The PROAct is a genuinely transformational piece of legislation and a rebuilt labor movement is essential to any sort of class politics. Unfortunately it has no chance in the senate so long as the filibuster remains. jacobinmag.com/2021/03/pro-a…

Joe Biden’s Amazon Workers Statement Was a Start. But the PRO Act Is the Litmus Test.

Joe Biden’s statement yesterday about the Amazon union drive in Alabama hit pro-labor notes. But he’ll have to back up his rhetoric with concrete action: Biden must fight to pass the PRO Act.

The #PROAct just passed in the House of Representatives. ✊ Now, it's time for the Senate to stop hiding behind outdated rules and procedures like the filibuster and pass this bill. cwa-union.org/news/releases/…

The country’s humanity is desperate for Sleepy and his handlers to have the courage...and to use their influence to crush all roadblocks. Sadly not hopeful based on past words and actions. @PressSec will surely articulate how much they tried, just like w/$15 per hour!

And why it will NOT go. Inauthentic Opposition needs its tragi-comedic foils.
