1/ Today, we filed an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board over @ProPublica management’s unilateral implementation of an AI policy without first bargaining with our union. Of note, the policy provides no job protections to our members.

2/ You can support our fight for a fair contract, including AI protections, by donating to our strike fund to support workers who need to walk off the job.

@propublicaguild I can't believe I'm saying this about ProPublica, but if things go poorly for you in negotiations, you could quit en masse and form your own union worker co-op.

I feel like this should be the solution a lot more often, but i am an outsider to these things so what do i really know 🙃
@RnDanger @propublicaguild Few people are aware it's an option. But, there are other journalism co-ops out there: @Defector, @404mediaco, and, most recently, the re-launched Gourmet magazine.
