Fill out this petition to tell @audubonsociety CEO @DrElizabethGray and the rest of our leadership to stop spending money on union busting and to bargain fairly with us instead actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

Wow @audubonsociety just continues to embarrass itself. Their heinous management practices should really be a larger story in the bird community. So many of us support them (implicitly, financially, etc.), yet they are completely fucking over their workforce at every opportunity.
Congratulations to CEO @DrElizabethGray for getting @audubonsociety onto @NYCComptroller’s Employer Wall of Shame.
Enough is enough. Let’s settle a fair contract once and for owl.
I love my job, coworkers, & landowners I work with. I 💯 believe what we do will make a difference in bird conservation.
I don’t love that my employer would rather challenge the constitutionality of laws meant to protect workers than treat us with dignity and respect.
NEWS: @audubonsociety is challenging the constitutionality of labor law in response to the @NLRB complaint that found management committed several Unfair Labor Practices.
Audubon CEO @DrElizabethGray joins Elon Musk and others in this anti-union approach. cwa-union.org/news/releases/…
We’re tired of management withholding our raises and benefits and then calling us the undedicated ones. Who treats their employees like this?
Recently listened to a research presentation that stated we are losing our grasslands to woody encroachment at the same rate we are losing them to development. Blew my mind.
Until recently, it seemed the iconic prairies of Chase County couldn’t possibly suffer the same fate as the MHK area. Satellite images revealed the sad truth. “We realized we weren’t immune to it,” rancher Daniel Mushrush said. “It was coming."

The Bird Union is fighting hard for us, and management is doing its best to keep us under a boot. There has not been enough news coverage of how bad (and in many ways illegal) Audubon is treating their employees. We’re stuck doing our own YouTube videos to detail our struggle.
At @audubonsociety, conservation science staff are some of our LOWEST-PAID workers. By design.
Management says they’re worried about “market leading” or overpaying compared to other peers in conservation. 🙄
Listen to union member @CarrieEGray’s response youtu.be/oTNOveZmVwE
Not only have they withheld earned raises, but they are threatening that unless we sign an unfinished contract by March 1, our raises from last year will never be given.
Diana was laid off in 2020 by @AudubonSociety. When they returned to Audubon—now as a Bird Unionist—they knew they didn't only want to protect birds but the people who protect birds, too. Stand in solidarity with workers like Diana by signing this letter: actionnetwork.org/letters/bi…

Nearly two years into contract negotiations our union is stronger than ever. We, the overwhelming majority of members, have pledged our unwavering resolve for fair, reliable salary increases, and better, more affordable healthcare.

Audubon CEO @DrElizabethGray yanked back annual pay raises for union members last month right before the holidays. Now her office is hiring for an image consultant who may be paid up to $195,000/year
Here’s some image advice for free, Dr. Gray: stop your union busting. Now.
ALT Screengrab of job description reading: Executive Image Management: Act as the CEO's brand strategist and trusted advisor, managing their image, reputation, and voice across all channels, including social media. Develop and execute strategies for CEO’s internal engagement with staff and Board. Draft messages and speeches, including for media engagements, as well as prepare talking points for public and private speaking engagements, including Board meetings.

.@DrElizabethGray, when will you stop union busting and negotiate a fair contract with @audubonsociety workers?
Withholding our annual pay increases (during the *holidays* no less) is cruel and exploitative.

If you were at the @audubonsociety Leadership Conference in Estes Park this past weekend, you may have seen this Bird Union billboard truck calling on CEO @DrElizabethGray to get serious about negotiating a fair contract for Audubon workers
😏🦆🪶✊

Bird Union members earned our annual pay increases through our labor this past year.
Audubon CEO @DrElizabethGray’s decision to yank these away (during the holidays no less) is a retaliatory and shameful attempt to bust the union while we negotiate our first contract.

To stand in solidarity with us, please sign and share this petition that goes directly to Audubon’s CEO, executive team, and national board. actionnetwork.org/letters/bi…

While @audubonsociety CEO @DrElizabethGray is at #COP28, management has informed us that they will be giving annual raises this year to everyone EXCEPT for Bird Union employees.

There's been lots of awful union-busting this year, but Audubon ranks high on the list in my mind. Just disgraceful conduct from management at every point in the process. I would have happily donated before, but not now, and not until they treat the union as a partner.

I stopped donating to Audubon last month and stuff like this is why!

Any of my wildlife peeps have a recommendation for a solid bird field guide for Cabo?
Has anyone used/seen the one by Howell and Webb (A Guide to the Birds of Mexico and Northern Central America)?
