Illinois voters officially ban Right-to-Work and added several other worker protections in the Illinois Constitution.
Union apprenticeship programs are the bachelor's degrees of the construction industry. In Illinois, they deliver training hours, graduation rates, diversity outcomes, and competitive earnings that rival public universities. #NationalApprenticeshipWeek #NAW2022 #ApprenticeshipWeek
It's official: Illinois voters approve changes to the state constitution to enshrine collective bargaining rights and ban future efforts to implement Right to Work policies. With 2,113,534 votes in favor, there is no longer any mathematical path for the amendments defeat.
Tonight, Illinois voters have spoken. Congratulations, Illinois. You are and always will be a workers' rights state.
In Illinois, voters have the chance to create a state constitutional right to collective bargaining – enshrining labor rights in the state constitution. It’s a no-brainer – vote YES on IL Amendment 1. h/t @ILWorkersRights businessinsider.com/illinois-amend…
The Illinois Policy Institute is sending text messages to people in an attempt to discredit this @KSDKNews story. Their texts misconstrue the report, which clearly spells out how we know they’re just making things up to scare people. Hint: they admit it. ksdk.com/article/news/v…
YES for Workers’ Rights and YES for @JBPritzker and @JulianaforLG.
WORKERS' RIGHTS FACT CHECK: Anti-worker organizations are spreading lies about the Workers' Rights Amendment impacting taxes. But their own data shows they aren't telling the truth. MORE ➡️ chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/202…
SEE FOR YOURSELF | Special interests are using scare tactics and spreading misinformation, but the language of the Workers' Rights Amendment is crystal clear. Here's exactly what you'll see on the ballot — see for yourself ⬇️
Anti-worker special interests are spreading lies, but nonpartisan news outlets have confirmed the truth: the Workers’ Rights Amendment has nothing to do with taxes. Vote yes for higher wages, more safety protections, and a stronger economy for all! #VoteYesForWorkersRights
FACT CHECK: "We can verify the passing of Amendment 1 does not guarantee a property tax increase. There is no language in the amendment regarding property taxes." #VoteYesForWorkersRights! ksdk.com/article/news/v…
Early voting has now expanded across Illinois! Don't wait — vote YES for the Workers' Rights Amendment today! #VoteYesForWorkersRights
"Here, you don't have student loans that you have to pay back. You're getting paid to learn a trade." UA Local 5 showed the folks at @CBSSunday what a UA apprenticeship is all about – and it sets you up for a lifetime of success. Watch the segment: cbsnews.com/video/trade-se…
Thank you @UAPipeTrades for the endorsement. In Congress, I won't work for the political party or an elected leader, I will work for the hard working men and women here in #IL17.
Proud to be with so many hard working Illinoisans for an old fashioned rally. Thank you to to Plumbers Local 130 UA for hosting. Now let’s get out and vote #yesforworkersrights!
It's official: After more than 70k UA members made their voices heard, @USDOL will officially rescind the anti-worker IRAPs rule on Monday – a massive win, ensuring our gold-standard registered apprenticeships remain the best in the industry. dol.gov/newsroom/relea…
