We returned to the table today for our last session to find out that management refused to move on parental leave and COLAs.
This is unacceptable. We will fight as long as we have to. Fair COLAs now! Slate Contract Now! #1u

We're currently in our penultimate bargaining session and we're still energized to achieve the measures enumerated in the thread below. These basics aren't #SlatePitches. They're common sense, and they'll help us create a more equitable Slate.
Slate is known for its contrarian #SlatePitches; we even once published a polemic against pie. But the things our union is fighting for aren't counterintuitive at all. They're common sense. A thread🧵⬇️ (1/7)

Avoid the vague "officer-involved" for shootings and other cases involving police. Be specific about what happened. If police use the term, ask: How was the officer or officers involved? Who did the shooting? If the information is not available or not provided, spell that out.
