    Under California’s Worker Adjustment Retraining Notice Act (WARN), employers are legally obligated to notify affected employees AND state and local representatives 60 days before a mass layoff.

    Update: Twitter has now terminated the contract employing the striking union janitors who had been working at Twitter HQ in San Francisco. More to come.

    A massive strike authorization vote is taking place for 48,000 academic workers within the University of California. The sheer scale of this vote’s impact is immense - around 10% of all postdoc workers in the USA are in the UC system.

    Let's just be honest. Voting against a $15 minimum wage is voting for trapping millions in a desperate state of perpetual poverty. You can't call yourself pro-worker if you bail when workers need you most #RaiseTheWage #FightFor15

    We’ll be honest, we didn’t have “a pro-union Twitter account run by a cat goes viral” on our 2022 bingo card, but we couldn’t be happier to have Jorts spreading the word about organizing! If you don’t already, FOLLOW @JortsTheCat and Jean! #UnionStrong cnn.com/2022/02/17/bus…
