Exciting news! The staff at @AmericaVotes have unionized as the America Votes Workers Union! We’re optimistic about the commitment we’ve received from management toward voluntary recognition and are working with them on next steps.

✊🏾✊🏼✊🏿BREAKING: Today we are unionizing the United States Senate.
Last Friday our membership voted to approve our first union contract! Thanks to everybody who has worked to bargain and organize since 2019.
We look forward to working with @AmericaVotes on fully implementing it, and to heading into 2024 a stronger organization than ever before.

Today we were ready to work for as long as it took to reach a fair deal, but management walked away from the table with five hours to go. It’s official: @NYTimesGuild members are walking out for 24 hours on Thursday. We know what we’re worth.

I had a great time tonight talking with the @AVWorkersUnion bargaining team about their fight for fair pay, responsible working conditions, and a fair contract from @AmericaVotes management. ✊ #1u #Solidarity

We’re excited to share that Catalist has reached a tentative agreement on a first contract with the @CatalistUnion. We’re proud to be the first progressive data and analytics firm with a staff union. Read our joint statement here. catalist.us/catalist-and-cat…

“We are disappointed by the termination of the 7 partners fired in Memphis. This termination was blatant retaliation and while it was meant to discourage us from unionizing more, it has only emboldened us and highlighted the need for this union even more.” 63rd & Grand Committee

"That raise meant nothing"—Inflation is erasing pay increases for most workers
Hotel worker Ty Stehlik received a $1-an-hr raise, but higher rent & food prices negated that 7% bump
Average wages rose 4.7% last year, but fell 2.4%
adjusting for inflation

It’s against the law for your boss to prohibit you from discussing your wages with your coworkers, and also remember there are more workers than there are bosses

Hey guys, it's been pretty quiet since New Year's eve on our end because we've been busy tying up some loose ends. But we're officially welcoming in 2022 with a very special announcement:

We are employees of The Public Interest Network (TPIN) working together for more-than-living wages, an equitable social change movement, and a sustainable culture within our organization. That’s why we’ve filed for union recognition with @OPEIU to represent staff in all branches.

After reviewing mgmt's first proposal on economics, it is clear we have a long fight ahead to ensure our members are guaranteed fair compensation and benefits. What mgmt proposed today does not meet the moment economically, and utterly fails to address the problem of inflation.
We proposed an FSA funding scheme to help offset the experienced cost of healthcare in the US, and management rejected any organizational contribution to the accounts.
