Follow us on Instagram to stay up to date on all that is happening in our election and for ways to support Abrams workers. We hope Abrams can get back to the business of making books, not busting unions. /end

The union is all of us coming together, not a third party. The union buster who is reportedly going to hang out in our office for the next week kind of seems like a third party to us. And in the sake of transparency, we wish we knew what Abrams is spending on this.

The union buster was introduced to us this morning by CEO Mary McAveney who told us she didn't want a "third party" coming into Abrams to change things. She claimed to be "overly transparent" in her leadership of the company.

We're so disappointed Abrams leadership has decided to allocate thousands of dollars to trying to convince us to vote no in the election we fought for. It is particularly egregious considering starting pay for entry-level roles at Abrams is about $22/hr ($40,000/yr) in NYC.

Our union is organized by the workers, for the workers. Together we are the Abrams Union! /end 🧵

As employees, we want a seat at the decision-making table, and to be heard on issues of wages, healthcare, job security, and protections in the workplace. 5/

In forming a union, we stake our claim in shaping the future of Abrams: a more equitable, ethical, and transparent working environment. 4/

who together form a passionate and innovative community committed to quality, integrity, inclusivity, and justice. 3/

At the heart of this endeavor is the people—the hard workers in marketing, publicity, sales, design, editorial, managing editorial, legal, distribution, subrights, production, inventory, operations, finance, IT, and office services— 2/
