08-08 Uniting to Fight the Trump Takeover

When Greg Abbott called the July special session, he held critical flood relief hostage to push a redistricting scheme designed to help Trump steal congressional seats and lock in GOP control of the House.

Texas legislators used the last tool available to them: breaking quorum. By denying the Legislature the number of members required to conduct business, they’re standing up for Texans’ right to choose who represents them — not the other way around.

This fight is bigger than Texas. It's a fight for the future of our democracy, and working people across the country know it’s time to act.

Join Texas AFL-CIO President Rick Levy and California Federation of Labor Unions President Lorena Gonzalez for a virtual town hall to talk about how the Labor Movement is fighting back and how you can get involved.
