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.

Be like the barista kitties: organize, mobilize, demand better and win. That’s the power of our solidarity!
Registered Apprenticeships are the best earn-while-you-learn opportunities to gain the skills needed to build your community and have a life-long, family-sustaining career, just like Nia, who, after an @ibewinternational.bsky.social apprenticeship program, has a rewarding career in the trades.
The SCORE Act is a union-busting bill that would diminish the voices and job protections of college athletes. College athletes are workers, too. They put in unmatched effort so schools can rake in millions. Congress must reject the SCORE Act and protect athletes’ NIL rights.
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.
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 ✊
Workers at ProPublica went on strike yesterday to send a message: it’s time for a fair contract! Solidarity with @propublicaguild.org as they fight for AI guardrails, workplace protections, fair wages and a pro-worker ProPublica.
Now more than ever, we need a strong and united global labor movement that can challenge the power of a few billionaires over the rest of us. The labor movement is mobilizing to build worldwide solidarity and fight for economic justice for workers everywhere.
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.
The Senate Banking Committee cowered to Crypto Super PACs over the interests of working people by passing the CLARITY Act and exposing our retirement savings to volatile cryptocurrency. If this bill heads to the floor, we urge senators to stand up for working people and vote NO.
🚨 THEY DIDN'T JUST DEFEAT THOMAS MASSIE. They made an EXAMPLE out of him. For years, Thomas Massie was one of the loudest voices against foreign wars, endless money printing, and government secrecy. He pushed for the release of the Epstein files. He opposed sending Americans into endless Middle
This week, Senate Democrats will force a vote on another War Powers resolution… “…Because returning to full war will just compound the suffering of Americans troops and the American citizenry who are suffering under a very, very devastated economy” —@kaine.senate.gov

Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis and his efforts went unrecognised for 50 years. Then, in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he had rescued, who were now adults. Original post

AI can improve speed, workflow, and data analysis in healthcare. But experience, intuition, and clinical judgment built through years of patient care are still incredibly difficult to replace. #AIinHealthcare #ArtificialIntelligence #HealthcareInnovation

🤡 Geopolitics feels like a bad comedy. Iran threatens Ukraine for drones, forgetting they’ve attacked us with Iranian drones from day one! Meanwhile, Trump lifts sanctions on Russia—the one supplying intel to strike U.S. bases. 🤦♀️ The only peace plan? Defeat & demilitarize Russia
New trucking authority owner. Zero revenue history. Can't get equipment financing. I hear this story every week and every week I say the same thing: Card stack first. Here's the play: Get $50K-$100K at 0% interest through card stacking. Put it toward your truck purchase or down payment.

Tom Adelsbach So yesterday Trump posted a video of him crashing Stephen Colbert's final show and literally throwing him in the garbage, and of course, I had to FIX it.
Cool video of the Artemis II Orion capsule separating from the European Service Module. This footage is from the GoPro HERO4 Black cameras installed on the ESM's solar arrays. The wobble in the second shot is from the jolt imparted to the ESM as Orion separates. Credit: NASA

Rep Lieu (D-CA) with a brilliant breakdown of the SAVE Act. Trump and MAGA Republicans know their policies are crushing the working class but instead of changing those policies they want to disenfranchise voters. Americans say #NoPayToVoteSAVEAct Democrats need to hold the line.
Video shows a seaplane making an emergency landing on a Phoenix roadway after engine trouble. The pilot managed a fairly smooth landing, missing utility lines and traffic lights.

Encore une séquence raciste qui n’intéressera pas l’Arcom. Qu’est-ce que les musulmans viennent faire dans les débordements de jeunes gamins mal élevés hier soir après le match Bayern - PSG ? Il a vérifié si tous ces gamins étaient croyants ou pratiquants ?

Ah, I love the gardening style (it closely resembles mine 😎) We too have cats and hedgehogs, one visited just now and entitled some of the cat food I leave out for it. Once upon a time we even had a nest!
Waiting for the government to tell you what your own eyes already saw? 🤡 You might need to lick those boots a little harder to get the full flavor of the narrative. 🥾👅 Every day feels like we’re living in a State of Emergency. #FolkMusic #ProtestSong #Songwriter #Appalachia #WV
No one should be shot for exercising their rights. Renee Good and Alex Pretti, U.S. citizens killed by ICE agents in Minneapolis, should be alive today. As Police Chief O’Hara says, “people have had enough.” We need accountability NOW. Sign our petition to hold ICE accountable. Link in reply.
In rural Alberta, firearms are a way of life for work, for hunting, and for sport. Law-abiding owners have always followed the rules, yet Ottawa’s bans target them instead of tackling crime. Bonnie wants laws that respect safe, responsible firearm use. #OurHomeOurRiding #BattleRiverCrowfoot
