Graciela shares, "I have been working in the fields in Salinas, CA for 20 years. I have worked in many types of harvests. Working in the fields is not easy. We work when it is very hot, when it is very cold when it is raining and when the ground becomes very muddy." #WeFeedYou

“I’m puzzled by the fact that in this moment, Hakeem Jeffries & others are basically saying, ‘Our hands are tied.’ Where is their technical mastery of the rules of Congress and Senate? Even an internal mode of struggle seems absent. That, to me, shows the complete vacuousness of where this has led.”

Sign the petition to demand Mahmoud Khalil be immediately released and threats against his legal status be dropped! And call on members of Congress and university leaders to protect and defend the right for students to organize and protest. sign.moveon.org/petitions/fr...

This is a really good burn but also to a significant degree I think the Dems just agree with a lot of stuff that ordinary people find outrageous and at least some of their apparent incompetence is actually a way for them to have some plausible deniability about their own beliefs.

EWOC is proud to support the workers at NYC's LGBT Center as they unionize and fight for workplace justice. At a time when the rights of vulnerable workers is under attack, the LGBTQ+ community needs public support now more than ever.
