TSA - union busters!!!
Shameful!!!

The Trump administration’s efforts to unwind collective bargaining for airport security screeners have been blocked since June, when a federal judge found the initiative was aimed at “punishing” the nation’s largest federal worker union.

Over the past forty years, there are few people who have made a more permanent mark on Legislative Hall and Delaware than Dr. Jerome Lewis.

On behalf of my colleagues in the Senate, we owe a debt of gratitude to Dr. Lewis for the profound impact he has had on public policy in Delaware and for his dedication to mentoring generations of future policy leaders through the Legislative Fellows Program.

Under his leadership beginning in 1982, and every year since, an esteemed cohort of students from the University of Delaware — and now Delaware State University — are chosen to work with each of the four legislative caucuses and within the Division of Legislative Services to help craft policy that changed the lives of Delawareans for the better. For generations, graduates of the Legislative Fellows Program have gone on to do great things themselves — many becoming full-time members of staff or even elected lawmakers themselves.

Dr. Lewis’ legacy is self-evident, woven through the state he served and the generations of leaders he helped shape, and he will be deeply missed. Our thoughts are with the Lewis family, the Biden School, and the countless public servants whose lives and careers he influenced for the better.

Major win. The House passed the Protect America’s Workforce Act, restoring collective bargaining rights for UA members working on federal projects. This is a clear example of what happens when UA members engage and make their voices heard.

Next step: the US Senate.
