Welcome to the Washington-Baltimore News Guild family!

#WEFILED ! 1199 In House Staff filed to form our first-ever staff union with Washington-Baltimore News Guild! You can support our historic effort to win a voice in our own workplace by calling on our 1199 leaders George Gresham to live our union values & voluntarily recognize our staff union #UnionsForAll

Today we, 1199 In House Staff, asked 1199SEIU💫 leadership to live our union values, listen to the voices of a #supermajority of staff and voluntarily recognize our union! We’re organizing our workplace to make sure that everyone who works at 1199 feels represented and empowered.

Our first bargaining session is today! We are excited at the prospect of productive and collaborative conversations as we work to establish our first contract. 💙

ICYMI: After the #UFCWLunchOut yesterday, we officially terminated our contract.

We are ready to take the action necessary to get the contract we DESERVE - what about you UFCW?

Happening NOW #UFCWLunchOut

🚨Starting NOW, we are on a LUNCH OUT to protest UFCW’s refusal to negotiate fair & equitable wages, modern telework policies, & more. 🚨

After 2 months of working under an expired contract, we are STARVING for some action.

#UFCWLunchOut

We stand with our @UFCWGuild Siblings at #UFCW who walked out over lunch today to protest their employer’s refusal to give them fair and equitable wages, telework policies, and more. Shouldn’t a union be a model employer? #UFCW LunchOut

Hey UFCW, have you made lunch plans yet?

Allow us to introduce ourselves: we're the Sightline Media Union, and we're unionizing to create a stronger community of professional journalists producing national security industry news for Defense News and Military Times.

Note to AAJC management:

1. Keep your promises.
2. Bargain in good faith.
