I'm still waiting on backpay from the university job I worked more than a year ago! Please share to spread the word so @nyuniversity pays its employees fairly.

[Jake Bittle @jake_bittle]

I love working for @grist and I'm proud to be part of the @GristUnion. We’ve made great progress over the past several months and are so close to securing a contract that will make this an even more supportive and inclusive place. ✊

[Grist Union @GristUnion]

Grist Union update! We've covered a lot of ground over the past few months — AND we're grateful that we were starting from a place of mutual trust and respect. As we make our way toward a final contract, we wanted to share some of the reasons why we're proud to be #Gristers 🧵

[NewsGuild of New York @nyguild]

Good morning. New York is a Union Town!

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

The needle often knows before we do. But this was management’s choice. We’ll see you at 1 p.m. for our picket and rally with @NYGuild, @NewsGuild and CWAUnion!

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

You are all Queen Bees in our hearts, but we are sick of management’s games. Stand with us on the digital picket line!

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

If @NYTimesGuild members don't have a deal soon, we’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Pull out a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

Good morning, @nytimes. We solved today's crossword for you.

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

A company on track for an annual operating profit of $320 million or more should be paying its employees a minimum of $65,000 a year. The @nytimes thinks this is unreasonable. The @NYTimesGuild does not.

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

After 20 months of negotiations, enough is enough: Today, more than 1,000 @NYTimesGuild members pledged to walk out if @nytimes does not agree to a complete and fair contract by Dec. 8.

CUNY IS WALKING OUT!

On Thursday, Hunter College and the GC will stage walk-outs for abortion rights. This is part of @GradAction's National #StudentStrike in protest of Dobbs and anti-trans laws.

We want safe, free, legal abortion. But we also have CUNY-specific demands. 1/

[Freelance Solidarity Project @FSP_NWU]

We're thrilled to announce a new set of standards for freelancers @thenation, including guaranteed timely payment, pay minimums, and access to the @paythewriter grievance process. Organizing freelancers can be challenging, but we're getting it done. ✊ https://t.co/kaPr7llaNs

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

Today, @nytimesguild is releasing a report on persistent racial disparities in performance evaluations at @nytimes.

For nearly 2 years, management has chosen to downplay the problem instead of addressing it.

[NBC Guild @nbcnewsguild]

While @NBCNews claims to prioritize flexibility in its RTO plan, it has quietly been terminating contracts for remote employees because hybrid work no longer fits the business model.

They want us in the office and are pushing coworkers out the door on the way toward that goal.

[The Nation @thenation]

A year after voting to unionize, 52% of workers still don't have their first contract. But it doesn't have to be this way. Our Strikes Correspondent, Jane McAlevey (@rsgexp) explains 3 ways workers can win contracts, faster.

[The Nation @thenation]

You won your vote to start a union. Now comes the hard part. A year after workers vote to unionize, more than half still don’t have a contract. How do we change that? Our Strikes Correspondent, @rsgexp explains 3 ways workers can win contracts faster.
