A huge thank you to former MCN union employees who dedicated long hours to this win. Thank you to all of our supporters! We would not have been here without all of you. We look forward to seeing other nonprofits unionizing as it will move our sector forward. Solidarity! 4/4
Thank you @NewsGuildMN! The 3 year journey has been challenging yet so rewarding. Candace for helping us negotiate this contract and carrying us to the end. And Rica for your organizing skills and endless hours of zoom calls listening to and encouraging us to pull through. 3/4

I'm traveling to Minneapolis today to chat with a group of incredible young organizers fighting for dignity & respect on the job at breweries, nonprofits, in the classroom & beyond.
I hope you'll tune in this afternoon! RSVP now: https://t.co/9xrfihSajd
