In the 1930s, thousands of autoworkers stood together against incredible odds and won a better life on and off the job. It was a bold action that helped create the American Dream. Today, that same fighting spirit lives on in the nearly 200k CDPAP caregivers who are courageously organizing with @1199SEIU to win a better tomorrow!
CDPAP caregivers across New York are voting to join the 1199 family, gaining the support, advocacy, and collective power that make the union difference.

The UAW stands with @IGMetall members taking action at more than 100 plants and supplier sites across Germany on 9/21. Autoworkers are standing up to plant closures, layoffs, and concessions—and demanding a future built on investment, secure jobs, and respect for the people who make this industry run.
