Press Contact: Lena Melentijevic Phone: (771) 241-0015 Email: mmcquaid@teamster.org
(BARRY, Ill.) - Members of Teamsters Local 916 at Ascend Wellness in Barry, Ill., have voted by a 92 percent margin to authorize a strike as they fight for their first contract. The workers cultivate, process, package, and distribute cannabis products for one of the nation's largest multistate cannabis operators.
"After more than a yearat the bargaining table, our members have had enough of this company's delay tactics," said JP Fyans, President of Teamsters Local 916. "Ascend's executives have no problem paying union-busting attorneys to drag out negotiations, but when workers demand a fair contract, they suddenly claim they can't afford it."
Workers are seeking fair wages, affordable health care, and strong workplace protections. Multiple unfair labor practice (ULP) charges have been filed against Ascend, including a charge that a bargaining committee member was targeted for union activity.
"Cannabis workers at Ascend are fighting for the stability and respect that should come with any good job," said Jesse Case, Director of the Teamsters Food Processing Division. "The Teamsters are committed to helping our members build long-term careers at this company. We will not allow Ascend's reckless conduct to continue."
"Ascend brings in millions of dollars every year off of our backs," said Shane Wilmer, an Ascend cultivator and member of Local 916. "This company can afford to give us the contract we deserve. We are ready to do whatever necessary to get a fair contract, and we are not afraid to strike if that's what it takes."
Teamsters Local 916 represents more than 4,000 workers throughout the state of Illinois from Chicago to Carbondale and East Saint Louis to Champaign. For more information, visit teamsters916.org.

SILVER SPRING, Maryland, June 8 [Category: Union] -- National Nurses United issued the following news release:
* * *
Nurses put Beacon Kalamazoo on 'RED ALERT' status
*
Kalamazoo registered nurses, who are members of Michigan Nurses Association (MNA) and its parent union National Nurses United (NNU), will hold a rally and community event on Saturday, June 13 to demand long-term solutions to maintain services at Beacon Kalamazoo Hospital and advance nurses' Vision for a Healthy Society.
Beacon Kalamazoo Hospital, which, according to NNU's analysis of Medicare Cost reports and Definitive Healthcarereports, receives more than half of its net patient revenue from Medicaid and Medicare, faces significant financial challenges as a result of the federal budget bill (H.R. 1) passed last year. As a result of H.R. 1 and other federal cuts, NNU estimates a loss to Beacon Kalamazoo's income of $9.6 million to $15 million annually.
"I've put my life blood, sweat, and tears into Beacon Kalamazoo and it's horrible to know that it is endangered by the health care cuts in H.R. 1," said Beacon Kalamazoo registered nurse Cindy Evans. "Nurses condemn the funneling of our health care dollars into tax cuts for billionaires and funding endless wars abroad. What's happening in our country makes me scared, but I'm also hopeful because I know our community will stand together to fight for a better future. We aren't just here to protect our hospital, but also to win our Vision for a Healthy Society that includes Medicare for All and all the policies that will put back power in the working people - and not the billionaires."
What: Beacon Kalamazoo Hospital nurses 'RED ALERT' rally and community event
When: June 13, 2026 | Free wellness checks from 11 a.m.; free tacos and live music from 11 a.m.; program/rally begins at 12 p.m.
Where: Bronson Park, 200 S Rose St., Kalamazoo, Mich.
Speakers and guests include:
* NNU President and Beacon Kalamazoo RN Jamie Brown, Beacon Kalamazoo RN Cindy Evans, and MNA President Aaron McCormick, RN
* Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, physician and author; Celia Keenan-Bolger, Tony Award-winning actor; Austin Brown, president of South-Central Michigan Area Labor Council; Bill Farmer, chairperson of Michigan For Single Payer Healthcare and co-chair of Southwest Michigan DSA Medicare for All Working Group
Musical performances by: Great Lakes Brass Band and The Willrock Brothers
"Our collective pain has been exacerbated by the massive health care cuts and billionaire tax breaks from H.R. 1. This rally is about standing up to a system built for profit instead of patients and fighting for healthcare that centers dignity, trust, and care for everyone," said guest speaker Dr. Abdul El-Sayed. "It's nurses and the people vs the billionaires and oligarchs. I'm proud to have earned the endorsement of National Nurses United, and I will always stand with them, here at the Red Alert Rally in Kalamazoo, at hospitals across the country at risk of closure, or anywhere they are fighting for us."
