After more than 19 months of bargaining, the @APNewsGuild has reached an agreement with @AP on a three-year deal.
Happy Festivus! It’s been a Feat of Strength to endure this long wait for a #fairAPcontract
Happy Festivus! Gather round and hear how AP has disappointed us with an awful wage offer. #fairAPcontract
We were insulted by @AP's first offer — a 2% raise over 3 years. We have a new offer, and we're no less frustrated: it includes at most a 2.5% raise and a $2,000 check. We can't be bought with a bonus. We demand a fair wage. More than 200 of us told our managers this today.

#NewProfilePic Will return to the Vandals logo once @AP moves off its insulting salary offer and gives its hard-working, dedicated, loyal and deeply experienced employees the fair contract we deserve. @APNewsGuild
More than 200 fed-up @AP employees who work hard to make the AP the sterling news information service it is sent emails to Scrooge-like top managers to tell them RTFW. Inflation has been 19% since our last contract, offering us 2% raises in return is bad math. @JuliePace
19%! That's how much we've seen the buying power of our pay cut since January 2020. Yet @AP management thinks its “landmark” offer of a $2,000 bonus mitigates the effects of inflation. Today, Guild members sent managers this letter calling for a #FairContract.

I love pursuing AP's journalism mission. I've slept on concrete, driven thousands of miles, sacrificed time with family, risked personal safety and endured online abuse. That's why I'm standing with @APNewsGuild for a #fairAPcontract that recognizes our hard work and inflation
Today, we're reminding @AP's top managers that staff are eager to focus on the important news of 2024 with a contract that gives us fair pay. But their current proposal doesn’t – not even close. Here's what the Guild members have to say to AP leadership 👇
Some jingles sound a little different this holiday season. In the past, a guild member might have sung that all they want for Christmas is "my two front teeth," or, more simply, "you." This year, all WE want is a #fairAPcontract.
1/ Two weeks ago, more than 750 Washington Post employees walked off the job for 24 hours to demand @washingtonpost negotiate in good faith for a contract that keeps pace with inflation and our competition. Instead, they returned with peanuts. Read our update here:
Perhaps @AP needs a visit from three ghosts. Sure, the company might not be raking in shillings like Ebenezer Scrooge. But we surpassed expectations. AP journalists need wages that match the times and the company needs wages that retain its talent. A 2% salary bump isn't it!
AP workers in recent contracts received pay increases that didn't keep up with the cost of living -- even as they took hits on retirement and health care. Let's not do the bah humbug thing again this holiday season, @AP! #fairAPcontract

Yesterday we escalated our push for a #fairAPcontract that keeps us strong. Hundreds of members took a short break to remind the company of our value. We know what we’re worth — and it’s more than a 2% raise.
I love seeing this strong showing from the NYC bureau!

Got Journalist of the Year from the Counter Narrative Project. :)
@elliotspagat @APNewsGuild Congratulations, Elliot!
It’s been a year, and I’m still trying to figure things out. But I’m glad that my family has accepted who I am. One day soon, I’ll tell mom? apnews.com/article/6b3ccf…
Bella is my closest coworker these days now that AP has permanently closed down our Omaha office to save money.
Bella and I donned our union red again today to support the @APNewsGuild fight for a #fairAPcontract with @AP
Hoping @AP will reconsider its paltry raise offer but after all you can't spell #cheAP without @AP so who knows what the company will come back with.
Happy Wage Wednesday! We’re still fighting for a #fairAPcontract.
Today is our first day at the bargaining table fighting for a new and improved contract—one that recognizes the hard work, dedication, and talent of @ForeignPolicy’s editorial team. FP works because the guild works.
I am paying 32% more in rent than I was in 2019 while my pay has been essentially stagnant. And now they are offering this insult of a raise? No thank you.
The median asking rent for the top 50 largest U.S. metropolitan areas has swelled nearly 25% over the past four years. But @AP's only offering us 2% wage increases. We report on these rent increases, yet struggle to pay our own. #DoBetterAP #WageWednesday
We are saying 'no' to paltry raises. @APNewsGuild
Spoiler alert: Nope.
You can't spell #cheAP without @AP! Our rank-and-file are demanding fair pay for all we do. Will Executive Editor @JuliePace and CEO Daisy Veerasingham publicly release their compensation packages and take pay cuts? #AskAP
Writer’s strike, UAW strike, UPS labor dispute. Is 2023/24 the year of labor taking a bite back in the right direction?
