Trump could never do the job of an auto worker, or a steelworker, or a construction worker, or any worker. This guy has never worked a real job in his entire life. He does not care about working people.

Voting rights are workers’ rights. When working people have a real voice at the ballot box, we can elect leaders who protect our right to join a union, ensure safe workplaces, live free from discrimination and retire in dignity. The Supreme Court has undermined workers’ voices.

Throughout his life, Rev. Jackson fought tirelessly for workers, both at home and around the world. At every turn, he reminded us that the fight for good jobs, living wages, and union rights is inseparable from the fight for justice and equality. May he rest in power.
