From the U.S. to Korea, Alphabet workers are experiencing increasing job insecurity - but we're organizing and fighting back together. The Alphabet Workers Union stands in solidarity with our union siblings in the Google Korea Union! Google must come to the table NOW!
Support video game journalism!
Union workers send a message to game industry execs: 'Let go of the power now, or be forced to let go of it later.'

Heartless actions from @nytimes.com management are stopping our coworker from caring for his 96-year-old father, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease.
Every day there are new reports of ICE detaining and targeting our communities. Video game devs and the workers who keep our workplaces running are not safe from this.
That’s why we’ve launched WE DON'T PLAY WITH ICE, a campaign demanding companies commit to becoming 4th Amendment Workplaces.

The enclosure of Yerba Buena Gardens didn’t stop us from leading a march to discuss our Game Workers’ Bill of Rights earlier this week — our way to fight for standardization across video game studios and employers that empower workers instead of breaking them down.
when we fight we win
The State of The Times: Heartless. Red banner with NYT Tech Guild logo
Today, NYT celebrates their successes from the past year, but we are witnessing a major failure of leadership: @nytimes.com mgmt is denying one of our members, Rich Quan, permission to continue working remote, even as a certified caregiver for his 96-year-old father, who suffers from Alzheimer's.

Today's rally at The Post building was a powerful show of solidarity from fellow unions, community members, longtime Post readers, past and current Post journalists, international press, city council members, and everyone else who knows that we must #SaveThePost
Thank you for your solidarity. ✊
journalists are workers who deserve to be paid fairly for our labor and I think that far too few consumers of media recognize or even care about this fact
Save the post. Hundreds of workers at the Washington Post stand to lose their jobs in layoffs, which could render The Post unrecognizable amid some of the most severe staff cuts the newspaper has ever seen. If you value The Post and care about its future, we ask that you join us in person in our call to #SaveThePost. Feb 5, 2026 @ 1301 K St. NW 12:00-1:00pm
Jeff Bezos, one of the richest people on Earth, just eliminated hundreds of union jobs at the Washington Post.
Solidarity with @postguild.bsky.social. Join them tomorrow, February 5 at 12:00 p.m. for a rally to #SaveThePost.
The Washington-Baltimore News Guild strongly condemns the layoffs announced today at The Washington Post. These cuts represent yet another blow to a newsroom that has already been pushed to its limits and a disservice to the readers who rely on The Post for rigorous, independent journalism.

Over 30,000 Amazon workers have been laid off since October. Executives get to call their decisions "red tape" and workers pay the price.
If you're at Amazon and furious by this, you're not alone. Organizing is how we can secure real protections before the next round hits. code-cwa.org/organize
