    We are proud to announce that our membership voted UNANIMOUSLY to ratify a three-year contract, our union’s first. More details to follow. We’re extremely grateful for all of the support you’ve shown us throughout the last 2.5 years of bargaining and escalations.
    Bird Union logo with a shrike in the corner. Text reads: CONTRACT UNANIMOUSLY RATIFIED! CWA 1180 Bird Union & National Audubon Society.

    Today, we are announcing that our union will no longer be named for John James Audubon. We will hold a vote to select our new name; in the meantime we will call ourselves The Bird Union.
    Red and white Bird Union logo, a circle with four bird silhouettes in the middle. Along the edge reads “BIRD UNION SOLIDARITY IS FOR THE BIRDS”

    Audubon’s workers are unionizing to build an organization that respects workers, treats everyone with dignity, and makes it easier to protect the birds we all love. Our union will make Audubon a better place to work for all current and future employees. #AudubonUnion

    After more than 2.5 years of bargaining and mounting a nationwide strike threat, we have come to a tentative agreement with Audubon management. The 3 year deal is a direct result of the dedication and hard work of our membership. We will proceed with a ratification vote.

    Dear bosses, Union busting is always really transparent and a huge waste of time, money, and goodwill. Voluntary recognition and mutual respect for your workers is the best way forward in both the short and long term. Signed, Everyone

    We named our union Audubon for All after our employer, the National Audubon Society. But Audubon was not for all. The organization is named for John James Audubon, a racist white man who enslaved at least nine Black people and supported “race science” and white supremacy.

    Starting today we disavow the name. We will neither elevate nor celebrate a person who would reject and oppress our union members today. We invite the @audubonsociety to join us.

    An update from the Bird Union: We have filed an NLRB complaint alleging that @audubonsociety has broken federal labor law. They have downgraded healthcare benefits, pushing costs on the lowest-paid staff & violating our right to status quo conditions during bargaining. 🧵
