Thank you @KVUE for covering our fight kvue.com/article/news/local/…
In case you missed it, we, the journalists of the @Statesman, joined @TexasTribune and @propublica guilds to fight for a contract. A year, two years, three years is too long @TexasAFLCIO
It takes less than a minute to sign the petition! Your local @statesman journalists are at the bargaining table with @Hearst to ensure protections and investments in the Austinites who deliver the news you need. #saveourstatesman
Hey Austin! New year, same stuff at the bargaining table. We need YOUR HELP to advocate for your local newspaper. What can you do? Just sign our letter!🦇📰actionnetwork.org/petitions/… #solidarity
We’re petitioning @hearst to engage with @statesman journalists on essential protections like fair pair, AI limits, equal 401K. Signing the letter takes just a minute and helps your local journalists. #solidarity
Our hearts go out to our affected colleagues in Dallas. The Austin NewsGuild stands with the Dallas News Guild as journalists seek to enforce their contract. #solidarity
Want to help local journalism stay local? Support our strike fund as we push for a contract with @Hearst @statesman gofund.me/6589062ba
Sadly this is true! There is no reason we don’t have a contract other than Hearst doesn’t want a union that gives Austin journalists protections to continue covering the city they love. jimhightower.substack.com/p/…
We are out to lunch. What is stopping @hearst from giving us the same 401(k) match? Nothing. @statesman

Austin tops U-Haul’s 2025 mid-year report as a top destination, with Californians leading the charge. See who's moving in — and where Texans are heading next. statesman.com/news/local/art…
Help @statesman get to a contract with @Hearst. Support our new strike fund. gofundme.com/f/support-the-a…

Folks, the Houston Landing closes this week, putting dozens of journalists and staff out of work. Given the significant remaining need, we've increased our fundraising goal to $15,000.
We're 74% of the way there, but we need your help. Please share widely:
