GOOAAALL! Philadelphia hotel workers celebrated victory in the Workers World Cup following their historic 9 day strike of the Sheraton Downtown. Members of UNITE HERE Local 274 set a new citywide standard of $30/hr, increased pensions, a reduction in room cleaning workload, and for the first time truly affordable family health coverage. 

2026 is a historic year for tourism in Philadelphia with hotel bosses raking in billions while workers struggle working 2 and 3 jobs just to get by. Determined to get their fair share of record profits, Sheraton workers struck with their leverage at its highest — during the World Cup.

These workers proved that STRIKES WORK and collective action can take on the billionaire class and win for working people. Organize your workplace, get active in your union, and join DSA today!

AFSCME DC47 VP & Legislative Director Robert Harris speaking at today’s Higher Ed rally at Temple. THANK YOU to everyone who braved the heat to join us! 🔥✊

We are showing our solidarity with the city’s higher ed workers at Temple and Penn, who are facing cuts and layoffs amid questionable financial circumstances. We know that, by standing together, we CAN stand up to admin and to the billionaires who are dismantling our education system. More to come on how you can help. Watch this space.  #union #philly #templeuniversity #upenn #workersoverbillionaires

IBEW Local 614 has officially put PECO and Excelon on notice. If these workers don’t get a fair contract by 12:01 AM on July 4th, these workers will go on strike. That means that the workers who provide 1/4 of energy in Pennsylvania will be walking the picket line if they don’t get the contract they deserve. Clocks ticking PECO⏰
