Igniting an American Worker Revolution

Tired of being underpaid, ignored, and trapped in a system designed to break you? I’m Randell Hynes—a 33-year tech veteran, experienced worker & family advocate, and U.S. Army Veteran who was laid off at 63 and forced to train my foreign replacement. I didn’t get mad. I got to work.

Here’s what you must know that unions and employers conceal: You already have union rights under Section 7 of the NLRA—even without a union. Federal law protects your right to organize, strike, and demand fair treatment. But protection exists only on paper. Any employer can violate these rights with near impunity because workers living paycheck to paycheck can’t risk income interruption. We’re scared!

This blog documents how 170 million American employees face a brutal reality: politicians on both sides are trapped in “pro-union vs. anti-union” ideology, betraying the 90% of workers who have collective action rights but zero protection from unlawful firing. Corporations exploit this legal void to silence workers and set exploitative wages, knowing the NLRB system moves too slowly to matter.

I’m not here to encourage collective action without protection—I can’t, in good conscience. When retaliation is swift and consequence-free for employers, showing workers their rights without protection would be reckless.

The solution is straightforward: Congress must pass a law creating meaningful, immediate, and financially prohibitive penalties for employer retaliation. Not someday. Now. Penalties severe enough to stop unlawful firing before it happens.

This is Day 0 of the Worker Rights Revolution—Until lawmakers deliver absolute retaliation protection, we document, expose, and build collective awareness that worker power exists—it has been criminalized by neglect.

We’re not waiting for perfect protection to start demanding change. We’re starting the revolution precisely because that protection doesn’t exist, and we’re done pretending otherwise.

THE BROKEN PROMISE: NO PROTECTION WHEN FIGHTING FOR A LIVING WAGE

American Workers Deserve Government Protection in Their Fight for Living Wages: The fundamental promise of the American dream has always been that hard work should lead to prosperity. Yet today, millions of American workers find themselves trapped in a system where full-time employment fails to provide basic economic security. The argument that workers should demand better wages from their employers ignores the fundamental power imbalance that exists in modern labor markets. Good government would do everything possible to protect American workers while they demand a living wage from their employers. Instead, the government steps aside and lets corporate interests determine the fate of working families.

The Reluctant Rise of Gig Work: How Archaic U.S. Labor Laws Silenced Collective Voice

The gig economy in America, now encompassing over 70 million workers, is often celebrated as a triumph of flexibility and autonomy. Yet beneath this narrative of empowerment lies a deeper, more troubling story: gig work has not emerged primarily from worker demand, but as a reluctant adaptation to a labor system eroded by outdated laws and the systematic weakening of collective worker voice. This transformation is less a revolution of choice and more a structural consequence of an unbalanced legal framework.
