Nonprofit workers care about the work we do. That doesn't give our bosses the right to engage in union busting. We are organizing in a notoriously exploitative sector, and shit's hairy right now over at StoryCorps. Our CWA 1180 siblings need your support:

On 10/22/24, StoryCorps suddenly laid off a shop steward and other CWA 1180 union members in an overt act of retaliation.

We have instituted our own Zero Tolerance Policy. We will not be silenced until Bobby Kotick has been replaced as CEO, and continue to hold our original demand for Third-Party review by an employee-chosen source. We are staging a Walkout today. We welcome you to join us.

AT LAST! The NLRB confirmed that a SUPERMAJORITY of eligible workers want to form a union with @CWAUnion - WE WON! We look forward to working on a contract to protect & support the hard-working national staff of Audubon, & to supporting any other Audubon workers who want a union

Solidarity to @Defenders_staff as they fight for a more equitable, transparent, and just workplace. @Defenders refusal to voluntarily recognize #DefendersUnited is a sad and disappointing move. We urge @JClarkPrez to reconsider.

Outraged that @audubonsociety refuses card check, refuses an election they have been calling for, refuses to sign a neutrality agreement, and forces workers to the broken labor board. @audubonforall birdwatchingdaily.com/news/c…

Phares tried to join the trans employee resource group. He was told it was a "privilege" not for him. Google's PR dept. says that's okay b/c contract workers must obtain approval from direct employers to join ERGs. 700+ Alphabet workers disagree. sfgate.com/sf-culture/articl…

Today workers @Google announced they’re unionizing. This is historic. Welcome to the CWA family, @AlphabetWorkers❤️ We applaud @AlphabetWorkers & encourage all workers at Google to join the union. It's time for workers to build power and be a real check on corporate tech 👇

We're Alphabet workers. We’ve been organizing for over a year, & we’re finally ready to share why. This morning, we're announcing #AWU, the first union open to *all* workers at any Alphabet company. Every worker deserves a union—including tech workers. nytimes.com/2021/01/04/techn…

The creation of the union, a rarity in Silicon Valley, follows years of increasing outspokenness by Google workers. Executives have struggled to handle the change.

The vision of the Green New Deal is a vision of a good union job for any worker who wants one. We’re so excited to see Google workers are bravely paving the way for unions for all tech and digital workers.

If you know an Alphabet employee, please reach out, make sure they know about their union and ask them to join! Friend to friend organizing is powerful, effective, and important! It’s how our unions grow.

We’re grateful to the labor movement and the workers and unions that came before us that made this win possible. We also know we can’t stop climate change without strong unions and a strong labor movement.
