It's time once again to take a look at the ways working people are making progress in the states. Click on any of the links to follow the state federations on Twitter.
California Labor Federation:
Uber, Lyft and Doordash are spending $189,000,000 to write themselves out of labor law. Prop 22 is designed to keep drivers POOR and App-based rideshare companies RICH. Enough with the corporate greed! Make sure you vote #NoOnProp22!!! pic.twitter.com/1TzTEVWPva

Connecticut AFL-CIO:
In CT, the median penalty assessed by OSHA for a workplace fatality was less than $4,000. This is unacceptable. @AFLCIO #1u https://t.co/QW7FdimOBg

Florida AFL-CIO:
“In Miami, it’s very difficult to make it on $275 dollars a week,” said Gonzalez, referring to Florida’s unemployment compensation payment. The federal boost of $600 per week is gone. “It’s basically impossible to survive with that money.”https://t.co/Q7k8BA4JfA

Georgia State AFL-CIO:
We’re past due for relief but @sendavidperdue and @SenatorLoeffler still can’t do what is morally required 8 months into the pandemic. Georgia’s working families deserve better. #HEROESActNow #Labor2020 #1u #unionstrong pic.twitter.com/f7Z3vXvu6w

Indiana State AFL-CIO:

Maine AFL-CIO:
Pretty sleazy that the Collins campaign is taking credit for ending the strike at BIW. The truth is, she refused to get involved, while taking tens of thousands of dollars from BIW executives in the lead up to the strike. https://t.co/Q54yVkDeRS #ShadySusan #FakeNews #mepolitics

This shouldn’t be a hard question - yet they’d rather play politics than keep people healthy & safe. https://t.co/DavQIwwMpU

Missouri AFL-CIO:
Amendment 3 is not reform, it's a trick. The politicians behind Amendment 3 know they can't win if voters learn what's in the fine print of their plan. We are voting #NoOn3. pic.twitter.com/A5S49Jb1mQ

New York State AFL-CIO:
Agricultural workers in NY only earn overtime when they work more than 60 hours/week while workers in other industries earn overtime after working 40/week. Rectifying this inequality is a matter of human rights, dignity in the workplace & basic justice.https://t.co/xvdZkKldxa

Jim Justice now follows Mitch Carmichael’s lead and supports Right to Work? That’s not what he told us 4 years ago when he was begging for our endorsement. The choice is now even more clear: Vote @BenSalango ! #wvpol #righttoworkiswrong
