Two years ago, the workers of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette walked off the job on strike. The Newspaper Guild of Pittsburgh has been in negotiations for a contract with Post Gazette management for SEVEN years—since 2017—and have battled bad faith bargaining, illegal and unilaterally imposed changes to working conditions, and loss of vacation time and insurance benefits. In October 2022, newsroom workers voted to go on strike, and strike they did. Now, two years later, the workers of the Post Gazette are still on strike, and—despite the NLRB upholding their Unfair Labor Practice charges against the company—still have a long way to go to total victory. Today, we've brought some of the striking workers onto the show to talk about the last two years of striking, the welcome updates from the NLRB, and what's next for the workers as their battle continues.Panelists include:Rick Nowlin, news assistant, editorial writer, and PG archivistBob Batz Jr., veteran editor, writer, photographer, and Interim Editor of the Pittsburgh Union Progress (PUP)Steve Mellon, veteran photographer and writer, and regular PUP contributorJohn Santa, copy editor, page designer, and sports writer for the PUPNatalie Duleba, page designer, copy editor, web editor, and award-winning PUP contributorAdditional links/info below:The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's half-year strikeStrikes at Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, University of Michigan, and moreAfter months of striking, media workers aren't backing downA start to the end of the strike?

Pregnant workers already face discrimination on the job, Before the pandemic struck, the United States was the only advanced nation without a national paid maternity or parental leave policy. Now, pregnant workers have to navigate workplaces that pose real infection risks — often without recourse. Delivering a child in the pandemic has become fraught and isolating. And for many new moms whose low-wage jobs are considered "essential," the emergency paid leave law Congress passed doesn’t even apply. So what can we learn from the pandemic about how to better protect pregnant workers? How can we ensure healthy outcomes for new mothers and children, and, in particular, for new African American mothers and children, whose rates of infant and maternal mortality are alarmingly high?
