Collective bargaining means stronger families, stronger communities, and a stronger VA economy. We need a CB bill that includes ALL workers, including higher education AND home health care workers. Faculty need CB too - read: drive.google.com/file/d/1ItRS...

Collective bargaining for faculty = fair treatment = job security = protection from political interference = a fearless faculty pursuing the truth = a world-class education for Virginia's students π―π―π― @donscott757.bsky.social @vasenatedems.bsky.social @vademocrats.bsky.social

Today, the VSU Fired Six brought the fight to the Virginia Capitol to advocate for higher ed workers to be included in collective bargaining legislation so that VA workers can be empowered to negotiate for workplace protections so illegal terminations without due process end.

The US and Israel are bombing Iran. Anyone reporting it as βpreventiveβ is engaging in propaganda, by definition. There is no interpretation of whatβs happening as anything else than a crime.
You donβt have to like the Iranian regime to understand why this is bad.

Well over half of VA profs are untenured and many struggle to pay the bills. This is 2x true for our adjunct profs. As Prof Letiecq says, our working conditions are our students' learning conditions! When we struggle, they struggle. We need collective bargaining NOW!

The future is uncertain for some Virginia farmers after VSU researchers fired
The school says the firings are part of restructuring its agricultural research unit.
THIS IS WHY faculty, staff, and graduate students need collective bargaining rights and a wall to wall union. Virginia State fired six beloved profs with no notice and no due process. A union forces admins to be just and fair! www.vpm.org/news/2026-02...

Congress will vote to lower the age to prosecute minors as adults from 16 down to 14 in DC.
Let me get this straight:
Congress wants to prosecute 14 yr. olds as adults, but they donβt want to prosecute adults who sexually abuse 14 year olds?
