We are fighting for a future where AI benefits wor We are fighting for a future where AI benefits workers and communities prosper together, rather than being subject to Big Tech’s blind pursuit of profit and power.

We need guardrails so innovation can thrive and actually improve the lives of working families and all communities. Alongside frontline workers, we will continue to be a leading voice for transparency and accountability at every level.

Fast food workers in Morgan Hill went on strike la Fast food workers in Morgan Hill went on strike last week, speaking out against retaliation, wage theft, and unsafe working conditions at a local McDonald’s.⁠
⁠
The strike, covered by Telemundo and Univision, highlights a deeper issue facing fast food workers across the county: too many workers don’t know their rights—or are punished when they try to use them. ⁠
⁠
Workers like Martha Corona Hernandez and her daughter saw their hours slashed for taking sick leave, costing the family around $1,400 a month if allowed to continue. Others faced threats, discrimination, and lost hours after medical emergencies or pregnancy-related needs.⁠
⁠
This is exactly why workers are demanding universal access to Know Your Rights trainings—because no one should have to risk their livelihood just for standing up for their health, dignity, and basic labor protections.⁠
⁠
Fast food workers deserve respect, fair treatment, and workplaces that respect their rights!

Kaiser is overhauling its system for triaging patients, forcing patients to be filtered through AI to determine if they need immediate care—instead of being assessed by trained therapists.

In response to this, 2,400 Kaiser mental health professionals are taking action against this troubling move. They're calling to make Kaiser improve its care; not diminish it.

Get Flock out of San José! Earlier this week, the Get Flock out of San José!

Earlier this week, the community showed up at San José City Hall and spoke out about the dangers of Flock Safety and demanded stronger protections for our communities against AI mass surveillance. Neighboring cities like Mountain View, Santa Cruz, and even Santa Clara County have already terminated contracts with Flock Safety’s vulnerable surveillance systems. In response to this, the City Council unanimously voted to strengthen guardrails on the technology—but the work to protect our privacy and civil liberties is far from over.

Surveillance without accountability isn't public safety, and ALPRs are just one example of how these powerful new systems are harvesting vast amounts of our data and using AI in a regulatory void. 

Mass surveillance systems threaten our fundamental rights by enabling the tracking of residents without meaningful oversight, putting immigrant communities, people seeking healthcare, and community members speaking out for change at risk.
Workplace questions? You don’t have to figure it o Workplace questions? You don’t have to figure it out alone. 

The Santa Clara County Office of Labor Standards Enforcement (@sccfairwrkplace) offers a free attorney advice line for both workers and employers. Call now to get information about compliance, local and state resources, and even make legal clinic appointments!

Our 30th year is not an endpoint, but a continuation. As you watch this video, we invite you to imagine the next chapter of WPUSA—one shaped, as always, by working people coming together to demand a more just economy and a stronger democracy.

#WPUSA30
Silicon Valley’s tech boom generated immense wealt Silicon Valley’s tech boom generated immense wealth, but from the start, WPUSA recognized that so many workers were excluded from that prosperity.

In this video, WPUSA leaders speak about confronting the hidden costs of innovation. While tech transformed the economy; service workers, immigrants, and communities of color faced low wages, job insecurity, and displacement. Our work continues to challenge the narrative that inequality is inevitable—and insists that policy choices mattered.

As new technologies continue to reshape work, the lessons of the past 30 years remain urgent and remind us that that the future of technology is not just about what we build—but who benefits, and who has power in shaping what comes next.

#WPUSA30
As we end WPUSA’s 30th year, we’re pausing to refl As we end WPUSA’s 30th year, we’re pausing to reflect on the moment—and the movement—that gave rise to Working Partnerships USA. 

Born in a time of rapid economic change and growing inequality, WPUSA emerged from a shared conviction that working people deserved power, voice, and a real stake in shaping Silicon Valley’s future.

In this video, leaders across WPUSA’s history reflect on why the organization was created and what it was meant to do. Their stories remind us that WPUSA was never just a response to crisis—it was a proactive strategy to organize workers, influence policy, and challenge an economic model that left too many behind.