Beacon's patient population is expected to face increased challenges to accessing care, as nearly 85 percent receive care through Medicaid and Medicare, according to the American Hospital Association Annual Survey. They will undoubtedly be hit with a double punch as H.R. 1 is slated to cut SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) by $186 billion dollars over the next ten years; 14 percent of Kalamazoo County residents face food insecurity.
More information on the financial vulnerability of Beacon Kalamazoo Hospital and potential impacts to patient care is available here.
'RED ALERT' tour offers the union nurse vision for how to make America healthy:
The June 13 event is part of National Nurses United's RED ALERT tour, which is travelling to communities facing a drastic reduction in the quantity and quality of health care services as a result of H.R. 1, the budget bill that cut more than a trillion Medicaid and Medicare dollars to give billionaires tax breaks, militarize immigration enforcement, and fund endless wars abroad.
Nurses will be taking their alternative Vision for a Healthy Society directly to the patients and working-class communities they serve. To date, RED ALERT has visited communities in Glendale, Oceanside, Alameda, and Oroville in California; and Minneapolis, Minn. This is the first stop in Michigan. NNU researchers have identified more than 600 nonprofit and community hospitals across the country that are in a similar position to Beacon Kalamazoo.
"Nurses reject the deadly agenda of the billionaire class and their Republican puppets," said NNU President Jamie Brown, RN a critical care nurse at Beacon Kalamazoo. "We're taking the wheel and bringing our vision for a healthy society directly to patients and communities who will bear the brunt of Republican policies. We invite everyone who has felt abandoned by the political system to join us and build real working-class solidarity."
Senator Bernie Sanders has released comprehensive tax proposals to change the U.S. tax system and raise trillions in revenue, which NNU strongly endorses to keep hospitals and health services accessible, eventually guarantee health care for all through Medicare for All, and build the pillars for a society that takes care of everyone's needs, including affordable housing, education, and unionized living-wage jobs. He also recently introduced, alongside Representative Ro Khanna (CA-17), the Make Billionaires Pay Their Fair Share Act, which would establish a five percent annual wealth tax on billionaires and invest the revenue in working families, including reversing the H.R. 1 Medicaid cuts, and expanding Medicare to include vision, hearing, and dental.
National Nurses United is the largest and fastest-growing union and professional association of registered nurses in the United States with more than 225,000 members nationwide. NNU affiliates include California Nurses Association/National Nurses Organizing Committee, DC Nurses Association, Michigan Nurses Association, Minnesota Nurses Association, and New York State Nurses Association.

NEW YORK, June 8 [Category: Union] -- The AFL-CIO Writers Guild of America East issued the following news release:
* * *
New York Legislature Passes Landmark Bill to Disclose AI-Generated News to the Public
*
First-in-the-nation legislation will disclose generative AI in media, reporting, and restore public trust in professional journalism
ALBANY, NY (Jun. 8) - Senator Patricia Fahy (D-Albany), Assemblymember Nily Rozic (D-NYC), and the NY FAIR News Act coalition announced that the New York state legislature passed the NY FAIR News Act (New York Fundamental Artificial Intelligence Requirementsin News Act), S.8451-B / A.8962-B, landmark legislation that mandates news organizations operating in the State include clear disclaimers on published content substantially or wholly generated by artificial intelligence. The NY FAIR News Act now heads to Governor Kathy Hochul's desk for signature.
The legislation mandates that news organizations operating in New York fully disclose to the public when they use generative AI to create news content, articles, or media. The NY FAIR News Act won bipartisan passage in both chambers and establishes a common-sense, legally sound guardrail mandating disclosure when news is not generated by a human being. According to the National Broadcasters Association, more than 76% of Americans report being concerned about AI stealing or reproducing journalism and local news stories.
The NY FAIR News Act was supported by the NYS AFL-CIO, Writers Guild of America East, SAG-AFTRA, the NewsGuild of New York, The NewsGuild-CWA, CWA District 1, Directors Guild of America, Freelancers Union, Writers Guild of America West, and workers at local and national newsrooms operating across New York State. This broad coalition came together out of recognition that the public must know when the news they read, watch, or listen to is produced by a human or by a computer.
"Perhaps one of the industries at most risk from the use of artificial intelligence is journalism, and as a result, the public's trust and confidence in accurate news reporting," said Senator Patricia Fahy (D-Albany). "AI is reshaping our economy at a pace faster than the Industrial Revolution. To protect the public's trust in reporting and the news they read every day and the journalists who do the work, I'm proud that we were able to pass my NY FAIR News Act with Assemblymember Rozic to break the national mold on this issue, and I look forward to working with my colleagues in the State Senate to continue enacting common sense guidelines that protect New Yorkers from the unintended consequences of AI."
