There was a fascist coup today at Riverfront city park in Salem, OR. They literally said this park is closed to anyone they didn’t want there. They had the entire downtown surveilled. Guarding crosswalks going into the park and parking lot. Happy May Day... https://t.co/oeqXXnXijO

Today is May Day, aka Int'l Workers' Day, where we recognize the organizers who fight for a living wage, for affordable healthcare, and against harmful Right-to-Work Laws. Thank you for your hard work. You will always have an advocate and ally with me in the Mayor's office. https://t.co/lsmQT9ree4

Happy May Day. ⚒️🌾🧹 Remembering, always, incarcerated workers today. Who fight fires, dig ditches, plant crops, manufacture, clean toilets, plumb, paint, wire, keep grounds, care for the sick, and for their labor make pennies a day to spend back in the system for basic needs. https://t.co/wHjuFVnNUR

Happy International Workers’ Day! Today, as a trade union and labour movement we remember the heroic workers’ struggles of the past and we steel ourselves for the fights we now face. It was a joy to be part of both the @TUCLeeds and @TUCManchester online May Day Rallies today. https://t.co/uix5hWDlOp

Today is May Day - the international festival of workers. It started right here in the US - & was celebrated for decades until Republicans feeding on the “red scare” co-opted it calling it Law Day & moving Labor Day to September. But US labor history shouldn’t be erased. Read! https://t.co/bi1vXdFxfc
