  11. I don’t care what #techbros in Silicon Valley think. The 996 work model is modern slavery, nothing less. #Workers have suffered enough already, and now #tech startups are pushing for 6, 12-hour days per week? That’s just nuts. #labor #capitalism #startups #WorkersOverBillionaires #WorkersRights

  12. They're right: when abusive and exploitative employers are held accountable, it makes for a better workplace for all workers: americasvoicecnn.substack.com/ #WorkersOverBillionaires

  13. In Oregon, Melissa Adams echoed similar words of solidarity with essential immigrant workers.

    “Well, there is no time like the present, and it’s important to stand up for workers’ rights and immigrants’ rights, and it’s all interconnected,” she told Fox 12 Oregon, which noted the outsized role that immigrant workers play in the state’s economy. #WorkersOverBillionaires

  14. ICYMI: #LaborDay celebrations remind us that immigrant rights are workers rights.

    “We see these issues of protecting immigrants and protecting workers’ rights as totally connected,” said one Labor Day event attendee in New Mexico:

  16. I was a 'peacekeeper' (read: crossing guard) at yesterday's #WorkersOverBillionaires march, and so was away from the din of chanting (and heckling) for most of it. Overheard a young girl ask her mother why we were protesting. The mom said "they have something they believe in". I smiled at her & she asked me "what do you believe in"?

    The best I could think to say in the moment was s/t like "well, the current people in power in the federal government seems to want to destroy the country, and so we're making sure people know we don't like it.".

    What I *wish* I'd said was that there were powerful people in government going out of their way to persecute people who had no power--to bully them. And we're letting people know that we see what's going on and we don't like it.

  17. “’I do not want a government takeover, a military takeover of Chicago,’ said North Sider Terry McCaskill. ‘How do we come back from that? They've taken over the capital. We're the only ones standing in the way of dictatorship.’” cbsnews.com/chicago/news/chica #WorkersOverBillionaires

  18. “ … it’s important to stand up for workers’ rights and immigrants’ rights, and it’s all interconnected,” said rally attendee Melissa Adams: kptv.com/2025/09/02/protesters #WorkersOverBillionaires

  19. During today's #50501 #WorkersOverBillionaires rally a speaker from a "red state" detailed a harrowing experience on protest suppression, including the use of police surveillance. How great it is #Seattle is in a blue state?

    Except that Seattle's police have been stepping up surveillance, photographing protestors, and unleashing chemical weapons since summer of last year. And next week, the Seattle city council -- made up entirely of #Democrats -- will vote to expand city surveillance.

  20. #Unions, #community groups join forces for #LaborDay #protests against #Trump and #billionaires

    Tens of thousands of people expected to hit the streets for a protest over Trump, billionaires

    by Sarah D. Wire, September 1, 2025

    "Labor unions and community activists are gearing up for mass protests on Labor Day hoping to remind Americans of the power of the #WorkingClass at a time when billionaires are playing an outside role in national politics.

    "More than a thousand '#WorkersOverBillionaires' events are planned nationwide in big and small cities on Labor Day and the surrounding days. in an effort to keep the momentum going from other mass demonstrations and keep pressure not only on President #DonaldTrump, but also the billionaires who support or benefit from his administration.

    " 'It’s important to show that there is opposition to the Trump-billionaire agenda in every community big and small, it’s not just cities that are united against what’s happening… it’s all towns, it’s small towns that voted overwhelmingly for Trump,' Saqib Bhatti, executive director of Action Center on Race and the Economy, told USA TODAY. 'It’s very important to show the opposition is there in all these places.'

    "On Aug. 28 the White House did not respond to a request for comment on the protests. Instead, it provided a quote from Vice President JD Vance about Democrats not voting for the GOP tax and spending bill and a quote from White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt's press briefing about Labor Day.

    " 'President Trump believes that American workers are the heart and soul of our economy and our national identity, which is why he’s championed an agenda that puts them first always,' she said. [BULLSHIT!]

    "The events, which are locally organized and tailored to local concerns, are led by labor organizations, including the #AFLCIO, national #advocacy groups such as #MayDayStrong, #PublicCitizen and #Indivisible and dozens on local advocacy groups. Some began late last week, others will continue throughout the first week of September."
