- Air travelers and airline workers have won the fight on aviation safety. The TWU led the charge on behalf of our members and the American families that travel by air. People must always come before profits. #GroundThe737Max
- President Samuelsen asserts there is an incestuous relationship between the @FAANews and the airline industry which is potentially dangerous cnbc.com/video/2019/03/… @afa_cwa @AlliedPilots @AMFANational
- The Transport Workers Union wholeheartedly supports @ILAUnion dockworkers and their right to strike to secure the wages and job security they deserve. They are taking a stand against corporate greed and we are with them 100%. @TwuSamuelsenBREAKING: Dockworkers on East and Gulf coasts hit picket lines in strike that could bring higher prices and shortages of goods. apnews.com/article/port-s…
- The unacceptable chaos at @SouthwestAir is a reflection of SWA leadership. Bosses repeatedly fail to listen to TWU concerns, leaving our members w/out fair contracts & now they are stranding 1000s of passengers during the busy holiday season. Blame the bosses, not the workers.
- Thank you @BernieSanders for standing with us during this contract campaign and for always fighting for workers!Congratulations to the members of @transportworker union and @MachinistsUnion for this great victory. In our administration, we will double union membership and help more workers win the dignity they deserve. forbes.com/sites/tedreed/…
- To be clear, @lyft is choosing to suspend service in California rather than provide its workers with the protections and benefits they deserve under the law.BREAKING: Lyft will suspend service in California after ordered to classify drivers as employees cnbc.com/id/106671743
- Thank you so much @SenSanders for your support of @AmericanAir workers in our fight to protect USA jobs and the safety of air travelers!I support the Transport Workers Union in their struggle against American Airlines. This is what a strong union and strong union leadership is about:
- Public transit is meant to connect people to opportunities for advancement. @PeteButtigieg's plan to prioritize transit funding would help create good jobs and make safe and efficient public transit work for everyone.
- 🚂🚂🚂 TWU Amtrak on-board workers just won the largest raises in @Amtrak history, with wages rising 34%. “Amtrak workers are a critical part of our nation’s transportation system. This contract advances their economic security and includes quality-of-life wins” @TwuSamuelsen
- Congratulations to the more than 5,000 JetBlue Inflight crewmembers on their overwhelming vote for Transport Workers Union of America representation!
- Un-American Airlines disrespects all of their workers. Offshoring jet mechanic jobs to potentially dangerous foreign countries and degrading Flight Attendants are two glaring examples. forbes.com/sites/tedreed/…
- Thank you to @SenSchumer and @RepAOC for leading the fight to get these benefits out to working families for nearly a year.
