They're on the front lines working to protect our #union, our voice, our vote & OUR DEMOCRACY!

BIG investment. BIG UNION WIN! After years of hard work and advocacy by LIUNA Local 79 and the Mason Tenders District Council, a $607 MILLION renovation of NYC’s Nostrand Houses is moving forward! The project will modernize more than 1,100 apartments, improve living conditions for thousands of New Yorkers, and create opportunities for good-paying union jobs. THIS is what happens when we fight for investments that put working families AND union Laborers first. #organizeordie #victory #LIUNABuilds #whenwefightwewin #construction

Good UNION jobs don’t just happen. We fight for them! In the latest #BookerBreaksItDown, GP Booker heads down to the South Florida Everglades, where Local 1652 Laborers are restoring the Everglades and hundreds of good union jobs are being created through a Project Labor Agreement. That’s why PLAs matter. That’s why elections matter. Watch the latest episode and remember, our voice at the table starts with our vote. ELECTION DAY is November 3. Know your polling place. Make a plan. Get out and VOTE ORANGE! #LIUNAVotes #GOTV #vote #solidarity

Municipal elections are over. The hard work of delivering for our cities is not.
LiUNA members show up in every season to build the roads, homes, transit and infrastructure our communities depend on. Elected leaders must match that commitment with action by working together to cut red tape, get projects moving, create good jobs and make decisions that put communities first.
That work demands collaboration. City hall, labour, industry and community partners must work together to turn commitments into results and build cities where people can live, work and thrive.
The public has placed its trust in you.
Now it is time to deliver.
Let’s keep building.

Don't let ELECTION DAY catch you off guard! Know what identification you need BEFORE heading to the polls. Voter ID requirements vary by state, so take a minute to check yours and make sure you're prepared for Tuesday, November 3. Be prepared. Know the rules.
VOTE! #LIUNAVotes #GOTV #vote

Don’t like what’s happening in our country with millions losing healthcare and ICE tearing our families apart?
Claudia, @32BJSEIU member, is here to remind us that voting is how we make change. When we vote, we win #MoneyPowerRespect!
