    Just the fact alone that Governor kay Ivey encouraged workers to vote No for a union would have been the push i needed to Vote Yes for the union.. Workers keep standing up for your rights. Alabama needs a change. Vote out republiklans

    Anti union propaganda won. Workers were too intimidated by the idea of losing their jobs to vote union.

    Shawn yall will win keep your head up 💙🇱🇷
  • The efforts should have been deeper. Footsoldiers like Political motivations.... In the neighborhood of workers. At convenience stores, grocery stores, malls.....Clubs if necessary. I hope yall get it together. It shows what courage looks like....keep up the fight!

    I’ve been a union member of the NALC for 35 years. I respect the American worker. We just want to be treated fair and shown appreciation for our work.
  • I wanna give those workers in the background a hug. You can tell the loss stings. But MANY union chapters take multiple votes to get unionized. So don't give up. Eventually the company will break all of the promises they made during the union campaign and people will wise up.

    We lost the battle but not the war. Solidarity forever.

    16k robots will replace most Unskilled workers. These guys voted to protect what little they have left. Plan for retirement because things are changing fast.

    The UAW can use that shirt for toilet paper. If it aint broke dont fix it. Fixed Or Repaired Daily...?

    How much does the UAW president get paid every year? What product does the UAW sell to generate the revenue in order to pay him and the 1.25 million dollars in pro union advertisements they blew on this election?
