Software dev at NYT, proud member of @NYTGuildTech. Unions are my special interest!

WE FIXED IT: Obviously our successful rally had an effect on @NYDailyNews management, who felt compelled to “write” an op-ed. Unfortunately it’s full of mischaracterizations and missing key facts. As journalists we couldn’t let that slide, so we got out our red pens…

[Vicki V Crosson @viccro]

@ZOSUnited @CWAUnion Congrats! And solidarity! ✊

[Vicki V Crosson @viccro]

Yes yes yes yes yes!

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

WE VOTED YES! (THREAD)

We are thrilled to share that our members have voted to ratify our new three-year collective bargaining agreement with @NYtimes… (1/3)

[NewsGuild of New York @nyguild]

[Vicki V Crosson @viccro]

Thrilled that we could make this happen! ✊

[NewsGuild of New York @nyguild]

We are SO PROUD of our @NYTGuildTech members - this is exactly what union solidarity is

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

✊🎉WE HAVE A DEAL 🎉✊

We are thrilled to announce we have reached a tentative three-year agreement with @NYtimes, pending ratification by our members. There’s so much to share but here are just a few highlights of the deal:

[Vicki V Crosson @viccro]

IT HAPPENED! We stood together and we got a great deal that's going to protect us through the next 3 years AND continue to build towards strong future contracts!

[NewsGuild of New York @nyguild]

WE HAVE A DEAL: We have reached a tentative agreement with the @nytimes for our @NYTGuildTech members. Read more here...

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

We are holding a Twitch stream tonight at 8pm ET. Join us to hear about what we're striking for and play the games our unit made without crossing the picket line! #breakyourstreak

Hot: STRIKES
Not: STREAKS

That's right! While we are on strike, we're asking for a boycott on games and cooking! Break that wordle streak in solidarity with us while we fight for a fair contract.

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

We are on ULP strike. We gave @nytimes management months of notice of our strike deadline, we made ourselves available around the clock, but the company has decided that our members aren’t worth enough to agree to a fair contract and stop committing unfair labor practices.

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

We are ready to fight for the contract we deserve, and we are sacrificing our paychecks to do so. Please donate to our strike fund.

We're teetering on the brink of a strike over election week! If you can help, please take a look at our gofundme.

Management still has time to wrap this up with some good faith bargaining...but we need to get this done!

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

We will need financial support to hold the line, please consider donating and sharing our Strike Solidarity Fund: https://t.co/61mzpa3seI

[NYC CLC, AFL-CIO @CentralLaborNYC]

.@nytimes mgmt has slow-walked bargaining & attacked the @NYTGuildTech every step of the way since workers first announced their intent to unionize in '21.

Tell the Times to stop their anti-union tactics and agree to a fair contract with Times Tech: https://t.co/fEp4Y8th2g #1u

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

We are in year 3 of bargaining with @nytimes. Our members deserve a fair contract, and the company has 33 days to help us get there.

[Vicki V Crosson @viccro]

It's honestly astounding

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

Today Hannah Yang, @nytimes Chief Growth Officer, sent out a bargaining “update” to our members, explaining that ‘While this may not be realized, currently, compensation is not and has never been guaranteed for unit members.’

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

Our friends in the @NYTimesGuild have passed a resolution in strong support of our strike authorization with a clear message to @NYTimes management: “The best way to avoid a disruption to our work is for management to offer a fair contract as quickly as possible.”

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

THERE IS NO DEBATE: We have approved a strike, with just weeks until Election Day. Read more here:

[Vicki V Crosson @viccro]

We're committed to standing together until we have a fair contract! ✊

[New York Times Tech Guild @NYTGuildTech]

By a vote of 524-28, 95% of our members have just authorized a strike. As we head into the final weeks of this Election season, and on this important Debate day, we want the @nytimes to hear us: We are ready to do whatever it takes to get to a fair deal.
