Thank you @LongBeachMayor for supporting Long Beach's workers in their fight for dignified wages and respect.
STRIKE ALERT! Workers at Hotel Maya prepare to strike if no deal is reached as the public gets ready for the @GPLongBeach unitehere11.org/grand-prix-str…
Join us in advocating for structural funding for the #LBJusticeFund! Check out our toolkit and spread the word! If you can make it, see you at 5pm at LBC council! bit.ly/LBJF2024
❌ Don’t cross the picket line! ❌ Across the country, @newsguild members like us are on strike today. We stand proudly in solidarity with our colleagues at @PGHGuild @AustinNewsGuild & @rocnewsguild who are fighting for a better future for local news and workers. ✊
🚨ACTION ALERT🚨 Our siblings @LBMGuild need our support #TOMORROW in #DTLB on Broadway & Pacific Ave. @ 3 PM ✊ The workers at the LBJI are being laid off & we're not going to take it! LB is a UnionTown too, let's show our solidarity ✊ #1U #SolidarityIsPower
here's a map of Measure RW votes in Long Beach. there couldn't be a clearer divide between wealthier communities with historically high voter turnout and working class communities with historically low voter turnout. yet, we won! and that's on base building 🌊 @LBJustEconomy
ICYMI: Amid a unionization campaign and the filing of unfair labor practice charges by @MediaGuildWest, @LongBeachPost CEO @MelissaEvansLBP and the Board of Directors hired high priced OC-based anti-union lawyer Daniel Adlong.

So much respect and appreciation to the Union folk and community members that showed up to support the @LBMGuild. A city is better when it has a newspaper and we’re fighting to make sure that stays the case.

Striking and laid off staff from the Long Beach Post and Long Beach Business Journal are accusing the local media outlet of union busting and mismanagement, picketing outside its downtown offices Monday morning. ✍️: @kristen_naeem 📸: @richardgrant88 sigtrib.com/long-beach-pos…
Our workers were laid off with NO SEVERANCE and told their health insurance will be gone in 7 days. Help them pay for housing, food, medicine and other necessities while they continue to fight these illegal and retaliatory layoffs. Donate today: gofund.me/f873f36e
Join us in solidarity tomorrow, Monday March 25 from 8AM - Noon outside the Long Beach Post and Business Journal office at 100 W. Broadway in Long Beach as we protest the illegal and retaliatory layoffs of 60% of our workers. Wear red and black! All are welcome.
Alexa, can you define “retaliation”?
Really @MelissaEvansLBP? Every measure? Because I don’t remember being asked if I would accept a pay cut, or part-time or furlough or reduced benefits, and I don’t think anyone else does, either. And I certainly don’t remember hearing anything from you about cutting your own pay.
I guess after 12 years at the @LongBeachPost this is how I find out I’ve been laid off.
What’s happening at the @LongBeachPost at the hands of @MelissaEvansLBP is incredibly gross and disheartening. I’m so sorry to my ex-colleagues who were laid off today. The LBP was full of talented reporters who care about their city and any newsroom would be lucky to have them.

After 8 years with the Long Beach Business Journal and Long Beach Post, I just was laid off along with most of my colleagues. Management just decimated local news coverage for one of the largest city’s in California. It’s disgraceful and Long Beach deserves better.

This is unacceptable. I spent nearly 7 years helping build trust in LBC, especially with communities of color, and was happy to see it continue w/ current staff. These layoffs are undoing over a decade of that work.

I’ve just been laid off from @LongBeachPost because I stood in solidarity with my colleagues. I was not originally to be laid off and was told initially that my job was safe. I wasn’t the only one. This is blatant retaliation. @LBMGuild
This morning @LongBeachPost and Business Journal CEO @MelissaEvansLBP began making calls to striking Long Beach Media Guild members informing them they’ve been laid off. We have been locked out of our company email accounts. Reach us at [email protected].
