People, help Mike. RT : Fuck, I can’t pick up my inhaler because my health insurance has been cut off due to the fact that I couldn’t make this month’s premium. I don’t have the $60 out of pocket to buy the inhaler I desperately need to breathe

Erie, PA: It’s the biggest manufacturing industry labor strike in America and it’s in Day 8. The union members are picketing 24/7 outside, in sometimes freezing temps. It’s no joke. These men (and women) are determined.

The journalists of the Tribune and our community pubs are our union, no one else. A decade or more of insufficient pay, sliding health insurance + quality of life policies and a shrinking newsroom is enough. We’re demanding better from , so is . Recognize it.

Congress has excluded minor-league baseball players from minimum wage protections. The federal minimum wage is just $7.25 per hour. This is a really good piece that gets to the absurd logic of that carveout: that these workers aren't actually working

The refusal to not allow new members to vote in recently organized shops could benefit Luzner, who is more well-known in legacy NewsGuild shops; whereas @gaufera is more well known in newer shops

The rule would effectively disenfranchise approximately 2,000 reporters, nearly 10% of the members in what is expected to be the most closely contested NewsGuild election in a decade.

Great inside look at how the Washington Post's union was broken in the 70s and a reminder of why you can never, never stop organizing your union. Also it's always a good time to remember Bob Woodward was a scab. Fuck you Bob Woodward. Anyhow good piece:

“80% of the newsroom has signed union cards.” “Hmmmmm, have you thought about how the union cannot GUARANTEE you a raise!?” “Yes, but only b/c you would refuse us.” “Hmmmmm, an OUTSIDE 3rd PARTY...” “Are you done? My fifth roommate is locked out, I’m 33.”
