1/Today, the @WhiteHouse @StateDept did something no US administration has done before: they released a global labor strategy, a holistic commitment to global worker rights:whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
2/This strategy offers an opportunity for U.S. foreign policy to play an integral role in reversing corporate and government supported exploitation of millions of working people and bolster democratic freedoms around the world.
3/If there's one thing we know it's that the rights of workers and democracies go hand in hand -through the rights to form and join unions, strike and bargain together for fair wages and decent working conditions.
4/We have a lot of work to do when it comes to global worker rights - but this is a great start. All of us at @SolidarityCntr will be eagerly watching and ready to support the implementation and further commitment from the USG: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
