It's been 454 days since we started negotiations with @Society4Science. That's great news for expecting giraffes. Not so much for the @snmediaguild workers waiting on a fair contract. Sign our petition to let
CEO @mayaajmera know you stand with us! [Link in comments.]

[Karen Kwon | 권영아 @ykarenkwon]

Happy pub day to @BiologyCarly! I reviewed her latest book, The Salmon Cannon and the Levitating Frog, for @ScienceNews' June issue. I love "silly" science! https://t.co/e3CfNV46rF

What do journalism and life expenses have in common? You can't put them on pause. No one at @snmediaguild wants to drag this out. We just want a fair contract.

#UnionSolidarity #FairContractNow

[Karen Kwon | 권영아 @ykarenkwon]

Now, more than ever, the work that my colleagues and I do at @ScienceNews matters. But as the days go by without a fair contract, we wonder if @Society4Science values us and our work. Do you value good science journalism? Then support the workers of Science News Media Group.

⚠️ 404 Error: Fair Contract Not Found. ⚠️
Status: 404 days since entering negotiations with @Society4Science. If this error persists, we recommend refreshing the commitment to equity and respect for workers. #faircontractnow

[Karen Kwon | 권영아 @ykarenkwon]

I've been working at @ScienceNews for a little over 1.5 years , and the contract negotiation between the @snmediaguild and @Society4Science has been dragging on for most of that time! FAIR CONTRACT NOW ✊ #unionstrong

[Science News Media Guild @snmediaguild]

This week we're talking pay. For years our employees have received annual raises that lag behind the rising cost-of-living. Meanwhile, our CEO @MayaAjmera has been getting raises as large as some employees’ entire salaries! We deserve fair pay, @Society4Science.

#worthmore ✊

[Science News Media Guild @snmediaguild]

It’s been 500 days since the workers of Science News Media Group unionized. We still do not have a contract. We’re seeing little progress negotiating with the @Society4Science but we’re not giving up.

Last week, @astrolisa headed to the local-to-her meeting of the AAAS to report on how scientists are reacting to recent federal funding cuts — just one of the many awesome things about having a distributed workforce. @Society4Science https://t.co/RfSeLupFSn

@goes_by_kim @highcountrynews Congrats!!

Love to see a research-backed pro-union post 👏💖

[Science News Media Guild @snmediaguild]

📈 After tracking some 4,000 workers born between 1935 and 1965, researchers found that more time in a union predicts lower mortality rates. Each additional year as a union member decreased odds of mortality by ~1.5%. Another reason to support unions!

[Science News Media Guild @snmediaguild]

It’s been 421 days since the workers of Science News Media Group unionized. But we still don’t have a contract 😩 We hope 2025 is the year that we finally get a fair contract! @Society4Science

We don't want a lot for Christmas. There is just one thing we need: a fair contract. It has been 394 days since the workers of Science News Media Group unionized. We’re ready!

[Gus Saltonstall @GusSaltonstall]

Shocking Upper West Side bagel news.

Absolute Bagels is "closed for good," multiple employees said on Thursday.

The storefront is already shuttered.

Unclear the reasoning for the closure but it is not the health department.

“There are many problems. The owner is old.”

[Science News Media Guild @snmediaguild]

We’re working to negotiate a fair contract for our workers and remain hopeful we can achieve one.

We’re asking for remote work for all who choose, pay transparency/equity, AI protections, better parental and bereavement leave, sick time & more.

Let’s do this! @Society4Science

[Jon Schleuss @gaufre]

We’re on strike at the New York Times. No playing Wordle, the crossword or any of the games. Stand with @NYTGuildTech in demanding a fair first contract! https://t.co/fJM6iwL81W

Very offended by today’s NYT Connections as a former Oklahoma resident. That didn’t stop me from solving it in one go, though 😏
