🧵ICYMI: last week, we sent an open letter to the @MFJLegal Board and every non-union MFJ employee. It explains why our Union has still been on strike for over 60 days, highlights press coverage, and details the overwhelming support we've received from public officials. /1

📣On Friday our union Comms Team sent @MFJLegal - including the board and all managers, from middle management to executives - an open letter. We explained our demands & strike highlights. We'll keep fighting until we win the fair contract our clients & our union deserve.
