I'm back from vacation and excited to get back to bargaining. While I was out, through the actions of our unit, we were finally able to get management to engage in real dialogue at the table. To talk with us, rather than at us. This is incredibly encouraging and I look forward to continuing with that today as we discuss management's counters to our latest proposal.

I'm currently on vacation, trying to take some time to rest, recharge, and enjoy time with friends. I appreciate the ability to take this time away as I need it. However, it's a little hard to do that when the rights of me and my colleagues are under assault.
I attended bargaining yesterday as a show of solidarity and it is was a rough start, but through the actions of so many of our courageous members, we got management to sit down, answer questions, and have an actual conversation. This is what should have been happening this entire time and it's encouraging to see this shift.
I sincerely hope we're able to keep these conversations going so that we can reach a fair and equitable contract that positions #CodeForAmerica as leaders.

Management at #CodeForAmerica thinks their workers are bullies for calling them out on their constant union busting and failure to listen to workers. #UnionBusting and stripping workers of their rights is apparently not bullying in the eyes of management
If managment can't lead this organization with integrity and our values and mission at the forefront, I suggest they make room for people who can.

Have you ever wondered what union busting looks like in the non-profit, mission-driven space? Turns out, it's not much different than in for-profit organizations! While organizing, we encounter the same forms of greed and power hoarding that we see at companies like Amazon and Starbucks.
When mission-driven organizations unionize it becomes immediatly clear that the values espoused by the leaders of these organizations apply to only those they intend to serve, not those doing the actual work. Help us hold management at Code for America accountable to their values by sharing this post and contacting them using the link at the bottom.
Together we can create a fair and equitable work environment for all. ✊

Today is day 10(!!) of the #NLRB hearings. We've repeatedly heard testimony that important people can't be in the #union, and people in the union can't be trusted. Management has admitted to surveiling unit members on social media and even tried to weaponize the board to silence us, claiming that repeating back testimony from these public hearings is "disparaging!"
You know what's disparaging? Constantly hearing that you aren't important and can't be trusted just because you want to protect your rights. Watching management strip members of their rights before terminating them without representation. Seeing management engage in the same #UnionBusting tactics we see at Amazon, New York Times, and Starbucks. Having management then deny and deflect, ignoring those impacted by their actions. That's disparaging.
If you have time today, I'd really appreciate your support. Come watch as we continue to fight for the #CodeForAmerica that we believe in! https://www.zoomgov.com/j/1602016186?pwd=RTQrYVh4Mll5NE5Tbjl5WTV5M0FKZz09

After three long days, we are disappointed to say the Unit Clarification Hearing will be resuming on Tuesday, June 13th, due to the breaking down of mediation. We are confident we can obtain much of the relief we seek through this process, and ask you to join us during this process to stand with workers who deserve union representation. Join us at http://bit.ly/cfawu-hearing next Tuesday, June 13th at 9 AM PT // 12 PM ET. #1u #cfawu

On Aug 10, 2021, workers at Code for America got together and formed the beginning of what today is #CfAWU (Code for America Workers United is a mouthful 😉). No less than a month less, we ran into a delay in the process of recognition (reported in https://fedscoop.com/code-for-america-management-seeks-extra-time-in-union-recognition-talks/).
