Thanks to the hard work of letter carriers and postal workers, the U.S. Postal Service delivers half of the world’s mail. It’s older than America itself! We’re not going to let billionaires dismantle the Postal Service so they can make even more money on our watch.

Whether our work is on the rink, in the classroom, or on the factory floor, every worker deserves a voice on the job and the power that comes with union membership. Welcome to America’s unions, NHLPA and PHPA 🤝 www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/...

Catholics engaged in politics should note that Church teaching underlines a duty to promote the common/shared good of humanity as a whole. It also emphasises a duty to live "in a spirit of peace, respect and solidarity with other nations" (St. John Paul II).

And to LOSE a language is to lose a world, a culture. Ireland is a case in point - just one irreversible, catastrophic outcome of our colonial history. In these more prosperous times, our past experience should forge solidarity with those who continue to suffer oppression, wherever & whenever. 🇮🇪
