Justice Dept. Struggles to Respond to Trump’s Suit Against IRS

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/us/politics/trump-irs-lawsuit-doj.html

"On March 20, members of the ProPublica Guild, one of the largest nonprofit newsroom unions in the U.S., overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike. Out of the roughly 150 journalists, copyeditors, videographers and other newsroom workers in the Guild, 92% of members voted to walk off the job if ProPublica doesn’t agree to their contract terms in the coming weeks.

The vote comes two and a half years into negotiations over the Guild’s first collective bargaining agreement, which started soon after the union was recognized back in August 2023.

One of the sticking points at the bargaining table has been an article that would prohibit ProPublica from laying off employees due to AI adoption. Alongside the dispute over AI, the Guild is also pushing for “just cause” when firing unit members, a provision that would give senior employees more job security during layoffs, and cost-of-living wage increases.

The Guild’s vote marks the first time a major U.S. newsroom has authorized a strike, at least in part, over AI protections."

RE: https://union.place/@propublicaguild/116290657398834680

I never thought the day would come when I would ask anyone NOT to click on #ProPublica links. But that day may soon arrive. The #ProPublicaGuild (the union for ProPublica workers, including writers/reporters) has voted to authorize a strike. There is no strike yet, but the Guild has authorized its leadership to call a strike at their discretion if differences with management cannot be resolved. If they do strike, they will likely call for a DIGITAL BOYCOTT of ProPublica, to be implemented by refraining from clicking on ProPublica links — in effect, a picket line in cyberspace. The strike vote passed with 92% in favor of authorizing a strike. The principal issues at stake are: refusal to guarantee due process in disciplinary actions, refusal to respect seniority when doing layoffs, refusal to offer wage increases that will keep up with inflation, and — notably — refusal to offer guarantees against replacement of workers by AI.

I have donated to ProPublica in the past. But I now believe their reporters' work (frequently of Pulitzer Prize quality) can at present best be supported by standing in full #solidarity with @propublicaguild, which will include observing their digital #boycott if a #strike is called. Please also follow them for further news and announcements relevant to the negotiations, and to the potential strike and boycott.
