OSHA announced yesterday that it has published a new poster required to be posted in workplaces. Why? Because they care. But the new poster leaves off a lot of important information that workers need to protect their health and safety & use their OSHA rights. jordanbarab.com/confinedspac...

Ronald Silver was 36 years old and father to five young children. His death was hideous, agonizing, completely unnecessary. Dying on a strangers front porch because you cannot cool off in time or get water on the job- in a democratic state no less- is beyond shameful.

The San Carlos Airport, a hub for Silicon Valley business travel that lies along the approach to San Francisco International Airport, will no longer have air traffic controllers guiding planes in and out of the airport starting on Saturday, according to airport manager Gretchen Kelly.

The airport's controllers resigned, she said in a news release, after the Federal Aviation Administration changed air traffic control contracts to a firm with lower pay that does not take account of the region's high cost of living.

"Understandably, all current controllers have declined (the new) offers," according to Kelly, who said that the FAA denied a request to provide temporary staffing.

Keep your messaging simple: “Trump fired everyone in charge of airplane safety, and a week later planes started crashing into each other.” That’s it. That’s the messaging. Don’t get bogged down disputing Trump’s false claims. Just blame him, in short and repeatable sentences.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Trump and his advisors are high on their own supply after getting away with so much in their first week. But they are going to regret this one. It’ll devastate red states that rely on this money for basic programs that keep people fed, clothed, alive. A huge unforced error politically and legally.

Good morning. As weeks inch by more and more post resistance. National union people I respect strategizing survival and strength, especially the first 2 -3 rough months. Reconnecting w/friends, supporting food banks, researching blue communities. Reinforcing shared values. Getting ready.

I know this: the key to survival is connection. Of course our individual despair, grief, disappointment, and deep protective cynicism fertilizes isolation, and isolation feeds disempowerment and despair. The key is connection. The challenge is maintaining it.
