Today we're joining @WGAEast in demanding the Marion County Police department be held accountable for its raid of the Marion County Record in Kansas.
Screenshot of statement that reads: Joint Statement on Police Raid at the Marion County Record / The Writers Guild of America, East and The NewsGuild-CWA demand the Marion County Police department be held accountable for its raid of the Marion County Record newspaper in Marion, Kansas. The officers and officials who seized computers, phones and other data from reporters and the newspaper’s offices engaged in activities that are an affront to the constitutionally protected rights of journalists and news media workers. Press freedom is a cornerstone of our democracy that is enshrined in the First Amendment of our Constitution and our unions will do everything to protect and preserve a free and independent press.

We are pleased to announce that today we have reached a tentative agreement on our collective bargaining unit contract. This process has been a significant reminder of how powerful and important Unions are in the workforce. We thank all who have supported us since day 1! ✊

Workers are on strike at Insider and the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette again this week. Do not click on those links. Do not cross a picket line. And do not scab. Show compassion by fighting for others!

A union isn't an outside organization that comes in to help you, a union is YOU and your colleagues coming together to empower each other as a collective. And trust me, that's way more powerful.

We just got the report back from the North Pole, and WOW, y'all really made #StrikeSanta happen. 🎁🎁🎁 We are *enormously* grateful to everyone who donated to support striking Pittsburgh Post-Gazette workers and their families this holiday season. Each gift is an act of love!
