And that’s a union folks! Today, SRWG members voted in an NLRB election to formalize our union! Thank YOU to every single person who has shown support whether it be through kind words, signing our petition or continuing to uplift our work. We look forward to what’s next and we’ll keep you updated!

Keep donating to @streetroots.bsky.social even though the board is refusing to voluntarily recognize a unit with 100% of employees voting in favor of a union.

The workers still need community support to keep things going.

Would you consider advocating for the workers unionizing at the nonprofit you sat on the board of for years? The CWA endorsement on your website sends a message of solidarity, and we’d love to hear from you!

I'm going to be incredibly vocal about this problem when I'm on the City Council. Read up on it so you can help me advocate for these essential workers!!!

Street Roots' board of directors notified the NLRB that it will not voluntarily recognize the Street Roots Workers Guild on Dec. 9, and violated federal labor law by failing to post notice of our election by the end of the day yesterday. 1/
Text reads: "Street Roots' board of directors notified the NLRB that it will not voluntarily recognize the Street Roots Workers Guild on Dec. 9, and violated federal labor law by failing to post notice of our election by the end of the day yesterday." Text reads: "The Guild — which represents the 15 union-eligible workers who unanimously authorized the union — is disappointed by this news and particularly disappointed by the reason the board gave for refusing to voluntarily recognize: they want to exclude 2 of our colleagues. As an organization that touts its efforts of social justice and equity, we see this as a failure of the board to carry out its mission." Text reads: "The NLRB defines "supervisors" as having the power to hire, fire, discipline, promote, or assign tasks to workers. These 2 employees do not hold those powers. The Street Roots Workers Guild membership remains steadfast in its calls for the board to recogniez the Guild and all its members immediately.

You should probably really rethink what you're doing if you're on the board of Street Roots and refuse to recognize the workers union.

if i were on the board for an organization claiming values like "dignity" and "equity" and which is dependent on the goodwill of the community, i would simply voluntarily recognize our employees' union without having to be asked twice
