Guild members at the Austin American-Statesman have 2.5% 401(k) match from Gannett, which is 2.5% more than non-unionized papers currently get. @Gannett expects a ‘thank you’ for providing a 1% match for its employees in July, & it wants Statesman employees to accept the same — even though it’s 60% less than our current benefit.

Seven days into our strike for fair pay and working conditions, we’re OVERWHELMED by the love from our community. $25K to keep us afloat. Countless visitors and fellow picketers. So many acts of solidarity. And we haven’t eaten so well in, well, ever.







Thank you to the local SEIU, Metro Justice, UAW 1097, Rochester Labor Council and others I may have missed for your support #unfairlaborpractice

Gannett during contract negotiations: #StatesmanOnStrike 🦇

The votes are in. It will be a total eclipse of the news starting Friday for @Statesman AustinNewsGuild members. Support our strike as we try to keep local news written by local people @gannett #saveourstatesman gofundme.com/f/ubcyf6-austi…

Journalists at the @Statesman are on strike in protest of @Gannett’s unfair labor practices and bad-faith bargaining. Please support us by sharing our strike fund, joining us at noon at the South Congress Bridge and not crossing the digital picket line. bit.ly/AASGuild
