From July 30 to August 3, a group of workers at Evolution Gaming in Georgia went on strike to request higher wages and the rehiring of their fellow workers who have been fired due to their union activities.
Evolution Gaming is a company that provides business to business online casino services. They are in operation in Latvia, Malta, Georgia, Romania, Canada and England and have an approximate staff count worldwide of 6000 people. Their most recent production hub opened in Tbilisi, Georgia in 2018.
Some of the workers at Evolution Gaming are paid as low as GEL400 (US$137) per month which is not even half of the average salary in Tbilisi. Due to those poor working conditions, workers have decided to organize and request a better salary. For over a month, the workers have brought their request forward. Just before the strike, which lasted from July 30th to August 3rd, workers were fired, the employer cited old disciplinary violations to justify the blatantly anti union and anti worker firings. The company has also refused any intervention in the conflict from the Evolution Trade Union which is currently representing workers in the Evolution Gaming Latvian offices, refusing to allow “union interference” in this work conflict.
The workers in the Georgian office of Evolution Gaming are now back to work, but their struggle is not over. They still are underpaid and their fellow workers were still fired in a union busting effort. The acts of Evolution Gaming are a clear attack on unions, workers and the right to collective bargaining. The North American Regional Administration of the Industrial Workers of the World stand in complete solidarity with the brave workers in Georgia who have decided to take their lives into their own hands and fight their greedy employers for better working conditions. Only in fighting together on our workplaces, in our industries and across borders can we hope to strengthen the rights of workers worldwide and truly empower the working class.

On January 25th, workers in the maquiladora plants in Matamoros, Mexico began a strike to demand a wage increase of 20% and an annual bonus of 32,000 pesos. Since then, the movement has spread to various industries: self-service shops, mining, Coca Cola factories, metal factories, and others. The workers’ demands are just. We support the movement’s demands and express our sympathy and support with the movement in its struggle to improve living conditions.
Recently, there have been strong confrontations between strikers and scabs at the Coca Cola and Mecalux factories, which unfortunately resulted in 9 injuries. We stand against any type of harassment of repressive end of the conflict, and send our widest support for the situation to be resolved without violence and in favor of the striking workers.

Workers at Little Big Burger know that our safety, well-being, and voices are important. Every single day we serve customers, cook food, bus tables, and wash dishes. We have formed the Little Big Union to ensure Little Big Burger is truly inclusive of our collective voice as workers.
Portland, Oregon is ground zero for fast food organizing. We love this city and call the Pacific Northwest our home. However, rent and the cost of living have continued to increase while our wages have not. Now, it is increasingly difficult to live in the neighborhoods we serve. This is why we are proud to stand in solidarity with the Burgerville Workers Union, as members of the Industrial Workers of the World, in the fight to make food service an honest, dignified, and dependable job.
Little Big Burger is no longer a small business, they were acquired by North Carolina-based multinational corporation Chanticleer Holdings in 2015. Us workers and our families depend on this job for our livelihood, and we hope those who prepare the food, serve the guests, and create the environment that has built Little Big Burger stand to grow with our company. Workers continue to struggle by stretching our paychecks month to month, surviving off minimum wage, unreliable tips, and inconsistent schedules released often a day or two before we work. We are proud of the hard work we provide Little Big Burger, which is why we demand:
- $5 raises
- Fair and consistent scheduling
- Safe and Healthy workplaces
- Respectful and professional conduct from management
- Benefits like child care, paid parental leave, quality healthcare, food boxes, bus passes, parking passes, and shift beers
- Paid sick leave and vacation time
- Worker autonomy to refuse service to abusive/dangerous customers
- Holiday pay
- Transparent hiring and firing policies
- Sanctuary workplaces

“Why did they march?” A mini-documentary from the Richmond IWW
https://wobsouth.info/richmond-va-educators-stage-united-statewide-walkout
Thousands of education workers from all around the commonwealth of Virginia descended on the capitol city of Richmond in what was the largest single demonstration on the Capitol since 1916. The Richmond IWW was contacted by the lead organizers of this mass action for advice, assistance, and solidarity.
The IWW’s involvement in the action itself, while not irrelevant, was also small in comparison to the efforts put forward by the rank-and-file teachers that built the RedForEd movement in Virginia from the ground up. We are proud to know and have marched beside these brave educators, some of whom are now also wobblies!
Members of the branch were able to interview some of the folks that made this amazing day happen. These educators give their own personal details as to why they got involved, why they marched, and why they need more than VA is willing to give. Please watch this video with a full heart and pass it along to your friends…then take action!
