With bargaining for our first ever union contract heating up, this Thursday we're proud to (virtually) wear red and participate in this longstanding @CWAUnion tradition!

We couldn’t have done this without the support of our coworkers unionized with @CWG_Workers, organizers in @CODE_CWA, and the union officers in @CWALocal1400 and @CWADistrict1 who were mentors and advocates in helping us bargain a great contract.

Solidarity to @wgbh_cwa1400 workers. This is a loss for journalism in the Boston area.
Excerpt from the article: "On Wednesday, newsroom union steward Zoe Mathews, said she and others in the newsroom felt "blindsided" and that the layoffs had been done without discussion with the union. 'Over the course of the past few months, when we have had all-staff meetings with organization leadership, we in the newsroom were not unaware of the financial situation at GBH, but I'm shocked that management has decided to make cuts from the newsroom and not explore other options,' said Mathews."

Our show open @BosPublicRadio today, as we hear of layoffs in the newsroom - through word of mouth from our colleagues, not from management.

WHEN WE FIGHT, WE WIN: We are excited to announce that we have a tentative agreement with @condenast on our first contract. Our pledge to do ‘whatever it takes’ ahead of the #metgala2024 moved the company and our progress at the bargaining table kicked into high gear…

It’s not a wild idea to ask executives at progressive orgs to reduce their pay to save movement infrastructure, pass it on.

Union busting is disgusting @BenJealous. No more layoffs until executive staff at the @SierraClub take paycuts.
