Dolores Huerta was one of the greatest organizers to ever live, using her influence and powerful voice to fight for those who were most vulnerable to exploitation and greed. She will forever be missed, but her spirit lives on in all of us.

4 days until Election Day. Our work doesn’t stop at the jobsite. Good union jobs, fair wages, and a secure retirement are worth showing up for. Make your plan to vote by Nov. 3 and remind a Brother or Sister to make theirs.

Hey @SenatorCollins! So you & your elitist buddy @billgreensmaine don't think working-class people can serve in the U.S. Senate? Well we've got a message for you.

You told yourself, "Oh I have plenty time!" when early voting started on the 17th. You didn't go on the 21st when you saw the giant tents in the grocery store parking lot (the ice cream was going to melt). Fair. You didn't go when you went to return your overdue books at the library on the 25th because you were late to feed your cat and she goes insane when you're even 5 minutes late. Fair. Now it's the last day. It's Friday, you have time between work and the cocktails waiting for you at the bar. Celebrate Nevada's birthday by casting your ballot on the last day of early voting! GET IT DONE TODAY, NEVADA!

83% of union members are “extremely motivated” to vote. The @AFLCIO has already reached 16 million+ union voters in key battleground states/districts to turn that enthusiasm into votes. Working people are ready to elect pro-worker leaders. We’re leaving nothing to chance.

Let’s elect leaders who don’t think our lives are a joke, and who will actually fight to make this economy work for working people. Betterinaunion.org
Q: How do you expect us to start families young when the average price of a home feels out of reach? JD VANCE: I want to point out that I've only gotten one question about Jon Husted's ass

In 2024, almost 80% of Alaska union members voted, compared with about 60% of the general public.  When union members show up, we decide elections. Early voting is open through Monday. Election Day is Tuesday, November 3. Let's finish strong. 💪🗳️ #AlaskaVotes

If Pope Leo can vote early, so can you! miaflcio.vote
NEW: Pope Leo XIV is set to become the first sitting pontiff in the Catholic Church’s two-thousand-year history to vote in a secular election. Leo requested an Illinois mail ballot on Oct. 3, and it was sent to his brother John’s home in New Lenox, Ill. John Prevost visited the pope at the Vatican on Wednesday and may now be carrying the ballot back to the Will County clerk by hand. thelettersfromleo.com/p/pope…

Working people trust @TroyJackson207 because he is one of us. A union member. A logger. A worker who has fought to make ends meet. And he will stand with workers, not billionaires. Maine: make your plan to vote: betterinaunion.org/vote
I’ve been in this fight my whole life. Don’t ever let them make you feel powerless. When working people stand together, there’s nothing we can’t do. Today is the last day to vote early. Let’s go win this thing, Maine.
