Deportation flights tear families apart while airlines profit. Avelo Airlines, GlobalX Air, Eastern Airlines, and Omni Air International make millions from our pain. It's time to #DeICEflights! Add your name: SEIU.org/DeICEflights

Greedy CEOs like Brian Niccol need to PAY UP! Don’t shop at Starbucks while workers like Sylvia stand up for fairness and dignity at work. #nocontractnocoffee

Most people in ICE detention have no criminal history. Why keep them detained? Cruelty, fear, and profit! CEOs of charter flight companies make millions flying people away from their families and communities. It’s time to #DeICEflights.

They want to make an example of David Huerta to scare organizers, immigrants, workers, and politicians into silence. But the example he sets is courage – and we stand united in solidarity for #JusticeForDavid

Actions speak louder than words.

Don’t cross the picket line while Starbucks workers @sbworkersunited are on strike. NO CONTRACT, NO COFFEE!

The shutdown’s over, but the damage is real.
Workers went unpaid. Families lost food aid. Healthcare costs are climbing.
Thune, Johnson, and Trump’s White House caused this chaos.
Working families WON’T FORGET and WE WON’T FORGIVE.🔥🔥🔥

Baristas are saying it plain: #NoContractNoCoffee
SEIU stands shoulder to shoulder with Starbucks workers demanding respect, fair wages, a real contract, and an end to union-busting.

Baristas are on strike. So guess what? Starbucks doesn’t get a dime.

We stand with the workers — not the billionaire brewing union-busting on the side. #NoContractNoCoffee

THIS is what power looks like. Starbucks baristas are standing tall, with their shoulders back and their heads high, and they’re showing the world what it looks like to demand a fair contract.

At SEIU, we see you, we back you, and we’ll be there with you @sbworkersunited.org every step of the way.
BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.

If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.
Starbucks unionized workers say they'll strike on Nov. 13 if coffee giant doesn't finalize contract
Union members say they are ready to strike on the chain's Red Cup Day if Starbucks doesn't finalize a contract with their union by then.

Starbucks knows where workers stand. They know the demands. And 92% of baristas just said: we’re ready to strike.

If Starbucks keeps ignoring them, Red Cup Day won’t be business as usual— it’ll be Red Cup Rebellion.

☕ Stand with baristas. Don’t shop at Starbucks if they strike. seiu.co/NoContract

We made history, Virginia! SEIU members elected:
✅ Gov. Abigail Spanberger
✅ LG Ghazala Hashmi
✅ AG Jay Jones
✅ A 64-36 pro-worker House majority!

Now we fight for collective bargaining, paid leave, and a higher minimum wage. This is a win for all working families!

The math is MATHING and the results are IN. 📈 Working people stood up and sent a clear, powerful message at the ballot box.

Candidates who prioritize workers—like Mamdani, Sherrill, and Spanberger—won BIG.

The power of a united front is undeniable.

Let's keep this momentum!

Native American workers have fought for safer workplaces, fair wages & worker power. That leadership fuels our movement.

Even now, as diversity & representation are under attack, we honor those who paved the way by defending our values & our future.

For every $1 spent in SNAP, up to $1.80 is created in local economic activity.
Cutting SNAP doesn’t just starve families, it starves towns.

🍎Food isn’t a bargaining chip. 🏨 Healthcare isn’t a luxury.

Hunger should never be a consequence of politics.
And people are not pawns in a political game.
42 million Americans’ meals are on the line.

"We need to elect leaders who will do the right thing for working families." Sarah, a home care provider for her father, knows what's at stake. We're fighting to elect pro-worker candidates, like Elizabeth Guzman, who will champion fair pay, healthcare, and dignity for all.
