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.

Better pay, better benefits, and economic security. Apprenticeships offer life-changing paths into union jobs that lift up communities. During National Apprenticeship Week, we’re inspired by stories like Caroline’s, and the countless lives changed every year in apprenticeships.
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.
AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Fred Redmond joined @lesliemarshallshow.bsky.social to discuss the Louisiana v. Callais Supreme Court decision and its attack on the fundamental freedoms of working people. Voting rights are workers’ rights, and we’ll keep fighting to defend those rights every day.
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.
AFL-CIO President @lizshuler.bsky.social: “Does anyone want to continue on this race-to-the-bottom… where this handful of billionaires, one soon to be a trillionaire, get to play God with our economy and our lives? Hell no! We know we can do better.”
AFL-CIO President @lizshuler.bsky.social: “Every single thing we’ve ever won in this country happened because we fought for it. It happened because of days like today. This is the power. We have the power!”
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.
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.
