I keep thinking about the fact that "nearly one-third of the adult working age population [in the US] has a criminal record."

With numbers like that, this isn't a problem of individuals. This comes down to what our society calls "crime."

With as many criminal convictions as college degrees, it's more evident than ever why "ban the box" laws are important for the economy.

Trump doesn't care that his deployment of the National Guard is dangerous — but the governors deploying these Guard members should.

We're calling on Governors Ivey, Kemp, Landry, Reeves, DeWine, Lee, and Morrisey to recall their Guard members from DC. Email all seven: bit.ly/seven-governors
Text reads: "The National Guard doesn't belong in DC. Send a letter to the seven governors putting their Guard members and our communities in harm's way. bit.ly/seven-governors"

Starbucks knows where we stand. We’ve been clear: more take-home pay, better hours, & resolution of 100s of ULPs.

Bring us NEW proposals that address these issues so we can finalize a contract. Until then, we'll keep escalating. See you on the picket line!

National Guard members do not want to be used as political props. They want to be home with their families. The only person who wants them here is Trump.

Police killed three people in DC last week and now this. When will this administration stop escalating and putting people in harm's way?

Violence is never the answer and must be swiftly condemned by all.

The National Guard are volunteers. They sign up to leave their jobs and families at a moment’s notice to serve their country.

This is a heartbreaking day for DC and our nation. My thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones.
