Love ya
My name is Graham Platner. I'm the oysterman and Marine veteran running against Susan Collins. In 10 days we raised $1 million and signed up 3,000 volunteers. Please share this. Spread the word. Help us build something strong enough to defeat the billionaire class.a
“I’m not afraid to name the enemy and the enemy is the oligarchy.” Graham Platner
Graham Platner, an oyster farmer from Maine, wants to “claw back wealth that was created by the labor and the consumption of working-class Americans who have not shared in the riches they helped build.”
The next US Senator from Maine, Graham Platner.
Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
Graham Platner is going to WIN
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.
So true
Introverts don’t recharge with sleep, we recharge by being left completely alone for 3–5 business days
Ditto.
This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.
Thank you on this labor day!!
That’s Salvation. That’s why France 🇫🇷 is not exhausted like we all are.
Today we celebrate the strength and resilience of working people everywhere. Nearly 300,000 federal employees have lost their jobs this year not because of necessity, but because of a political agenda. And while people’s lives were destroyed in the name of “saving money,”

This Day in Labor History: September 1, 1849. The Brotherhood of the Union, an early pro-worker organization, formed. The vision of a George Lippard, this organization established principles in American working class activism that would be incredibly influential throughout the 19th century!!
Read labor historian @erikloomis.bsky.social on why so many major unions are failing to meet the moment and how they can turn that around www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...

🧵Labor Day is a chance to remember all unions have done for America. "The first labor union in the United States was the the Federal Society of Journeymen Cordwainers (leather workers and cobblers), founded in 1794." The union crumbled in 1806, when owners won a lawsuit charging workers with..1/
Labor Day This is what it looks when the rich are in control. Change never comes easy for the working man.
Today’s Gallup poll showed that nearly 7 in 10 Americans SUPPORT UNIONS. 7 in 10!! That’s a near-record high number. Raise your hand if you’re sick of the billionaire oligarchy!!! ✋
On Labor Day, we honor the generations of working people & labor unions who fought for rights we too often take for granted—safer workplaces, fair pay & benefits, and yes, even the weekend. But our work is far from done—Trump’s attacks on workers & unions make clear just how much we must defend.
Happy Labor Day & thank UNIONS for the weekend!
Trump is trying to push more government agencies to end collective bargaining agreements with federal worker unions. Why? Organized labor is standing up to Trump's authoritarian power grab. Tyrants will do anything to crush dissent. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...
This was the Guilded Age. No unions for these poor men
✊🏾💪🏽✊🏾💪🏽✊🏾💪🏽 #LaborDay #Unions #UnionStrong
A good weekend to remember that unions were the thing that gave us this holiday. The forty hour workweek, work place safety regulations and laws, and ensure pay increases despite federal stagnation. This is the worker's holiday.
On #WorkersLaborDay, we’ll show billionaires who we are and how we fight. We will stand together to speak up and demand better. #WorkersDeserve freedom, fairness and security, and we WILL fight for an economy that works for workers. Join us! workerslaborday.org
BILLIONAIRES NO. UNIONS YES!
From my grandfather, who battled union busters in the 1940s From my parents, school teachers who fought for fair wages and benefits From my daughter, who works with unions to create climate friendly jobs And me, representing union members injured at work Enjoy your Labor Day You've earned it
Trump/GOP attack everything that’s blue from blue collar workers to blue states & blue cities! This is the most anti-worker, unAmerican administration in USA history! Trump is a union buster all to help billionaires including himself! He knows unions fought & won rights & dignity! Stand with unions!
#LaborDay Remembering Utah Phillips He was an American Labor Organizer, folk singer, storyteller, and poet Always telling the stories of American workers and the struggles of labor unions Thank you, Utah Phillips #UnionStrong
Everything we take for granted at work — weekends, sick leave, safer conditions, even the end of child labor — exists because of unions.
Happy Labor Day! Unions are the backbone of our Commonwealth and country. That’s why Trump and Republicans are working so hard to bust unions and pit workers against each other. But know this: every right we have, we won. When we fight, we win. And we’re not backing down.
Unions gave us all our worker rights. #UnionStrong
Did you know in 1890 manufacturing employees worked on average 100 hours a week? It would be decades before the eight-hour workday became real. It took labor activists and labor unions to turn the cry for change into policy and practice. www.americaamerica.news/p/a-labor-da...
we had living wages with unions.
Happy Labor Day New York! Every Labor Day reminds us of the hardworking New Yorkers, Americans, and committed unions always there to support our communities. Labor built this country, and I will always stand with the workers and unions that got us where we are.
Labor has always been on the frontlines in the fight against fascism – and today is no different. Unions are fighting Trump’s cruel agenda in the courts and in the streets, and workers across industries are standing up for each other. There’s courage – and hope – in solidarity.
Do you like: - 40-hour work weeks? - Weekends? - Lunch breaks? - Minimum wages? Then you like unions! Support your local union workers 💪
As we celebrate Labor Day, President Trump is rolling back the rights of federal workers to organize unions and collectively bargain. Eliminating these protections is a violation of workers' free speech rights.
As we recognize Labor Day this weekend remember that it’s the labor movement and the support for unions that made America a better place. Child labor laws, worker safety, healthcare benefits, and pensions: we owe votes for unions and improved workplaces. This weekend, celebrate the labor movement!
Labor Day isn’t just a day off, it’s the result of strikes, protests, and organizing. Thank unions. Support unions.
Trust for labor unions is 20 points higher than trust for either the Democratic or Republican party.
Unions are popular but facing decades of decline. We asked photographers to document this unique moment for the American worker. From 2024:
Medicare for all. Paid leave. Universal childcare. Break up corporate monopolies. Take on Wall Street greed. Get big money out of politics. Support unions. Raise wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda.
Why has Trump been attacking unions and workers’ rights? He wants working people to feel helpless and divided. Trump and his billionaire backers realize that the collective power of a unified labor movement outweighs their own power. Know this: Workers outnumber the oligarchs.
Unions built this city and keep it running. They’ve fought against power and greed to make the impossible possible. Now, they need an ally in City Hall. On Labor Day, the presidents of the Hotel Trades Council, 32BJ and SEIU 1199 make the case at @cityandstateny.bsky.social.
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
Nearly 70% of Americans support labor unions. Why? Because more and more people know that unions ensure workers get higher paychecks, safer working conditions, and a real voice in both the workplace and our democracy. It's what every worker deserves.
On #LaborDay, I stand with every worker demanding fair pay, safe conditions, and respect on the job. The fight for dignity is far from over. (2/2)
Trump and Republicans attack unions because they know organized workers are powerful. But let’s be clear: workers built this country—not billionaires. (1/2)
Life is better in a union. Unions helped build our Social Security system. Strong unions make a strong Social Security system.
Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

Trump being removed through the 25th Amendment would be a Beautiful End to Trump
Why is the WH posting photos from earlier this year? Why does Trump have bruising on both hands? Why isn’t Trump talking to the press? Why is Trump taking three medications to prevent strokes and cardiac episodes? Someone is lying to the public. 25th Amendment now. #ProudBlueVoices4Victory
YES Rep Maxine Waters has called for the cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Donald Trump from the White House. www.themirror.com/news/politic...
