AP's Pulitzer Prize-winning investigation is the kind of work that executive editor Julie Pace says “highlights the unique strengths of AP’s global, multiformat newsroom.”
But those strengths are being hacked away as management leaves U.S. staffers in the dark on impending layoffs.
Tell AP you stand with the guild if you want more reporting like the one honored today with journalism’s most prestigious award.

AP journalists in the U.S. are on the frontlines providing essential news coverage and documenting history each and every day.
AP was there because WE were there.
But more than 120 AP guild covered employees across the country were offered buyouts on April 6, and layoffs could be coming. And that makes the guild wonder, will AP be there for you in the future?
We need your help. Tell AP leadership to support the stories that matter and the people that cover them. Comment on stories you care about on apnews.com and on AP social media posts. Text AP’s Signal at +1 (202) 281-8604.
