We support @fp_union as they return to bargaining today to win fair wages, equitable parental leave, and stronger diversity commitments ✊
We’re returning to bargaining again today. Management has yet to meet our demands on fair wages, equitable parental leave, and stronger diversity commitments. We’re looking forward to discussing these issues with them in good faith.

We stand in solidarity with @PostGuild, especially as our members are also fighting for a fair contract at @ForeignPolicy. Respect the picket line!
Our 24-hour strike has begun. For the first time in 50 years, @washingtonpost workers are walking off the job because our company is refusing to bargain in good faith and breaking the law.

We’re excited to be back at the bargaining table today in our fight for a fair contract. @ForeignPolicy's journalism wouldn’t be possible without the @WBNG32035—and it’s time for management to step up to the plate to respect our members’ rights ✊

Good for ⁦⁦@ForeignPolicy⁩ to suggest a balanced list for those who seek more genuine understanding of this tragic conflict than broadly available in western media. How else to begin to imagine just and durable solutions?

Today is our first day at the bargaining table fighting for a new and improved contract—one that recognizes the hard work, dedication, and talent of @ForeignPolicy’s editorial team. FP works because the guild works.

President Joe Biden’s pledge to withdraw all U.S. troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11 will bring an end to the United States’ longest war, two decades after the terrorist attacks that provoked it. What will this decision mean? We asked our experts. 📸 | Mario Tama/Getty Images
