First they came for the undocumented, and then they came for you and me.

> Where are the 48 New Mexicans that were disappeared by our government the first week of March? We have heard nothing since they were kidnapped. No due process, not even names released. An email sent to the Governor’s Office has not been answered, and the media has forgotten, too. Let us never forget and never stop demanding answers. - Jennifer Johnson

PeaceHealth union members overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike at St. Joseph Medical Center in Bellingham, WA.

The Service Employees International Union represents more than 900 PeaceHealth employees, including technicians, lab professionals and service workers. The two sides remain far apart on several key issues, including wages and medical leave.

actionnetwork.orgTell Microsoft To Stop Partnering With Israel's GenocideBREAKING: Microsoft is a core partner in Israel’s AI-powered massacres of Palestinians. Leaked documents published on Jan. 23, 2025, expose the deep partnership between Israel’s military operations and Microsoft.  Take action: mpowerchange.org/microsoft We now know that Israel’s military used Microsoft’s cloud platform (Azure), a “suite of communications and messaging systems,” millions of dollars of engineering support, and more. Take action with us — and support the Microsoft workers organizing to cut ties with the IDF. Israel’s so-called “demands of the war” on Gaza called for outside tech support. To that end, Israel’s military operational capabilities were “upgraded” during the current war in Gaza thanks to the “wonderful world of cloud providers” that enabled “very significant operational effectiveness.” The sanitized language of “operational effectiveness” is a weak cover for Israel’s AI-powered war machine, unleashed on Gaza for 15 months. Israel’s AI program “has been a behind-the-scenes force accelerating the death toll in Gaza, which has claimed 45,000 lives….” Microsoft has lofty public-facing AI goals. These include AI for Humanitarian Action: “aimed at harnessing the power of AI to support disaster response and recovery, help ensure the safety and wellbeing of children around the world, protect refugees and displaced people, and promote respect for human rights.” The Jan. 23rd exposé shows that Microsoft has caused the opposite of their stated aims, and its actions of support for Israel accelerated an AI-powered genocide. Microsoft supported what the International Criminal Court sees as “plausible genocide. Microsoft should be held accountable.

The labor movement holds one value above all others: solidarity. Labor demands an end to the Trump administration’s assaults on immigrant workers, freedom of speech, the right to organize and bargain, and federal government workers, their unions, and the services they provide.
