Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

MODERATORS
Procedural power over nominations and when to vote on bills is absolutely huge and can shape the nation as a certain vegetating turtle has shown over his career.
Is set by the Senate Committee Chairs, not the Senate Majority Leader. The Judiciary Chair holds significantly more power over SC nominees than Schumer, which is why Dick Durbin holds so much clout within the party and John Cornyn losing his primary was such a big deal within the GOP.
The Judiciary Committee also happens to be a Whose Who of People Planning to Run For President.
Interesting specifics there, thankyou. Good points.
