We’re committed to building long-term relationships with the communities we serve. We need your help. We’re losing @LAist colleagues and potential hires. One reason: our company doesn't pay enough to live in L.A. Costs are rising. Our wages should, too. 🧵 #WeMakeKPCCLAist #1u

Can you believe we’ve been negotiating our first contract for almost a year? 😳 Neither can we. 😅 We’re back at it today, and we’ll work as long as it takes to get our @marketplace colleagues a fair contract and living wages. #WeMakeMarketplace ✊

We’re very excited to announce our union and KPBS management have ratified a new contract. It includes one-time $3,500 bonuses and permanent raises of between 7% and 26% for all our members! The greatest raises are going to the people who need them most. 1/
