On Wednesday, members of Pratt Workers United and Friends of Pratt Library testified against budget cuts to @prattlibrary. #libraryworkers #InvestInLibraries

Don't forget to make it clear that you are attending, writing, or calling on behalf of Pratt Workers United.

You can also call 410-396-7073 or your council members. We're about to negotiate our first contract—budget cuts could stop us from winning higher pay and better working conditions, and improving the services that Pratt workers can provide to Baltimore.

The Enoch Pratt Free Library is facing budget cuts. Tonight at 6pm is Taxpayers Night at City Hall where residents can voice opposition to these cuts. You can sign up to speak (in person or online) or submit written testimony : bbmr.baltimorecity.gov/fy24boe

"As public library workers, we are purveyors of free education, literacy, shelter, and access to information, and we need to have a say in how we provide these necessary and over-commodified resources," said Hirsch. #PrattWorkersUnited wmar2news.com/news/local-new…

The moment you learn you won your union by a LANDSLIDE! 218-12!! #PrattWorkersUnited 🥳🥳🥳
