A major US labor union representing 2 million workers across healthcare, public services, and property services.
Newly disclosed records show the DHS surveilled protests and friendships of major unions and climate groups in Minnesota and New York as part of a broad operation to identify a network opposing immigration enforcement. The documents describe undercover agents at meetings, monitoring chats, and seizing financial data; prosecutors say the actions reflect a coordinated conspiracy, while critics warn of chilling effects on protest.
Union members have rejected a tentative deal, prompting renewed negotiations as labor tensions intensify across the tech sector and manufacturing. Reports indicate the rejection will delay agreement, heightening pressure on employers to offer better terms.
