The NLRB has authorized its Region 06 Pittsburgh office to seek an injunction in the 18-month-long news workers strike. Our Bob Batz Jr. and Steve Mellon chronicle how some strikers heard the news: unionprogress.com/2024/04/19/its…

We are thrilled that the NLRB announced it’s seeking an injunction against the post-gazette.com. The PG could've avoided this by simply agreeing to dignified terms with us & our striking union siblings @cwaunion & PPPWU at any point in the last 18 months.. pghguild.com/2024/04/19/lab…

Today at noon marks the year and a half anniversary of Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh 🗞 journalists being on strike with other PG news workers. Our Steve Mellon writes about solidarity: 'We’ve been able to hold the line because we weren’t alone.' unionprogress.com/2024/04/18/wer…

This is exactly what Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has been trying to do since day 1, and this is why we've been screaming for 18 months that workers (journalists especially) not supporting strikers would be cutting their own throats. These companies want to ELIMINATE the unions entirely

The Teamsters need to answer why they made a secret deal with bosses to sell out union workers that put their jobs, their health, and their safety, on the line to support striking Teamsters.

Don’t have your business agent hide behind members like a rat coward.
