At the Capitol on Tuesday morning, Our Revolution members,
essential workers, and union leaders held a nationally
live-streamed press conference
( [link removed] )
to call Congress to pass the Protect the Right to Organize Act
- a sweeping labor reform bill that overrides so-called
“right-to-work” laws, gives labor rights to gig workers, and
cracks down on union-busting by bosses.

RSVP for our Monday Organizing call to hear more from Sara on the
PRO Act! ( [link removed] )

The PRO Act passed the House later that day, and we’re now
pivoting to push every Democrat in the Senate to stand with
America’s workers!

★ ★ ★

The PRO Act now joins the Raise the Wage Act, the For the People
Act and other transformative bills that will die on the Senate
floor unless we kill the filibuster.

That’s why Our Revolution is hiring organizers in Arizona and
West Virginia to hold Senators Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema
accountable to unrigging the Senate rules so we can advance our
progressive priorities!

Mondaire will join us on our Monday Organize to Win call - RSVP
now! ( [link removed] )

Our Revolution Alabama’s Eric Hall joined our Monday Organizing
Call
( [link removed] )
to report on our work to support Amazon warehouse workers fight
back against a ruthless anti-union campaign. Amazon reportedly
spends $10,000 a day on anti-busting consultants who flout
federal labor laws. Meanwhile, it receives billions of dollars’
worth of federal contracts for everything from web services to
staplers.

That’s why Eric’s local group kicked off a new campaign to call
on the President to stop giving our tax dollars to union-busters.

“Our tax money should not reward union-busting companies like
Amazon,” Eric said. “With the stroke of the pen, President Biden
can ban anti-union companies from receiving lucrative federal
contracts.”

This week, Our Revolution Executive Director Joseph Geevarghese
told NBC News
( [link removed] )
that the Fight for $15 is far from finished. Democrats
campaigned on it, low-wage workers need it, and a majority of
Americans support it. Even Josh Hawley and major corporations
declared support for $15. "I think for Democrats to settle for
anything less than $15 is political suicide, given the moment,"
he said.

That’s why Our Revolution is organizing to demand Congress raise
the wage in the second budget bill that will be taken up later
this year, and also calling on President Biden to issue an
executive order to withhold lucrative federal contracts from
corporations that refuse to pay a living wage.

Nina Turner, who is running for Congress in Ohio, joined our
Monday Organizing Call
( [link removed] )
on International Women’s Day, reminding us that all the issues
we fight for are women's issues. Referencing the Alabama Amazon
workers - the majority of whom are women - she said, “From
challenge comes change, and we must challenge to get the change
we want to see.”

Our Revolution Ohio members are going all-out to elect Nina. So
far, we’ve recruited nearly 1000 volunteers and made over 50,000
calls!

VOLUNTEER FOR NINA!

California State Rep. Miguel Santiago joined our Monday
Organizing Call
( [link removed] )
to discuss CalCare - a bill which would set up a universal,
statewide single-payer system. CalCare would guarantee healthcare
as a human right for the nearly 3 million Californians with no
health insurance. Rep. Santiago, a co-author of the bill, called
it “the most important fight in this decade in the state
legislature. And we know if we can do it in California, we can do
it across the country.”

CALIFORNIA SUPPORTERS: Tell your Representative to vote YES on
CALCARE AB 1400!

to raise taxes on the wealthy to fund investments in jobs,
infrastructure, and education. State Rep. Robyn Porter also
joined the call to talk about her initiative to legalize cannabis
in an equitable way by making sure minority communities receive
licenses to grow. The proposal would also allow workers to
unionize by requiring labor peace agreements in the new industry.

In his weekly column and podcast, Our Revolution Board Member Jim
Hightower writes about The GOP’s Shameful War on Voters.
( [link removed] )
He notes that at least 253 bills have been introduced in 43
states to obstruct voting. “The electoral process is being stolen
in broad daylight. This is pathetic, disgraceful political
thuggery.”

Our Revolution scored a major victory this week when the DCCC
officially ended its Blacklist - a ban on hiring or recommending
political consultants who work with primary challengers. Calling
it “a major victory for progressives,” Politico
( [link removed] )
writes: “The move is just the latest example of the Left
prevailing over their moderate colleagues in the House.”
