$2.5M for justice. Harris County is backing the DA’s independent investigation into the ICE killing of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo. This will fund staff, evidence gathering, and put pressure on federal agencies. www.texastribune.org/2026/08/06/t...

We’re at Harris County commissioner’s court today and here they are having a special session on budget. Nearly 150 residents have signed up to speak. We’re looking forward to hearing what people are prioritizing.

Houston’s workers make this city thrive—let’s celebrate them! Labor Day Community Celebration 📅 Sept 7 | 6–8 PM 📍 Fonde Park 🎉 Parade • Games • Food • DJ • Art • Education #LaborDayHouston #SolidarityForever actionnetwork.org/events/labor...

OSHA reminds us: heat illness is preventable. Hydrate, rest, and cool down. Employers must provide safe conditions workers shouldn’t risk their lives for a paycheck. Check out this Article: abc13.com/post/heat-sa...

Heat deaths are rising, and enforcement is falling. Texas eliminated local heat safety ordinances, leaving workers exposed. We need stronger county enforcement and community pressure to make sure employers follow OSHA’s basic guidelines. Heat safety is a right, not a luxury.

Houston workers can attest that the humidity and heat are life threatening and dangerous on the job. Every worker deserves shade, water, and rest. Protect your crew, check on neighbors, and demand enforcement of heat‑safety standards.

More than one in ten construction workers are undocumented, and they are disproportionately targeted for misclassification and wage theft. Fear of deportation keeps many from reporting violations. We fight for every worker, regardless of status.

Wage theft costs U.S. workers billions each year. Know your rights: overtime pay is 1.5× your regular rate no exceptions. Every stolen hour is stolen dignity. Houston workers are organizing to end wage theft and demand accountability.

Workers have the right to remain silent, the right to refuse consent to a search, and the right to speak to an attorney. Our Fearless at Work trainings help families prepare for enforcement actions safely.

Please join us to honor the life of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and seek to build a world where no community members are lost of ICE violence.
