Work Reform Group

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Our Philosophies:

All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.

Our Goals

Higher wages for underpaid workers.
Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
Better and fewer working hours.
Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

If you live in New Jersey, please take this guy down in November

This is Tom Kean

He was absent from Congress for months. He missed over 100 votes. During his absence, he continued collecting his salary.

That is hardly the worst on the list for this guy.

Anti-choice, anti-medicare, broken ethics pledge and actively trading stocks, he will physically dodge reporters to avoid having to state his opinion, supports ICE, etc, etc.

Best case scenario he just disappears forever.

His seat is on the ballot for November.

What the…

Are we all sure the Epstein class hasn’t started the next leg of our slide into cyberpunk dystopian hell by prepping a McConnell clone and the reason they’ve been out of office so much is the time spent preparing for the brain swap?

I don’t live in New Jersey, but I hope the guy is thrown out of office.
