionaires, and still balloons the deficit. That’s not “great again”—that’s a disaster.

The Trump administration is slashing Job Corps—a program that helps marginalized youth build careers. Young people who are already pushed to the edge by poverty, classism, and lack of opportunity—across race and background—are being targeted. Meanwhile, prison funding is going up. seiu.co/3FH5kWP

Republicans want to justify their proposed budget cuts for vital programs and services, including Medicaid. But we won’t let that slide. There’s NO good excuse to rip healthcare and affordable housing away from millions of children, seniors, and people with disabilities who rely on it.
