"Unlike the many previous rulings in our favor against the PG, the 3rd Circuit has enforcement power." Boom! Fantastic news today from @pghguild.com! ✊🔥🥳
BREAKING: We won!

Today the 3rd Circuit Court ordered the @post-gazette.com to restore our contract it illegally tore up 5 years ago. That’s our health care, PTO, right to a 40-hr. work week, short-term disability and so much more we’ve struck for 3+ years.
