Let’s stand in Solidarity and support our @sbworkersunited.org siblings — which demonstrates power to our airline management too. Don’t shop at Starbucks while workers are on strike. Sign the No Contract, No Coffee pledge and find a picket line near you: nocontractnocoffee.org

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.

Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

We mark Trans Awareness Week by standing with millions of people in America who identify as transgender, gender non-binary, or intersex, and call for all such people to be treated with the respect and dignity everyone deserves.

From military service to aviation’s first responders, we’re celebrating the military union veterans of AFA. Are you a Flight Attendant who previously served? Request an AFA-CWA Veterans Pin from the International Vice President’s office here: docs.google.com/forms/d/1Cmw...

We observe this Veterans Day with deep gratitude for those who have served and those who continue to serve, especially our own AFA member veterans and all of their families who support them. We are honored to fly with our veterans. #VeteransDay

BREAKING: We won!

Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.

“We know what happens when the planes stop,” @flyingwithsara.bsky.social said in a statement. “People won’t get medicine. Packages won’t be delivered. Restaurants & grocery stores won’t have food. People won’t get to medical treatment.”

The FAA announced plans for a 10% reduction of air traffic in 40 markets starting Friday. @flyingwithsara.bsky.social’s statement:

"Safety is not a political game. Recent events in aviation should sober us all and redirect an urgent call to work together to keep Americans safe."

At 35 days, this shutdown is now tied for the longest in our country’s history. This crisis is unsustainable, from health care premium increases, to uncertainty around SNAP food assistance and Head Start centers funding, to increased stress on our aviation system.

Horizon management no-showed negotiations because the federal mediator was unavailable due to the shutdown. AFA Horizon Flight Attendants picketed Horizon HQ to say #ContractNow!

Day 30. This crisis is unsustainable, with health care premium increases, SNAP food assistance running out of funding, and Head Start centers closing, all beginning in the next few days. Here are three things you can do to support our safety, security, and economic stability:

Had a chance to chat with @afacwa.org member @kaela15.bsky.social today. It's absolutely thrilling to have such a great legislator and union leader running for Congress!

Lots of important races out there, but this one is worth your attention and, if you have the means, your money.
Families are working hard, and they deserve a government that has their backs — not one that makes it harder to get by.

Let’s hold those in power accountable and fight for working families this season. Chip in to help us keep up the fight: secure.actblue.com/donate/kb-bl...
