The union of the The Washington Post.
After decimating the organization, we are bargaining per our contract with management. We have featured testimonials from Post employees. Here’s some of them had to say. Here’s what these layoffs have done to us. #SaveThePost 🧵

Monday night after working hours, our members who are being targeted for layoffs by The Washington Post were locked out of their work devices, platforms and The Post building.

Will Lewis’s exit is long overdue. His legacy will be the attempted destruction of a great American journalism institution. But it's not too late to save The Post. Jeff Bezos must immediately rescind these layoffs or sell the paper to someone willing to invest in its future.

So many have given to The Post Guild’s fundraising effort, and we are floored. But we also ask you to consider supporting the fundraiser for our international staff and staff in our bureaus who aren’t Guild eligible. They are absolutely vital to coverage. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

I have so many thoughts about what was unleashed on @washingtonpost.com and many of my @postguild.bsky.social siblings yesterday.

The most productive thought is to support them.

Please give generously with me to help these dedicated journalists who are paying the price for others’ cowardice.

I’ve seen the GoFundMe for @postguild.bsky.social employees impacted by layoffs circulating, but a recently laid off pal mentioned that the GoFundMe for international correspondents and employees could use some love: www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Help us #SaveThePost
For nearly a century, the @washingtonpost’s foreign correspondents have been on the ground for the world’s most pressing stories. Now, our desk is facing potential steep cuts. Washington needs us. The world needs us. If you read us and need us, please watch this video and share.

“If Jeff Bezos no longer supports that mission, then The Post and its readers deserve a steward who does.”

That’s something the entire NewsGuild-CWA stands behind.

Local journalism is a public good. Local reporters tell the stories of our neighborhoods, hold the powerful accountable, and keep us informed.

After scores of layoffs and coverage cuts at @washingtonpost.com, I'm dismayed to see DC at risk of losing even more local reporters. #SaveThePost
