SUMMARY:Labor Day Bus Shuttle Tour
DESCRIPTION:Metro Baltimore’s unions are headed to a workplace near you this Labor Day! \nWe’re taking our celebration on the road with a shuttle tour across three counties in our region. We’ll be stopping at job sites\, meeting workers where they are\, and lifting up the stories and strength of our union family. It’s a day to celebrate the labor movement — not from behind a podium\, but alongside the people who power our communities every day. \n\nRiding with us will be union affiliates from across the council\, allies\, and possibly a few elected officials who want to witness firsthand the impact of union work on the ground. The day will be full of energy\, connection\, and movement as we travel together in solidarity. \nThis year’s theme — Freedom\, Fairness\, and Security — reflects what we fight for on and off the job. It’s a reminder that every worker deserves dignity\, every voice deserves to be heard\, and every community thrives when labor is strong. \nWhether you’re joining us for the full ride or meeting us along the way\, we hope you’ll be part of this moving celebration of solidarity. Let’s honor our past\, show up for the present\, and build power for what’s next. \nIt’s time to raise our voices and build power with workers who are the backbone of our country. \nWill you join us on August 28th?  RSVP here!

SUMMARY:Rally Against Mayor Bowser's 'Big Beautiful Budget'
DESCRIPTION:D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has proposed spending nearly $1 billion in D.C. taxpayer money to help the Commanders build a new RFK stadium\, plus nearby planned hotels and restaurants. Unfortunately\, she also wants to discontinue D.C.’s project labor agreement (PLA) law\, gutting what has been accepted public policy for more than a decade.  \nJust two years ago\, the D.C. Council voted to lower the PLA threshold from $75 million to $50 million. Her proposal would result in fewer good union jobs at D.C. construction sites and make it easier for shady contractors to commit wage theft. \nJOIN US Wed. June 18 in calling for an RFK stadium deal that includes a commitment to good union construction jobs and high-quality hospitality jobs at the stadium and at future hotels and restaurants near the RFK site.
