John, the road ahead is tough, but here’s the thing—people tossed in the mud know how to dig out of the muck. Workers, allies, and coconspirators like YOU are leading the charge, fueling progress in neighborhoods across the country. In this spirit of resistance, help to sustain our work in 2025 and beyond.
Together, we've celebrated major victories across industries and won historic, community-changing campaigns. Regardless of how national politics played out, values like democracy, multiracial solidarity, and economic justice continue to WIN, even in corners of the country written off as too “red,” too corrupt, or too hard to organize.
We need your help to build on this momentum, especially in the South where workers—particularly Black workers—have long been excluded from labor protections. We’ve made huge strides this year like mobilizing a new base of workers through the JWJ South Carolina Solidarity Hub to welcoming our second cohort of Advancing Black Strategists Initiative Movement Fellows and formalizing a partnership with Clark-Atlanta University. When hurricanes battered communities in Florida, Central Florida Jobs With Justice mobilized around workers facing unsafe working conditions in a climate crisis and organized relief for those ignored by corrupt politicians. And 30+ labor, faith, and community organizations, including Jobs With Justice of East Tennessee, rallied in support of the Volkswagen autoworkers in Chattanooga as they became the first Southern autoworkers outside of the Big Three to win their union.
This is the kind of change we demand, and we’re just getting started. We have to think bigger and organize harder. That’s where you come in.
Solidarity forever,
Michaela Winter
