  16. If enough of us #organize we can build a fighting union movement that can push back against bad laws, mean legislation and those that want to keep us quiet, compliant and unorganised.

    #RAFFWU has demonstrated that retail and #fastfoodworkers are not unorganisable. Workers in these industries are more than ready to put up the fight against some of the biggest companies in the country.
