We're on strike for the health of ourselves, our families, our union siblings and the Pittsburgh community we strive to serve.  Can you chip in to help keep all our family fed and fighting?

We know that we’re fighting for a future where journalists in Pittsburgh can afford to live in and report on our region. We know that we can’t rely on the bosses to treat us fairly, and that we need to fight for what we deserve.

While we thoroughly anticipate victory and the restoration of the contract terms that were stolen from us, we need your support more than ever to hold the picket line against these very bad bosses.

In this exact same moment, Post-Gazette management continues its lawless union-busting campaign. It fights striking union journalists who are simply demanding a restoration of the basic workplace rights that allow us to serve our communities and beyond.

This fight isn't just about us. It's becoming increasingly obvious that the potential for a democratic society depends on access to reliable, independently reported information that we can use to make decisions about our lives and our communities.

Tomorrow, our strike against @PittsburghPG it's third full year. Three years of fighting the most lawless union-busting campaign can be tiring, but we're never going to quit fighting. Last night, we were uplifted to see a new sign adorning the Pittsburgh skyline...

"The potential for a democratic society depends on us all having access to reliable, independently reported information in order to make decisions about our lives, and PG leadership is actively working to undermine that possibility."

In addition to detailing the struggles strikers have faced, including cops physically breaking picket lines and executive editor Stan Wischnowski attempting to criminally prosecute one of his own reporters, Tuesday night’s proclamation stressed the importance of local journalism.

Just a week and half short of the third anniversary of our unfair labor practice strike against @PittsburghPG, Allegheny County Council member at-large Bethany Hallam brought forward a proclamation acknowledging the fight of the union journalists holding down the picket line.

Dear BCI board members, it doesn’t matter where you are, Guild members are holding you to account while you try to run your illegal union-busting campaign. @PacNWGuild members agree. ✊

We have gone a step further with Noa: memories are machine encoded and stored privately on encrypted servers with **no rich media retained** So you can feel secure using Noa for recall years in the future.❤️ In true Brilliant Labs fashion, we built this because we believed it

@CWAUnion @CWADistrict213 @newsguild @PittsburghPG In our 34th month on strike, we know we are stronger than the Blocks. We have stronger family in our union than any of the BCI board members will find among themselves. We say that when we fight, we win. We’re fighting, and we are going to win.

@CWAUnion @CWADistrict213 @newsguild We raised tens of thousands of dollars for our strike fund at the @CWAUnion Convention this week. AND as a union we voted to raise strike pay! At the exact moments when the @pittsburghPG hopes we’ll give up, our union siblings sent a very clear message: We Don’t Play At CWA!

The PG has hired cops, scabs, “security,” and lawyers all in search of weaknesses while trying to wait us out. But @CWAUnion president Claude Cummings Jr., @CWADistrict213 VP Mike Davis, @newsguild president Jon Schleuss and everyone who rallied y'day showed why it can’t be done.