"The passage of the NY FAIR News Act is a major victory for journalism and for the communities that depend on trusted news. As artificial intelligence continues to reshape how news is produced and distributed, we have a responsibility to ensure transparency, protect workers, and preserve the value of original reporting. I am proud to have partnered with Senator Fahy to advance this effort and strengthen protections for both journalists and consumers," said Assemblywoman Nily Rozic, Chair of the Consumer Affairs and Protection Committee.
"Thank you to Senator Fahy and Assemblymember Rozic for championing a bill that ensures the integrity of the news and its workforce are safeguarded against artificial intelligence," said Tom Fontana, President of the Writers Guild of America East. "AI will never be able to do the work journalists are required to do to accurately report and contextualize local and national news. We hope Governor Hochul will quickly sign this bill into law to mitigate one of the risks posed by AI and place value on the vital work done every day by newsroom workers."
"SAG-AFTRA is grateful to the NY State Senate and Assembly and bill sponsors Senator Patricia Fahy and Assemblymember Nily Rozic for passing the NY FAIR News Act," said SAG-AFTRA Chief Labor Policy Officer and New York Local Executive Director Rebecca Damon. "SAG-AFTRA supports the implementation of smart guardrails around the use of AI for all of our members working in front of a camera or behind a microphone. New York is the center of the American news industry and the broadcast journalists SAG-AFTRA represents are a key part of the state's workforce. The NY FAIR News Act builds on the wins of our Synthetic advertising law, and creates a meaningful, enforceable protection for both journalists and consumers of news media. We encourage Governor Hochul to sign the bill into law."
"Behind every live news broadcast are countless real-time decisions that no artificial intelligence system can fully replace, and The NY FAIR News Act ensures that the transparency, human artistry, pacing, and judgment that goes into directing news remains front and center," said Neil Dudich, Associate National Executive Director of the Directors Guild of America (DGA). We applaud our Albany lawmakers for upholding the integrity of the news and safeguarding the right of the public to credible, quality journalism they can trust."
Susan DeCarava, President of the NewsGuild of New York, said, "The NY FAIR News Act is a first legislative step towards holding media companies accountable for how they use artificial intelligence. As the union for news media professionals, The NewsGuild of New York believes that real journalism requires real human beings. New Yorkers from upstate to downstate deserve to trust the news they read and watch. So if media bosses want to use artificial intelligence in news gathering and analysis, then it must be under terms that are ethical, transparent, and enforceable."
"The NY FAIR News Act is a win for every freelance journalist, writer, and media worker who does the hard work of keeping communities informed. Freelancers have always been on the front lines of the news economy -and they deserve a level playing field that doesn't allow corporations to replace their labor with AI away from the public eye. We thank the legislature for their partnership in passing this landmark legislation, and urge Governor Hochul to sign this bill into law, and lead our nation in holding media corporations to higher standards that benefit workers, consumers, and the public," said Elle Toussi, Interim Executive Director of the Freelancers Union.

SILVER SPRING, Maryland, June 8 [Category: Union] -- National Nurses United issued the following news release:
* * *
National Nurses United and 325+ Organizations Call For Passage of Medicare for All
*
(Washington, DC) -Today, National Nurses United (NNU) and over 325 organizations, including labor unions, advocates for seniors and people with disabilities, women's rights organizations, and more, released an open letter making the case that now is the time for Medicare for All, addressed to leaders looking to reform our health care system.
The letter is authored by NNU, Public Citizen, People'sAction Institute, Social Security Works, Physicians for a National Health Program, Labor Campaign for Single Payer, and Healthcare-NOW. Other signatories include Indivisible, MoveOn, and several prominent labor unions, including UAW, APWU, IFPTE, AFA-CWA, UE, Actors Equity, and more.
"Nurses, doctors, and patients all want one thing: for every person to get the care they need when they need it, without fear of cost or corporations interfering. That is the difference between guaranteed health care through Medicare for All and the so-called public option," said Jamie Brown, RN and NNU president. "At this dangerous moment in history, it's so clear that failing to provide visionary policies that center care and health for working people, instead giving profit to billionaires, has led to the rise of fascism. It's more urgent now than ever before to fight together in solidarity, millions strong, and demand a guaranteed health care system with Medicare for All. "
Medicare for All is overwhelmingly popular and commands majority support nationwide, with 63 percent of all voters in favor, including 90 percent of Democratic voters. In Congress, more than half of the House Democratic Caucus now supports Medicare for All, and Senate legislation has added three cosponsors since the last Congress.
