SEIU California

UPDATE: David Huerta was just released from custody!

Let’s be clear: ICE injured and detained the president of SEIU California for peacefully observing. ICE picked the wrong side. The wrong state. The wrong person. and the wrong union. David Huerta stood up. And now 750,000 SEIU workers are standing up behind him. seiuca.org/press-releas...

A worker was killed. Dozens detained. Dr. Jonathan Caravello, A CSU faculty member and US citizen, was brutalized & disappeared by ICE for observing. Trump’s ICE thugs are escalating terror in our communities. Release them ALL. seiuca.org/press-releas...

Requiring the state to study and report on every major tax break is common sense transparency that working families deserve. We’re asking the #CaLeg to vote AYE on #SB1349. #UnRigCA @wearecta.bsky.social @senatorgonzalez.bsky.social

This is what worker power looks like. Ten years ago, gig drivers had no path to a union. They organized like never before: in parking lots, coffee shops, text and WhatsApp, and in the Capitol. And they built the single largest rideshare union in the world. A win for all of us.

BREAKING: California just confirmed: California Gig Workers Union has the driver support to represent Uber and Lyft drivers across the entire state. That makes CGWU the largest union of rideshare drivers ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. Today tens of thousands of drivers can celebrate history.

50+ organizations. Thousands of workers. And the courage of @CAgovernor, Pro Tem Limón, Speaker Rivas, and Budget Chairs Laird & Gabriel. One goal: making the largest corporations pay their fair share when their workers rely on Medi-Cal. The freeride's days are numbered. #UnRigCA #SB177

Xavier Becerra is the son of immigrants and comes from a union family. he knows what it takes to build the California dream. The 750,000 members of SEIU California are proud to endorse @xavierbecerra.bsky.social for Governor to stand up to Trump and #UnRigCA! seiuca.org/press-releas...

The votes are still coming in, but our members already know: when working people knock doors and show up, we win. We've knocked out at least TWO anti-worker candidates, and we're just getting started. This is what worker power looks like. seiuca.org/press-releas...

The Assembly budget understands that California needs real revenue, and corporations freeloading off our communities have to pay their fair share. But with #HR1 threatening devastating cuts, we need urgency NOW – Working families can't wait. #CABudget seiuca.org/press-releas...

"I fear that people are gonna die from these cuts." This mother of two special needs children shares how #HR1 cuts to Medi-Cal put working families, patients, and workers at risk while the richest corporations get tax breaks. The CA Senate budget plan is fighting to protect them. #UnRigCA

#CALeg continues to lead the nation in supporting working people! HUGE labor bills pass out of approps – Security officers, gig drivers, child care providers, court workers and others are celebrating wins!
