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 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 washingtonpost.com/business/…

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: ufcw400.org/2022/01/03/polit…

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.

Today I am grateful for my union @AVWorkersUnion who brought the fire after management struck our entire contract provision on supporting LGBTQ+ employees and replaced it with two lines.

As tech workers, we create the tools that power the @nytimes. We work together, build together, and are ready to vote yes for our union. If management insists on engaging in Unfair Labor Practices and dividing us, we will have no choice but to walk out together tomorrow at noon.
