Last week, the FW Professional Firefighter Local 440 donated $10,000 to our strike fund. This donation allows us to continue working to get a FAIR contract from @mcclatchy and we cannot thank these firefighters enough. As they said, one union’s fight is a fight for all unions

We went on strike because the Blocks went too far when they forced people off their health care. We’re staying on strike because we have each others’ backs. That includes you. They need shown what happens when they disrespect us, our work, & Pittsburgh. bit.ly/UsVsTheBlocks

At the @PacketGuild, the union went public two years ago this week. It was the first modern voluntary recognition by @mcclatchy, and the first newspaper union in South Carolina. Now, the state has a handful of successful news unions and the guild has a contract!

Today I’m joining my Miami Herald colleagues in a one-day work stoppage as we demand a fair contract from @McClatchy. We need to protect local journalism. I support My colleagues’ requests for fair pay, maternity leave and reimbursement for the high costs of equipment & travel.

A contract I helped negotiate is finally done, and it means money in the pockets of hardworking journalists in the Lowcountry today and for years to come. Couldn't be prouder of @PacketGuild

Two years ago, a group of Packeteers envisioned a future where someone could start at the @islandpacket and be paid well enough to put down roots, establish their career there and continue serving the community. That is so much more possible because of this news. Cheers! 🥂
