Happy Labor Day from the Pacific Northwest Newspaper Guild, with a HUGE thank you to media workers on the job today — and to all who work to keep our communities safe and informed.

Congrats to the members of @TBContentGuild who took their future into their own hands, voting 24-2 to unionize with the NewsGuild @CWAUnion. #1u

Psst... We know you guys missed us, and we have some big news!
The NLRB has certified the results of our union vote in Florida, so the staff members from @MiamiNewTimes are officially members of Voice Media Guild! Please show the newly unionized Miami staff some love!

Worth pointing out that The Columbian doesn't pay it's top reporters the wage minimum that is required to have a studio apartment here.
Gee I wonder why local journalism is dying?

I stand with the @ColumbianGuild bargaining committee today as they fight for policies that would bring more diversity to our newsroom and more transparency to our hiring practices.

I stand with @ColumbianGuild today as they bargain for policies to create a diverse newsroom. Black lives and Black stories matter. The newspaper needs to change its systems now, and improve its coverage of Black and POC communities in Clark County.

We better serve our community when we better reflect our community. Good journalism requires a diversity of voices, and I stand with the @ColumbianGuild as they fight for policies that would expand the voices heard in @thecolumbian newsroom.

Journalism is smarter and more powerful when people from a wide range of backgrounds are telling stories about their communities. // Standing w/ the @ColumbianGuild today while they’re at the bargaining table discussing newsroom diversity & more transparent hiring practices. ✊🏼 – at Seattle, WA

To be clear: The Guild condemns this cartoon and the decisions that led to its appearance, and we stand up for fair, comprehensive, sensitive and thoughtful reporting on marginalized people and communities. 3/3

The racist cartoon trivializes — and in fact mocks — the experiences of people of color. Guild workers cover those communities, and their jobs are made harder by this image. 2/3
The Columbian Guild retweeted
The cartoon that ran in @thecolumbian today about the response to the George Floyd murder investigation is a racist image that should offend everyone. On behalf of our members, we must note that the decision to run this cartoon was not made by anyone in our organization. 1/3

This is unbelievable. I've never heard of an employer requiring workers to use personal time to get paid on a holiday.
.@thecolumbian has the unusual policy of requiring its workers to use accrued time off to take federal holidays. We accrue both sick time and vacation time, but must use one or the other to get paid on days off many American workers receive with pay.

Eighty-four years ago today, The Newspaper Guild of Seattle was formed. Over time, we became The Pacific Northwest Newspaper Guild. On the birthday of our local, we are proud of our past, and excited for our future!
