🚨 WE HAVE A DEAL! After three years, in a major step forward for our members, we have ratified our first contract with @propublica.org’s management. We deeply appreciate everyone who supported us along the way. Here are some of our big wins👇

Journalist in Idaho for ProPublica | audrey.dutton@propublica.org | DM for Signal.
The Idaho AG's office sent a fiery letter to the US DOJ on Friday, in response to the Trump administration's recent message to state election officials. "Your insinuations of criminal violations of the federal election laws are not well taken," wrote a deputy AG who represents Idaho's SOS.
I am speechless. This is the most unlikely and remarkable impact I can imagine anyone having in this sphere. @deldeib.bsky.social is incredible. www.propublica.org/article/vita...
A Popular Doctor Had Long Warned That Vitamin K Shots Are Risky for Newborns. Now He’s Changed His Tune.
After ProPublica contacted Dr. Joseph Mercola for an article on babies dying after parents turned down vitamin K shots, he publicly reversed his long-held stance that the shots weren't needed. “The da...

Don’t cross the picket line today, Tuesday, May 26! Join us by refusing to click any articles or interacting in any way with our five McClatchy newspapers.
One of the toughest conversations we are having daily. Something so safe and effective is being questioned, and children are dying.
Folks in Idaho health care and public health, please share Duaa's story with as many people as you can.

This was a hard story to report. Newborns who don’t get a vitamin K shot are 81 times more likely to develop a condition where they bleed uncontrollably. But more and more families are declining the shot. And babies are dying. www.propublica.org/article/more...

Babies Are Bleeding to Death as Parents Reject a Vitamin Shot Given at Birth
A lifesaving injection given at birth to prevent severe bleeding has become collateral damage of the anti-vaccine movement.

I take no pleasure in saying that I and my @propublicaguild.org colleagues are on strike. It shouldn't have come to this and i can only hope that seeing the overwhelming majority of staff walk out today opens management's eyes and convinces them we're serious about our demands.

“We're not asking for the moon here, despite what management keeps trying to tell us. We need a fair and transparent disciplinary system that we can trust so that we can keep speaking truth to power, whether in the Oval Office or inside our newsroom.” — Jeff Ernsthausen, senior data reporter
“We're fighting for fair pay because people deserve to be able to afford to stay in the jobs that they love. We're fighting for protections around AI because this work is done by humans. We love this place. We believe in this work, and we are not backing down.” — Katie Campbell, video journalist
Especially considering that ProPublica is a non-profit that was founded to create a professional home for investigative journalists.
I genuinely do not understand management's refusal to agree to basic protections, like that they won't replace us with AI. It's baffling. Makes no sense. We're on strike to show management how serious we are about this, and how eager we are to get a contract done!
There’s no way to replace the kind of reporting ProPublica does with AI. That’s not how investigative journalism happens-which they should know better than anyone.
Shame on @propublica.org management. And I say that as a subscriber! Your staff does great work and investigative journalism is something our society needs and machines cannot do. Get a deal done!

I genuinely believe that the excellent journalists who founded and still manage ProPublica will come around to the Union saving them from AI.

Today, I and the rest of the @propublicaguild.org are on strike. Why? Because we deserve a fair contract - one that locks in just cause, AI protections, and fair wages for all union members.

Summer child care in Boise: The annual parenting equivalent to getting Taylor Swift tickets
At today's hearing, @blumenthal.senate.gov brought up letters we obtained from kids held at the Dilley detention facility: propub.li/4lZbTF1 He also referenced our reporting on how Trump has detained the parents of more than 11,000 children: propub.li/4c2uqg9
NEW: Today, Congressional Democrats are spotlighting a particularly troubling part of Trump's immigration dragnet: the American kids — including some featured in ProPublica's reporting — who have been collateral damage in the deportation campaign.

NEW: For the first time, ProPublica has been able to quantify how many U.S. citizen children have been directly affected by Trump’s immigration crackdown: more than 11,000 kids had a parent detained — and that’s an undercount. 1/ 🧵 www.propublica.org/article/trum...
