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.
There is now a digital and physical picket line outside G/O Media. Industry colleagues, please support @gmgunion by not crossing either. Learn more about why we're striking at https://t.co/fUKhWRwu3M #gmgstrike
Sending so much love and support to the incredibly hardworking A.V. Club staff for standing up for what’s right. Some of the most talented people in the biz - seriously couldn’t be prouder to have organized and worked alongside them. They deserved better than GO Media.
UPDATE: The seven A.V. Club workers in Chicago have decided to take their union-contract-protected severances rather than move to L.A. without a cost-of-living adjustment. A statement from the union (1/X):
🚨BREAKING: UC-AFT’s Executive Board served notice to UC management that lecturers will strike on Nov. 17 and 18 against unfair labor practices committed by the @UofCalifornia. #UCUnfair#WeTeachUC (1/4)
The Onion Union stands with the @WGAEast in their call of for an end to Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs). We need to stop silencing victims, and stop protecting oppressors. #NoNDAs
The majority of Onion Union members call Chicago home. We condemn Chicago PD for the murder of Adam Toledo. We condemn Mayor Lori Lightfoot for her unequivocal support of CPD. Our thoughts are with Adam, his family, his community, and our city.
So proud to be a part of this unit and the bargaining committee that worked to secure this contract. Pandemic bargaining was not easy and this feels GOOD!
The Onion Union is proud to have ratified our second contract! Our new 3-year agreement is the result of incredible solidarity among our members throughout a negotiating process complicated by the pandemic and remote communication.
Kim Crabbe was the first Black Woman to represent the @USWNT. An American soccer hero who blazed the trail for so many of our favorite footballers today. This is her story, which airs tonight at 5:30 p.m. ET on The MiB Show. @CoachKimCrabbe@NBCSportsSoccer#BlackHistoryMonth
Today, the New Yorker Union is undertaking a twenty-four-hour work stoppage in protest of @newyorker management's egregious wage proposal. Our statement: https://t.co/PAVqoPdqDW
We bargained for 6 hours tonight but did not reach a deal. We're down to a few key issues. With only 2 more days until our contract expires, we're doing everything we can to get a contract that’s fair for our members. We’re almost there!
We love meeting with our members, even if it’s not the same as in person. This meeting last night gave us the energy we need to get to the finish line!
