Press Associates Union News Service at People’s World reports that Fight For $15 And A Union has become Fight For A Union.  Campaigners have changed that - starting just before May Day by changing the name.  The campaign began its rebranding announcement with: From the beginning, we were speaking out, organizing and striking for a Union.  As Workers, we fight for a thriving wage, not just a living wage.  For more than a decade we’ve fought to raise wages and standards for low-wage Workers across the country.  We’ve won raises for millions of Workers and developed new ways for Workers to represent and empower ourselves!  We continue that fight today. We Fight for a Union!  The fight for 15 and a Union started 12 years ago with a simple demand: A $15 an hour livable wage for all workers. Since then we’ve made huge strides as Workers, winning billions of dollars in raises.  But in a country with the minimum wage still stuck at $7.25 an hour, the demand lives on.  But there was always a second part of that demand, Unions.  As Workers we were striking for a rising wage, not just a living wage.  For equity, community, dignity, protections against AI (Artificial Intelligence) and automation, dignified retirement, safety on the job and time with our families.  Justice in all its forms.  And so many other things a Union provides.  The Union is how we fight for the lives we want to live and the world we want to see.  Fight for a Union is already involved in one key drive, campaigning for Massachusetts Legislation that would preserve the right to Unionize for Uber and Lyft Drivers, as well as other Gig Economy Workers.  The two big Ride-Sharing Firms are pumping millions of dollars into their own campaign for a referendum to ban Unionization, just as they succeeded in doing in California through ads featuring dissident Drivers, shills - or both.  They spent more than $200 million there against a minimum wage.
