Today, an overwhelming majority of @stlpublicradio's on and off-air staff are taking a historic step in becoming the first @NPR radio station in #Missouri to form a union, with @CWAUnion as our bargaining representative. #WeMakeSTLPR (🧵)

[CWA @CWAUnion]

When workers organize, we win.

[St. Louis Public Radio Guild @stlprguild]

We apparently live rent free in some people’s minds.

Just a reminder: EVERYONE deserves a union because all workers should have a voice in their workplace and a seat at the table — with the microphone on.
