Sign on to let the Street Roots' board of directors know that the community supports the organization: for its newspaper, its advocacy efforts, and most of all, its vendors.

Please sign on to urge Street Roots’ board of directors to promptly recognize the workers union.

Street Roots' board of directors notified the NLRB that it will not voluntarily recognize the Street Roots Workers Guild on Dec. 9, and violated federal labor law by failing to post notice of our election by the end of the day yesterday. 1/

These 2 employees do not hold those powers. 4/

Street Roots' board did not meet our 5 pm deadline for voluntary recognition, but we are ready to work with them any time they are ready. @CWA7901 sent our petition documents to the NLRB today, but we will rescind it if the board recognizes our union voluntarily.

Street Roots staff recently announced their intent to unionize with CWA, with eligible workers voting unanimously in favor of the decision. Staff say they hope to receive voluntary recognition from the social justice nonprofit's board.

From one unionized workplace to another, thanks @portlandmercury!

“The announcement makes Street Roots the third Portland news organization to form a union in 2024 alone, joining the Mercury and OPB, whose unions were each voluntarily recognized...”

Welcome to the #OregonLabor family, @SRguild_! It's incredible to see talented journalists like you stand together to build power at work.

[Portland Jobs with Justice 📢↙️↙️↙️ @JwJpdx]

Congrats to the workers at Street Roots, who produce fearless labor and advocacy journalism, for seeking a union in their own right!

[Guy Oron @GuyOron]

Congrats to @StreetRoots workers for unionizing! I hope leadership extends voluntary recognition promptly. Street Roots is a crucial news source for the entire Portland, Oregon region. Its journalists were among the first to cover the Grants Pass case with rigor and compassion.
