We need a mass mvmt to end racist policing — to put police under control of democratically-elected community boards with full power over department policy, hiring and firing. We demand an end to the violent “hotspot policing” that Dem politicians have embraced across the country.

Passing @cmkshama 's bill would generate huge momentum for strong rent control & put a spotlight on Democrats in WA State, who have shamefully kept in place a statewide ban on rent control for decades. 29 states have similar bans. We need to overturn these bans everywhere.

Varun from @cmkshama office explains: while workers were buckling under 10% inflation, bosses made record profits last year. Capitalism has failed working people! Now that the economy is in crisis, they’re still trying to put it on the backs of workers w layoffs-we need socialism

Workers have watched as the wealth of the billionaire class skyrockets at our expense. We need unions to defend ourselves, because the bosses won’t be happy until we are working day and night for next to nothing. So what kind of unions do workers need?

This flows directly from Bernie’s decision to stay within the Democratic Party, which fought viciously against him & his agenda in his runs for President. Biden has carried out huge attacks on workers. Still @BernieSanders , @AOC & the Squad are doing backflips to cover for him.

Working people urgently need unions. That's why Workers Strike Back is calling to unionize every workplace. We need strong, democratic unions w/ accountable leadership to win big victories. What we don’t need is business unionist leaders who fail to fight for strong contracts.

For example: 78% of Kroger workers can’t afford groceries. The CEO makes $20 mil/yr. Kroger's profits: $4 bil! These are UFCW members. @UFCW leaders have not done what it takes to fight back. Many of these leaders also make far more $$ than members they're supposed to represent.

Bernie & AOC have been worse than silent. 2 weeks ago, @AOC held a rally for Biden in Las Vegas. Last week, @BernieSanders reaffirmed support for Biden & his train wreck of a campaign, scolding voters about “maturity” This isn’t a grand progressive strategy — this is betrayal.