This letter comes at a time when D.C. insiders are urging members of Congress and health care advocates to prioritize small tweaks to our current system. The letter warns that only structural change, Medicare for All, will meet the scale of the health care crisis. As health care costs soar, affordability is top of mind for U.S. families, and it's a particularly important kitchen- table issue ahead of the 2026 midterms. People in the United States need and demand Medicare for All.
The letter reads, in part:
" We may face a once-in-a-generation opportunity to legislate on health care in 2029. We need to rally behind the boldest possible reform, Medicare for All, that brings together the broadest possible movement. Now is not the time for overly complex incremental measures that prop up the same systems we're seeing fail under the weight of attacks by Trump and Republicans. The American people are hungry for bold ideas that will transform fundamental institutions that have failed them for too long. And they are looking for leaders who will take on powerful interests and fight for working people.
Now is the time to organize and inspire! Support for Medicare for All grows daily in our communities and in Congress. It's our best path forward, and it's rooted in real promise: Everybody in, nobody out. A small minority of skeptical health care policy wonks may try to convince us to scale back, that structural change isn't winnable.
The reality is that alternate proposals don't move us towards Medicare for All, complicate our already broken system, and allow corporations to continue profiting off the sick."
Check out the final letter and full list of organizations here.
National Nurses United is the largest and fastest-growing union and professional association of registered nurses in the United States with more than 225,000 members nationwide. NNU affiliates include California Nurses Association/National Nurses Organizing Committee, DC Nurses Association, Michigan Nurses Association, Minnesota Nurses Association, and New York State Nurses Association.

IATSE: Kennedy Center Ruling Confirms Concerns and Strengthens Workers' Case, But Fight for Jobs Continues
*
Washington, D.C. -The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) said the May 29 federal court decision blocking the Kennedy Center's planned shutdown confirms what workers have warned for months: major decisions were rushed, poorly informed, and put jobs and programming at risk.
The court found that the closure plan failedto meet basic obligations and relied on incomplete information. That plan was used to justify layoffs and disruptions affecting IATSE members and other union workers.
"This ruling confirms that you cannot dismantle a workforce through a flawed process," said International President Matthew D. Loeb. "Workers deserve lawful decision-making, transparency, and a real voice in choices that affect their livelihoods and this institution's future."
The decision does not end the labor disputes at the Kennedy Center, as the Kennedy Center has told its employees that the Center is considering all of its options. The Kennedy Center has not returned the laid-off employees to their jobs, despite calls by the Union to do so in light of the court's ruling. Moreover, unfair labor practice charges remain pending, contract negotiations are still unresolved, and workers continue to demand legally required negotiations over any changes that affect jobs, schedules, or working conditions. More demonstrations and legal actions are expected in the coming days and weeks.
"The fight to protect good union jobs at the Kennedy Center is far from over," Loeb said. "Our members are ready to do their jobs. We expect management to do theirs by bargaining in good faith, respecting workers' rights, and honoring the public mission of the center."

IATSE Says Long-Term Stability Is Key as Ottawa Pledges Major Investment in Audio-Visual Industry

TORONTO, ON - The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) welcomes the commitment of the Government of Canada to support the Canadian Audio-Visual Industry with an additional investment of $600 million per year. While the details of this investment have yet to be released, the IATSE will continue to advocate on behalf of our membershipthat this level of funding supports cultural sovereignty by the telling of Canadian stories to a world market. This includes maintaining strong support for French language content, Indigenous storytelling and content created by and for equity deserving groups.
The IATSE has long maintained a flexible approach to the On-Line Streaming Act and the need for the CRTC to weigh and consider the increasingly complicated forces, both domestic and global, which are impacting the industry.
A strong industry which supports Canadian Creative voices recognizes the need for a strong domestic sector as well as a vibrant foreign service sector. The two are not mutually exclusive. There was a time not too long ago when the industry recognised this reality and spoke with one unified voice. Stability has been a cornerstone for the growth of our industry. This period of relative uncertainty needs to conclude to ensure both foreign and domestic producers have the confidence to invest in the industry and in good-paying Canadian jobs.
The IATSE will once again be a strong advocate for its members and for the entire industry as the CRTC takes these matters under consideration. The IATSE will continue to speak to sustainable funding requirements which take into account current levels of investments to support the domestic industry and Canadian Creative talent.
