Hi fedi, we are The Caucus for Powerful Reform (CPR), a reform caucus within the Oregon Nurses Association (ONA), one of Oregon's largest healthcare unions. #intro #introduction #oregon #healthcare #union #reform #labor We are RNs, APPs, Professionals, clinicians, and ONA members from across Oregon who want our union to be truly democratic, transparent, and member driven. As a reform caucus, the pillars of our platform are: build a meaningfully democratic union, what’s good for the community is what’s good for our union, and transparency in union leadership. We often shorten this to a motto length phrase: transparency, democracy, and solidarity. CPR is the most accomplished group of elected bargaining unit leaders in ONA, who’ve directly led many of our union’s most successful contract campaigns since the pandemic. Our Leaders’ wins include the lead table in the largest healthcare strike in Oregon history, the highest wages and staffing standards at the biggest health systems in Oregon for caregivers who passed strike votes in units as large as 4,000 workers and as small as 150 members in towns like Seaside. Our commitment is to use our experience as member leaders, who led historic wins in units large and small, to support democratic and transparent efforts for members across the entire state of Oregon, as we take on the threat of healthcare funding cuts. We saw a need for change in our union, so we got to work by involving members from across Oregon In 2026, ONA members decidedly voted in a majority of CPR members to the ONA Board of Directors. Our union is statewide and represents more than just nurses. Together we can make sure that we are helping to shape the future of healthcare in Oregon by continuing to elect candidates that will prioritize making healthcare in Oregon more accessible, accountable, and democratic. As Jobs With Justice writes in their Union 101, reform affects all of us It’s easy to forget that unions fought for many of the protections we take for granted in today’s workplaces: the minimum wage, the eight-hour work day, child labor laws, health and safety standards, and even the weekend. Today, unions across the country are still on the frontlines advocating for basic workplace reforms like increases in the minimum wage and mandatory paid sick leave.

#BoyGeorge is to perform in Tel Aviv next year The star has performed in Israel before, and last July he released "We Will Dance Again," a song inspired by the October 7 massacre and the Nova music festival. He has been spotted numerous times at #Reform conferences, and it is sad to see a singer who once wrote about love and equality become a champion of division and hate. #CultureClubbed

The headline writer is trying… I remember hearing a ditty about Henry VIII wives (to help kids remember their fates and the order - bizarre as it was, he was never a Scottish King) ‘divorced, beheaded, died, dibbled beheaded survived’ . I am sure that collectively a similar rhyme can be constructed to ‘remember’ the last 6 PMs or Reform’s crooks. Entries welcome. #Reform #Crooks #Unfortunate #Carelessness #Wilde #UKPol

He seems like a lovely "person" #Reform #ReformUK

The increasing Americanisation of British politics If you think it is a bad idea then please write to your MP and threaten (and mean it) to vote for a party that will correct this corruption of British politics. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/sep/19/uk-politics-increasingly-funded-by-billionaires-as-mega-donations-surge #UkPol #Corruption #Labour #Reform #Conserevatives #LibDems #ForSale

"The current benefit system incentivises people to stop work," said #Reform's Danny Kruger Nonsense As an aside, yesterday, I cancelled my PIP claim Xx

Caroline Lucas says on #BbcQuestionTime says, "Yes, the £72 million pound donation to #Reform is a threat to British democracy. Up for sale to the highest bidder. Reform wants us to believe these donations are made out of patriotism, but it is really quite an odd patriotism when one is a tax exile in Thailand and the other in Hong Kong. We need to have a cap on donations.

Dan Thomas, Leader of #Reform Wales, resigns as three of their councillors in Durham step down. That makes 16 councillors resigning in Durham alone!

In a bid to whip up racial tension #Reform led Essex council have employed private security guards near hotels that are accommodating #asylumseekers, areas that the police say have very low crime rates Sturmabteilung

A few months ago, #Farage promised to scrap the law that will ban everyone born after 2008 from smoking. Yesterday, it was revealed that British American Tobacco sponsored last month's #Reform conference. Farage is a heavy smoker himself. Smoking can lead to lung cancer. Reform have been described as a type of cancer. This is a public health announcement Xxx

Political donations have always been about buying favour and privilege. A true democracy would not be dependent on donations. They undermine concept everyone has one vote and those votes count equally (they don’t in the UK also because of FPTP). Notice that neither #Labour nor #Tories are suggesting political donations be banned from UK residents - just capped. #Reform are just making clear how obscene and undemocratic political donations are by the scale of those they accepted. #ukpol

Looks like now the #Met have had #Reform ‘s overseas fundraising actions smeared in their faces by Channel 4, they’ve deigned to say there are potential crimes to investigate… Imagine if we actually had an Electoral Commission and police force in the UK that actively enforced political donation laws, rather than being embarrassed into taking action long after rogue parties have benefitted in elections from their crimes. #ukpol

Hahah, the #Reform councillor who complained about the Pride event at #Exeter Library has now been investigated and apologise and undertake code of conduct training.

but just like the incestuous Hapsburg lineages and now the circular #AIslop economy, so too is the #globalization of capitalist oligarchic power. #AfD #Vox #Reform are all tied to #MAGA by the same incestuous political economy of financial imperialism, aka capitalism. BECAUSE THE POLITICAL MANIFESTATION OF #CAPITALISM IS AND HAS ALWAYS BEEN #FASCISM Adam Smith’s effort was to disambiguate the political economy of a country from the divine rights claimed by their nobility🧵…

#MAGA #PROJECT2025 is a hodgepodge of policies from post-1492 Spain mashed up with #blanqueamiento #ManifestDestiny and sundry fascist europe (Germany, Italy, Spain) fever dreams. so the best thing y’all in #EU #EUROPE could do is to call out #AfD #Reform #Vox and every neofascist movement in your country what they are: #MAGA wannabes. because they are. because there is a long history to prove it. / 🧵
