My friends and coworkers put together a name-and-shame campaign on my behalf because UFCW Local 2013 retaliated against me for unionizing my workplace (a staff union) and sticking up for workers too much. Donate if you can, the road to reinstatement is a long one. gofund.me/e9d1667cc

if a job can be done entirely remotely, and a company still requires employees come into the office, the Company is unnecessarily causing strain on public utilities. so in addition to there being a higher minimum wage for those workers, the companies should also be required to pay an additional tax
