[SPLC Union @SPLCUnion]

In 3 successive votes, @splcenter staff used the tools of workplace democracy to express their lack of faith in SPLC leadership. Each time, they gave Margaret Huang and SPLC management a failing grade.

That is why we are now calling for the Board to remove Margaret Huang as CEO.

We live in tough times, but we’re ready for the fight ahead!

Jeff Bezos gave $75 million to support Melania Trump's vanity film, but he doesn't have the money for the hundreds of journalists he laid off at The Post today.

Democracy dies with Bezos – unless we fight back. Here's how you can help:

1/ READY TO STRIKE: More than 80% of our members signed a pledge saying we are prepared to strike unless @propublica agrees to a fair contract.

[Washington Post Guild @PostGuild]

So many have given to The Post Guild’s fundraising effort, and we are floored. But we also ask you to consider supporting the fundraiser for our international staff and staff in our bureaus who aren’t Guild eligible. They are absolutely vital to coverage. https://t.co/aPFZpbtFkS

[Washington Post Guild @PostGuild]

Hundreds of our members have been laid off without rhyme or reason. Those who remain are reeling. One of our own started this GoFundMe. If you are inclined, feel free to share or donate. https://t.co/i1ns6fNqAf

Solidarity with our union siblings at The Washington Post.

[Washington-Baltimore News Guild @WBNG32035]

The Washington-Baltimore News Guild strongly condemns the layoffs announced today at The Washington Post. These cuts represent yet another blow to a newsroom that has already been pushed to its limits and a disservice to the readers who rely on The Post for rigorous, independent journalism.

[Washington-Baltimore News Guild @WBNG32035]

#SaveThePost rally on Thursday ✊

Join us at noon ET to show @JeffBezos that we are united in saying no cuts to The Washington Post!

[Washington-Baltimore News Guild @WBNG32035]

The Washington-Baltimore News Guild unequivocally condemns the FBI search of @postguild member Hannah Natanson's home and seizure of her electronics by federal agents.

Such actions represent a dangerous escalation that threatens press freedom and the fundamental role of journalists in holding power accountable.

On January 9, ICE arrested a member of our union, the Minnesota Newspaper & Communications Guild, as part of Operation Metro Surge.

He has been transferred to a detention facility in Texas, where he is awaiting action on his petition for habeas corpus: https://t.co/IvM2R5c0Qi

[AFL-CIO ✊ @AFLCIO]

The Trump admin is using AI to scan visa-holders’ social media for dissent. This is a flat-out attack on our first amendment rights, to satisfy their mass deportation agenda.

America’s unions will fight to stop them from suppressing workers’ freedom of speech.

[Washington-Baltimore News Guild @WBNG32035]

Over the weekend, WBNG members marched in Selma for the 60th Bridge Crossing Jubilee, honoring workers & civil rights leaders who came before us.

60 years ago, they faced brutal attacks for demanding voting rights, and we march in their footsteps—still organizing and refusing to back down.

🔴“largest deportation operation in American history,” the cadre of attorneys at Southern Poverty Law Center #SPLC who amounted to first line of legal defense for undocumented immigrants is NO MORE — due to SPLC President & CEO @MargaretLHuang

[SPLC Union @SPLCUnion]

.@cnn covers SPLC’s catastrophic decision to layoff its entire immigration staff in June.

SPLC says it did so because they want to focus on “broad, systematic issues.” So why can’t SPLC executives explain how they plan to do so? https://t.co/QxtALCZByN

[Guild of Autistic Self-Advocate Staff (GASS) @AutStaffGuild]

ASAN staff is uniting to form the Autistic Self Advocacy Union! Today, we have officially asked management to voluntarily recognize our union. We hope they choose to do so soon!

[Washington Post Guild @PostGuild]

A statement from the Guild on today's unconscionable layoffs at The Washington Post.

[SPLC Union @SPLCUnion]

There’s a lot of challenging work ahead of us. If we remember that we’re stronger together, we can make it through.

Let’s keep fighting for workplace justice in 2025 and beyond!

[SPLC Union @SPLCUnion]

We’re thankful for your solidarity during such a hard year.

Please consider making a donation to the SPLC Union Layoff Fund to help our colleagues still struggling after the June layoffs. Give them the gift of financial security to start off the new year: https://t.co/D9eMg2IaYJ
