IAPE Members Deserve A Fair Contract Now!

We need your help telling Dow Jones leadership that, after 240 days without a new contract, enough is enough.

With this campaign, we need your signature on a letter that we feel makes crystal clear that IAPE is energized and empowered and doesn't plan to back down from our demands for a fair wage, reasonable healthcare costs and other protections. The aim with this campaign is to flood Dow Jones executives' inboxes with these messages, so nobody at the top ranks can claim to be unaware of the way employees here are treated.

This letter is written from the perspective of IAPE members. You are welcome to personalize the message as much or as little as you want, and we welcome non-member friends/readers/supporters to send variations on this template as well. Please take a minute to share your thoughts with the company.

We appreciate your support in helping us get the contract we deserve!

Bargaining Update: Moving the Goalposts?
This morning, the IAPE bargaining committee presented a new proposal to Dow Jones, much to the dismay of management. IAPE made one, small change to its last proposal: moving from 10% to 9.5% in the offer for a wage increase effective July 1, 2023.

Yes, a retroactive pay raise, unlike the 3.5% offer Dow Jones presented two weeks ago.

Dow Jones negotiators complained that the union “keeps moving the goalposts” in negotiations. In our view, the company has consistently fallen short with its own proposals.

Bargaining is scheduled to resume on Thursday, Feb. 15.
