This might just be the cutest lawn sign deliverer I've ever seen! I told her I needed to get a few signs delivered today and she was excited to go with me! So grateful for her kind and helpful spirit! 😍

From 9/15 to 10/15, we celebrate Latinx Heritage Month!

Latinos make up nearly 20% of the U.S. population and bring rich culture to the American story.

As we celebrate, let's also commit to creating a fear-free and more welcoming society for all.

Happy #LatinxHeritageMonth! 🇨🇱

This Labor Day weekend, thank the labor movement & unions that fight for workers' rights! I'm proud that Latinos have been at the forefront of the labor movement for over a century, & proud to be a union member!

After living in WI for 20 years and then 20 years in MN, you made me proud to tell people I was from Wisconsin again. Thank you for your service to our great Badger state!

It’s been 16 years since Congress raised the minimum wage. Meanwhile, folks are out here trying to survive on $7.25 an hour. In this economy?!

I’m standing with my Labor Caucus colleagues to #RaiseTheWage, because $7.25 ain’t cutting it.

Fun Raspberry Festival movie night! It had to be moved indoors due to a storm that came through, but it was still a blast! Great way to roll into the weekend! ⚾
