I would like to shout an official welcome to @IAPE1096 and @newsguild. Let's get to bargaining your first contract!

[Schneps Union @SchnepsUnion]

Schneps workers WON our union! After our NLRB election today!!

We’re so excited to be a part of the NewsGuild. Tell Schneps management to join us at the bargaining table and stop trying to exclude workers from our union now!

[Schneps Union @SchnepsUnion]

We also made headlines in the @RedHookStar ! Thanks to this hyperlocal paper for detailing how much we all care about our work and why reporters behind the many Schneps outlets like amNY, BX Times, LI Press, QNS, need to have a say in their direction

[Schneps Union @SchnepsUnion]

Our union effort was covered by @TheNY_Groove - thanks for beautifully telling the city about our fight for sustainable pay, better benefits/healthcare + editorial integrity across amNY, QNS, BX Times, BK Paper, Brownstoner, Ll Press + more. Take a read!

The non-response we got from our CEO @joshschneps after asking to meet face to face to come to an agreement over our union formation’s next phase. Schneps has so far refused to recognize our union. But they have another day to show leadership + listen to the majority of our unit.

[NYC CLC, AFL-CIO @CentralLaborNYC]

Schneps employees are forming a union! An overwhelming majority of the eligible staff of the Schneps Media Network of hyperlocal news outlets spanning NYC & LI have announced the creation of a union.

[Sadie Brown @sadieebrown]

I love my job. But I am not paid a fair wage and I struggle to pay bills, afford food or decent healthcare.

Schneps has an opportunity to collaborate with our union and completely transform the lives of dozens of hardworking reporters.

[Schneps Union @SchnepsUnion]

We smashed our original signature goal of 200, and now we've increased it to 1,000! Sign our petition to support our union efforts! #SchnepsUnion

A lot of great journalists at Schneps deserve a lot more than they are getting - and so does the city

[Jessy Edwards @jessyednews]

Let's go Schneps reporters!! The incredibly hardworking journalists at Schneps-owned pubs are offered horrible health-insurance & salaries as low as ~$40K. We are so lucky to have them covering NYC despite these conditions. Congrats to the new union!

[Hell Gate *subscribe today!* @HellGateNY]

In recent years, Schneps Media has built the biggest local-news empire in the NYC metro area. But it's paying its journalists so poorly they say they can barely afford grocerices.

This morning, journalists across Schneps publications announced they're unionizing.

[Kirstyn Brendlen @KPBrend]

So excited and proud to stand with my colleagues to demand better for ourselves and our readers. Support us in our ask for voluntary recognition! https://t.co/EnMjAsy4IU
