A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

Higher wages for underpaid workers.
Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
Better and fewer working hours.
Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Publicize and solicit more donations.

Of all the unsung heroes of our modern infrastructure, Wabtec is the backbone of the rail industry's most important safety equipment.....the air brakes.

These workers need support, and the work Wabtec does is all because of what their workforce does. Without the Wabtec workers, we don't have North American commerce.

Shit like this makes me wish unions could just fire CEO’s and other management.
