Thanks for asking! We do encourage supporters to return to reading/watching our stories (they are produced by guild members, after all!) But we encourage you to keep demonstrating your support for us to ProPublica's management.

🚨 ON STRIKE 🚨
Unionized staff at ProPublica @propublicaguild.org walked off the job today.
Stand with workers: DO NOT cross the picket line.
That means no visiting ProPublica's website, social media or engaging with its content today.
New: 150 unionized ProPublica workers are on strike TODAY over AI, layoff protections, wages, and more.
They're asking readers to not visit ProPublica or engage with content on other platforms. It's the first work stoppage of its kind at the newsroom.

A ProPublica worker high fives a giant inflatable rat nicknamed Scabby. Resting on the belly of Scabby is a sign that says: ProPublica workers on strike for a fair contract.
Today, you helped us show @propublica.org management that, without us, there is no ProPublica. And we’re not stopping this fight until we get the contract we deserve.

“We're fighting for fair pay because people deserve to be able to afford to stay in the jobs that they love. We're fighting for protections around AI because this work is done by humans.
We love this place. We believe in this work, and we are not backing down.”
— Katie Campbell, video journalist
“We're not asking for the moon here, despite what management keeps trying to tell us.
We need a fair and transparent disciplinary system that we can trust so that we can keep speaking truth to power, whether in the Oval Office or inside our newsroom.”
— Jeff Ernsthausen, senior data reporter

We love our jobs and are proud of our work. But we need a fair contract — just cause, fair wages and basic AI guardrails — to do this work well.
So we’re striking today. Don’t cross the picket line.

I take no pleasure in saying that I and my @propublicaguild.org colleagues are on strike.
It shouldn't have come to this and i can only hope that seeing the overwhelming majority of staff walk out today opens management's eyes and convinces them we're serious about our demands.
Our unit members are ON STRIKE and not participating in this event. DON’T CROSS THE PICKET LINE!
Promo for ProPublica news app event crossed out
If you registered to come to the event today on how to use the ProPublica Trump disclosures News app, the @propublicaguild.org is asking y’all NOT TO ATTEND in support of our strike today. We hate to do this, but management isn’t offering us a fair deal.
Really sad it’s come to this.
On my way to join my colleagues at the picket line. We deserve a fair contract!
