Okay, I finally did it, I started a Labor & Unions starter pack. I'm sure it's incomplete, so help me out, tell me who I'm missing!

(If you're on the list and want to be removed, I apologize, please tell me that as well. It does respect discoverability settings but I realize that's not everything.)

Update. "As #Universities Yield to #Trump, Higher Ed #Unions Are Fighting"
insidehighered.com/news/facult

"Many college and university presidents have kept silent. But unions representing higher ed employees have stepped up to the plate. They’ve protested in Washington, D.C., and on their campuses, organized open letters and filed a flurry of lawsuits against the Trump administration. Union leaders say they are filling a void in an existential fight for higher ed’s future. They wish others would join their resistance, but their unified strength in numbers may protect their members from federal retaliation in ways that higher ed officials aren’t."

Just had a breakthrough in therapy.

And if this country thinks it’s going to eliminate #Unions you have another thing coming.

I just got the ball rolling to become a union steward.

Here is what is happening: First they are coming for the federal unions—the lowest hanging fruit, the most bureaucratic unions, the ones barred from striking. Then they will proceed to come for all public sector unions. Then they will come for private sector unions. Understand that the transparently bullshit nature of the justification for this move— “Uh, everything is national security, therefore #Trump is king over you”—

for those wondering about #Wisconsin, two words: #LABOR #UNIONS

here’s tangential mini-thread i wrote about how Wisconsin was one of the big stories of 2011 during the #ArabSpring and how without Winconsin’s #Walkerville, there would have never been a #Bloombergville nor an #OccupyWallStreet.

and wanna give a special shout out to Wisconsin’s teachers’ unions; who relentlessly took on the Koch brothers and won.
