Thanks for all your support. It means a lot. We’re still trying to bargain with management over the cuts they announced earlier this month.
Our management says these layoffs were unavoidable. But they won’t give us a full picture of the company’s finances to prove it.

We know they reached a separation agreement with @EmCollective months ago, which included an “additional substantial contribution.” We asked about it in a bargaining session, and they were silent.

Now, they are forcing us to bargain in the dark over severance for their illegally implemented layoffs. We demand transparency, @dougmcgray and @chasnote.

This week has been tough. But here is one great way to show solidarity with our team:

Our management and @EmCollective agreed on plans for Emerson to sever ties with @CalSunday / @PopUpMag in August, according to @nytimes.
We should have learned about those plans immediately at the bargaining table.
We learned about them on Monday. nytimes.com/2020/10/07/busin…

This was a short-sighted move by @EmCollective, which cut and run on a beloved media company when the going got tough. And these were illegal and unbargained cuts by management. They have to bargain with our members, full stop, no excuses. x.com/popupguild/status/1313…

Today @newyorkerunion is undertaking a half-day work stoppage. We demand a contract that reflects the value of our labor and the principles in our pages, and the foundation of that contract is #JustCauseNoExceptions.
