11/01/2022
Tweet - "I stand in solidarity with @CCWUnited workers striking at Maximus call centers today. If Maximus can afford to pay its CEO 208 times his median worker and spend $2 million on "bonuses" to cross the picket line, it can afford to pay workers a fair wage."
10/14/2022
Tweet - "Let me congratulate the Apple Store workers in Oklahoma City for voting to become the 2nd unionized Apple Store in the US. Last year, Apple made a record $95 billion profit. Its billionaire CEO made $99 million in 2021. It's time for Apple to treat its workers with respect."
10/12/2022
Tweet - "I stand in solidarity with Teamsters Local 320 at the University of Minnesota in the fight for better wages & working conditions. If UMN can afford to pay its president over $1 million and give her a 22% raise, it can afford to pay its workers a minimum wage of $20 an hour."

Tweet - "It's no accident that 71% of Americans have a favorable view of unions the highest since 1965, while just 36% hold a favorable view of corporations the lowest since Wall Street crashed the economy in 2008. The American people are sick and tired of corporate greed."
09/06/2022
Tweet - "Congrats to Minor League baseball players for a huge and swift show of support for forming a union. The MLB and Commissioner Manfred should voluntarily recognize the union immediately and bargain in good faith."
08/25/2022
Tweet - "If Howard Schultz, the Starbucks CEO, who is worth $4 billion can afford a $145 million, 254-foot super yacht with a helicopter pad, you know what? He can afford to negotiate a fair first contract with Starbucks workers who voted to form a union in over 230 locations in America."
07/14/2022
Tweet - "Let me congratulate the Starbucks workers in South Burlington for successfully voting to form the first unionized Starbucks in Vermont. In just 8 months, workers in over 160 Starbucks shops have voted to form a union for better wages, benefits & working conditions. Keep it up!"
07/12/2022
Tweet - "On #PrimeDay, let's not forget. Amazon blamed "inflation" on a 17% price hike in a Prime membership after its profits soared 450% since the pandemic to a record $38 billion while avoiding $5 billion in taxes, spending $4 million on union busting & denying workers paid sick leave."

05/23/2022
Tweet - "No government -- not the federal government, not the state government and not the city government -- should be handing out corporate welfare to union busters and labor law violators."
