So many things impact weight gain/loss regardless of age. Having the courage to make a medical decision that can model healthy choices for others, that’s good stuff. GLP-1s, diet, & exercise is a great combo. Thanks for sharing @JBPritzker & well done.

Ted’s bizarre claim that he “funds” the CFL is only overshadowed by his clear over-the-top behavior towards the protesters. Ted’s organization has worked with a CFL related entity on some grants over the years, hardly funding the CFL itself. Ted should’ve stayed in his golf cart.
We bannered the CAIC golf outing re: the strike against QSL where workers have been on strike for 450+ days. Ted Stalnos says peaceful protestors “made jerks” out of themselves & responded w/ threats, an obscene gesture, & claimed he “funds the CFL.” #WorkersRights

Mike has always been a voice of reason and a principled defender of his community—especially during the all out attack on Little Village during the so-called Operation Midway Blitz. Big loss for our city, but he surely won’t be going far.

Chicago is a union town, and we’re proud of it.
All of the progress we take for granted, from good wages to days off to good benefits that protect hard work, were once hard fought and won by people who united to take a stand.
Honored to join @chicagolabor this week to support this ongoing fight and celebrate the hardworking people of this city.

This is an incredible opportunity to not only spur job growth on the near Southside, but to help strengthen the economy of the City. I look forward to learning more about Justin Ishbia’s vision for this bold project!

The workers who operate JTRAN buses in Jackson, Mississippi get thousands of people to work and home to their families. After more than a month of solidarity while on strike, they won a new contract.
Congrats to our @ATUcomm Local 1208 union family! ✊

Disneyland hotel workers help make magic happen for millions of visitors every year. It’s time they got the fair pay they’ve earned and deserve.
Solidarity with our @UNITEHERE11 union siblings!
NOW: workers demonstrate outside of Disneyland and the #D23 Disney fan event carrying signs reading "There's no magic in my paycheck" and "I can't eat fairy dust." Workers are calling on Disney to provide fair wages for the people who make the guest experience possible.

The following statement is attributable to CFL President, Bob Reiter:
“We’ll be working real hard to help get this race back on the schedule for 2028. NASCAR and the Chicago Street Race. We’ll be getting back to that checkered flag soon!”

It’s been a year since President Trump signed the “Big, Beautiful Bill” into law, and it’s been ugly for workers.
Millions have lost their health care. Kids lost food assistance. All to give the rich a tax break.

We join the entire labor movement in mourning the loss of @NashvilleCLC President Vonda McDaniel, a trailblazer and true champion of working people.

This first international labour standard on the platform economy marks an important step in addressing a rapidly evolving area of the world of work.
