Last night was our first general membership meeting! Thanks to our newest affiliate, NALC Chicago Branch #11, for hosting. We signed up new members, gave updates from our member committees, and we passed two resolutions: 1) Solidarity with members of @CTULocal1 and SEIU Local 73 who are preparing for possible strikes; and 2) We agreed to fight for a budget for the many and not the few. It’s time to prioritize Brown and Black communities and ask the rich to pay their fair share! #FortheMany
We had a powerful house party today in Hyde Park. We signed up new members, talked about TIFS and our demand to fund our schools and communities not police and developers and we made plans to win a Chicago #ForTheMany Big shoutout to UWF members that hosted and organized: @smelliot.karl, Emma Marsano and Jacob Rosenblum for a great party!

With the threat of raids starting this Sunday, call Mayor Lori Lightfoot (312-744-3300) TODAY! We are asking that Mayor Lightfoot sign an Executive Order to ensure that the Chicago police do not assist ICE in these raids and do not have access to the city databases.
