Yesterday was one of the darkest, most shameful days in our nation's history. Incited by the rhetoric of Donald Trump, domestic terrorists stormed the U.S. Capitol and threatened the lives of our nation's lawmakers, their staffs and the men and women who serve what President Elect Biden called "the citadel of liberty." This insurrection was directly incited by President Trump and his allies and they must be held accountable. This president has violated his oath to the nation to defend and protect our constitution. He must immediately be removed from office.

This week’s announcement of the formation of the Alphabet Workers Union (AWU) was met across the tech industry, and among those organizing within it, with optimism and hope that the effort will lead to more tech workers realizing their collective power at work.

OPEIU's Tech Workers Union Local 1010 extends its congratulations to AWU, the Communications Workers of America (CWA) and all tech workers who have been brave and bold enough to stand up for their rights and help pave the way for the rights of others in the industry.

With such a large industry to tackle, and so many tech workers interested in organizing, Tech Workers Union Local 1010 has been energized by the myriad ways workers like those at Google are experimenting with different, context-specific ways to build power in their workplace, within an industry that can be rightly described as a new frontier for union organizing.
