ALT Textured pink background with a light pink rounded square in the center. Inside, green text is at the top in an arch that reads: ASAN Staff is Uniting to Form the Autistic Self Advocacy Union! There is a picture of 11 faces with a zoom background that has the ASAU logo. Text reads: We organized as part of the Pacific Media Workers Guild, a local chapter of The NewsGuild-Communication Workers of America (TNG-CWA Local 39521). Today, we have officially asked management to voluntarily recognize our union. We hope they choose to do so soon.
ALT A statement from The Washington Post Guild: We vehemently condemn The Washington Post’s firing of dozens of valued employees today, just days into the new year and at a time when the company is actively growing. It is especially disturbing that Post CEO, Will Lewis, has not directly addressed his employees in a whopping 230 days — during which tumult and turnover have driven many of our highest-profile colleagues to other companies and new policies have been implemented with little explanation. The diligent, talented workers that make The Post every day should not bear the consequences of poor decisions made by Post executives. They deserve better. The Post deserves better. We demand leaders do the right thing: address workers during this time of upheaval and stop punishing hardworking Post employees for the decisions made far above their heads.
