As everyone Gov wide is being forced back to the office. Please remember, you can always cause some safe chaos by calling the local fire marshal and repot your building at over capacity.

Labor Dept seeks 90% staffing cut from federal contractor watchdog A Labor Department employee says that it would be an “almost impossible” task for 20 investigators to audit and oversee all federal contractors. federalnewsnetwork.com/agency-overs...

May ramp up oversight of unions? may?? Unless the budget guts that entire office, you bet your ass they will. That's the objective: destroy everything that stands between them and more 💰💰💰

WTAF. You can't make this up.

Update to the update to the update: it's no longer for sale? This is like A/B testing but with human lives. Constant spaghetti throwing. What will stick on the wall? Who knows! 🍝

Workers covered by the National Labor Relations Act are afforded certain rights to join together to improve their wages and working conditions, with or without a union. Here is some information on your rights, provided by the @nlrbgov.bsky.social: aflcio.org/formaunion/r...

Even in states with limited or no collective bargaining rights, joining a union strengthens educators' voices, enabling them to fight for better pay, improved working conditions, and stronger public schools.

Mush is celebrating but we can still fuck shit up. ATTN feds: DO NOT provide access to any data without clearance from your leadership and legal. If a DOGE stooge communicates with you via email, copy everyone. If they drop by your desk or ask in a meeting, make them put it in writing. #LFG #altgov

💯 #SafetyFirst Proud to be a part of the pack! We are vetted and ready to rumble. #LaborOmniaVincit #AltGov

Mr. "Racist Before It Was Cool" Marko Elez has an official DOL email address. How did we get stuck with the normalize Indian hate dude?? Miles Collins and Aram Moghadassi from DOGE also have DOL email addresses. Anyone want to send them some love?

For those wondering about the background of #altgov, please read how it all knits together. See more at #altgovstories. We are not the deep state. We are not disseminating state secrets. We took an oath that never expires— #altgov is always of the people, by the people, for the people. #resist

Ffs. We also just found out that GSA put the Frances Perkins Building up for sale. Where we gonna go? (That's the point, we know, we know 😤)

We love our vets at @dol.gov and couldn't get the job done without them. 🇺🇸 The work they do helps millions of Americans... and this is the thanks they get. Daily insults from the administration. FOR SHAME, ALINA.

DOL employees hired as remote workers in the National Capital Region AS A CONDITION OF THEIR EMPLOYMENT were just told they have to come back to the office by March 23, with few exceptions.

Fun fact: DOGE is claiming $26M+ in savings from terminating the lease for the Bureau of Labor Statistics office space in D.C. But BLS has been planning a move to the Maryland suburbs since before the pandemic.

Thanks, @aflcio.org. Glad to make it to another 🎂. After 112 years, we're not going away without a fight.

Good read: Two former @dol.gov leaders on why companies shouldn't abandon DEI initiatives (and how to do DEI right).

These people are sick. www.reuters.com/world/us/rem...

hold the line

We will stand up to any billionaire threatening workers’ jobs, and fight for the public services that working people rely on every day, including the Postal Service.

Dumbasses. You want DOGE to get their hands on all the data at @dol.gov, from safety inspections to wage investigations to workers' comp claims to highly sensitive economic indicators? No? Call your senators.

They're going after our right to organize with coworkers -- protected activity under the law -- because they're afraid. They know we're stronger together and they'll do everything they can to divide and conquer. #resist www.eenews.net/articles/tru...

Of those who took the fork at @dol.gov (about 1 in 20), we can tell you no one wanted to. They're afraid the administration won't hold up their end of the bargain. Some were facing horrible commutes and a lack of childcare. Some were close to retirement. It's not how anyone wanted to go.

HOW WAS YOUR FIRST DAY, ADAM?? GET A WARM WELCOME?? HOW'S ELON? WHAT DATA DID YOU ACCESS?
