Dear Friends,
 
Every day — and especially on Labor Day — we honor America’s workers and the unions that built America’s middle class. The middle class has a union label on it. And the middle class is the backbone of our Democracy. Labor unions built our country’s ladders of opportunity — with values of community and dignity that bind us as Americans: we are all in this together.

Since the current occupant of the White House barged back into office in January, his Administration has waged a direct and illegal assault on the rights of workers. This anti-union, anti-worker attack has stripped away collective bargaining from hundreds of thousands of our public servants, including those who care for our veterans — many of whom are veterans themselves.

Washington Republicans have shown us exactly who they are — they voted to strip health care and food aid from more than 20 million Americans and pushed policies that are making it harder to afford groceries, gas and other everyday essentials. While giving billionaires massive tax breaks that will add trillions to the national debt. To put it plainly, Democrats are on the side of America’s working families — and Republicans are on the side of Donald Trump and their billionaire donors.

Hardworking Americans need a Congress that works for them — not against them. That's why the 2025 and 2026 elections are so critical. Working together in solidarity, we will fight for good paying jobs, for collective bargaining and for dignity at work and in retirement.

Together, we will win critical elections in 2025; we will take back Congress in 2026 to put a legislative check on Trump and his minions; and we will defend our Democracy.

We don't agonize — we organize! And we unionize!

Happy Labor Day,
NANCY
