HUGE: Autozone workers just won the first ever union at the company.
Despite Autozone spending an estimated $210,696 and using every tactic in the book to stop just 11 workers from forming a union, the small shop in New York chose to unionize today.
These workers will now join the @UAW.

Door Dash after committing wage theft of a quarter million workers
Since 2023, more than 200,000 Dashers in New York City were underpaid or paid late under the City’s delivery worker pay rules. These errors were unintentional, but that doesn’t make them acceptable. Dashers should be paid in full, on time, every time. We take full responsibility, and we’re deeply sorry.
We’ve reached a $131.5 million settlement with the NYC Department of Consumer and Worker Protection. Every impacted Dasher will receive the amount they are owed, and they’ll be contacted directly with payment details.
We understand the impact of even one missed or late payment. We’ve addressed the issues that caused these errors and made changes to prevent them from happening again.

The City of New York asserts this was not a mistake.
“For years, DoorDash failed to count every hour worked by delivery workers,” Mayor Mamdani said. “This was not a rounding error or an accidental mistake.

The over 25,000 paraprofessionals serving our city face a dire affordability crisis of their own.
Local Law 129 is a constructive step forward in stabilizing the municipal workforce, providing financial relief while vacancies and billions in Carter Case spending are addressed.
More than 1,000 paraprofessional vacancies.
More than 25,000 paraprofessionals who barely make a living wage.
Today, we filed our legal response to defend Local Law 129 — for our students, our schools and our paraprofessionals.

An analysis of records shows NYPD boss Jessica Tisch has assigned dozens of cops with extremely troubling records to Community Response Teams. The Adams-era jump-out squads are known for routinely violating the rights of Black and brown New Yorkers.
