I introduced our newest UAW brother Zach Costello from VW Chattanooga at our Unite All Workers for Democracy (UAWD) victory party at @LaborNotes on Saturday—if you need something to give you hope today, read Zach's interview with Alex Press.

UAW members are changing our lives & this whole country. ✊
