Unions

Project 2025 doesn’t like unions

Step 1: Learn

What is at risk

  • Makes it harder for work centers to organize and advocate for workers

  • Allow employers to hire consultants to discourage unionizing

  • Let bosses determine who are employees vs contractors, which would restrict benefits

  • Makes it harder to form unions, allow states to weaken and prevent unions

  • Give unions less influence over work conditions

  • Give more opportunity for employers to retaliate against organizing workers

  • Could eliminate the Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program, removing incentive for folks to enter public service

Pods are your close knit communities. Here’s more information about pods. Identifying who is in your pod is important to figure out how you can best help. Remember the ripple effect is powerful, helping keep your close ones afloat will help others as well. If someone in your pod is impacted by proposed changes, how can you help support them either now or in the future?

Some examples are:
