Welcome to 99 Rising, a podcast by SEIU Local 99, Education Workers United. In this series, we dig into the labor, political, and cultural issues shaping the lives of education workers and our communities. We invite you, our community family, into a conversation around the history of the labor movement, affordability, childcare, immigration, and much more.

Hosted by Executive Director Max Arias, 99 Rising features candid discussions with Local 99 members, community leaders, labor leaders, elected officials, and movement thinkers—all focused on what it takes to build power and win justice for working people.
