Stand with Condé Nast Union 🚨
They're asking people to sign their petition telling management to reinstate the Fired Four, reverse the suspensions, and end the union busting.
"On Nov. 5, 2025 in an egregious attempt at union-busting, Condé Nast management illegally terminated four union members – Alma Avalle, Jake Lahut, Jasper Lo and Ben Dewey – for participating in federally protected union activity.
Management singled out the four union leaders from a group of nearly 20 Guild members who approached the head of human resources, Stan Duncan, to seek answers about the decision to dismantle Teen Vogue – a brand praised for its insightful political and cultural journalism often critical of the Trump administration – and related layoffs. Prior to this, union members made repeated attempts to meet with Duncan and other executives to talk through concerns about multiple rounds of layoffs and a seeming shift away from critical politics and identity coverage at several prominent Condé brands. Executives ignored those requests.
On Nov. 7, management additionally suspended without pay five more employees who were present in the hallway while their colleagues asked Duncan questions about their workplace."
