Oh we know! What is “American Federation of Labor?” Thank you to Jeopardy!, which had an entire category last night about union history. The AFL and CIO unified in 1955 to build even more worker power across the country, and we’ve never looked back since ✊

We’re at the most important fork-in-the-road moment our economy has faced in 100 years. Let’s put working people first in our AI policies and build a better economy and future for all of us.
Voting rights are workers’ rights. When working people have a real voice at the ballot box, we can elect leaders who protect our right to join a union, ensure safe workplaces, live free from discrimination and retire in dignity. The Supreme Court has undermined workers’ voices.
A fair tax system should reward work and deliver for the working people who keep this economy running. The labor movement has been fighting for tax fairness from the very beginning, and we’ll keep fighting until billionaires and giant corporations finally pay their fair share.
There is no worker or industry that AI and new tech don’t or won’t touch. Every job is now a technology job. At the Workers First AI Summit, working people came together to chart a path forward for an AI future that respects workers’ rights and protects our jobs and freedoms.
CEO pay rose 20x faster than workers’ pay in 2025. Top CEOs already make 285x what workers do—and they’re fed up. Working people don’t have to accept this. A union contract is how we take back our power and get our fair share of the profits WE create.
Happy National Apprenticeship Week! Registered Apprenticeships are the gold standard of job training programs. This week, we’re celebrating apprenticeships and how they put working people on the road to good-paying, family-sustaining union jobs that lift up entire communities.
AFL-CIO President @lizshuler.bsky.social joined America’s unions and @sanders.senate.gov today on Capitol Hill to deliver a message: the race to advance AI with no guardrails for workers is reckless. Workers need a voice at the table to decide their futures and how AI is used in their workplaces.
Every job is now a technology job. But Big Tech Billionaires shouldn’t get to decide who wins and who loses in this new economy. Working people need AI guardrails and a strong voice on the job to make sure THEY are in the driver's seat to define this new tech future.

Betrayal felt like an end, closing doors on relationships I valued. 🚪💔 But it redirected me to stop wasting energy on those not truly mine. When people reveal themselves, believe them. Now, my circle is smaller, but the light is brighter. 💡 Remember: You didn't lose them; you found yourself.
Both Trump and Iran need a deal. Even short of war, the ceasefire is putting too much pressure on the US economy and the GOP's political prospects. And Iran needs to translate the outcome of the war into much-needed sanctions relief. Both will lose if a deal is missed.

53 years ago, a Supreme Court decision protected reproductive freedom and ensured everyone access to safe healthcare. Although Roe v. Wade has been overturned, our belief remains the same. Everyone should have the right and the autonomy to make decisions about their body. The fight will continue.

I woke up very early this morning to news of “major combat operations” in Iran. My prayers are with our service members and their families. The President didn’t make the case or come to Congress. We took an oath to defend the Constitution. It’s time for a War Powers vote.
