With 10 days until our contract expires, our unit is not willing to settle for less. We're standing together until we reach a fair deal.

We received our first counterproposals from management today with disappointing language — including no guaranteed wage increases this year and rollbacks of hard-fought language on diversity and severance. We stand united and ready to fight for the contract we deserve.

Still no guidance from the USDA on whether partial SNAP benefits will be paid in November. USDA said in court they would. Then THE PRESIDENT said they would not. Then the press secretary contradicted the president. Maybe the agency responsible for the benefits could chime in?

My last story for HuffPost (sniff!) up now: how DOGE access to Trsy's payment systems could also set up GOP to fulfill a dream some have had for years: "prioritizing" which bills to pay -- ie, defaulting on some -- when debt limit is reached. huffpost.com/entry/doge-tre…

A statement from the HuffPost Union @WGAEast on this week’s job cuts

Can confirm Jonathan is the best at walking the confused (me) through some economics stuff. A true gem

After over a decade at @HuffPost, I’ve decided to take a buyout in the latest round of layoffs. It's tough to leave a place I love & I’m so grateful for all the people here, & all the faith they’ve put in me through the years.
