We demand inclusion

The newsrooms of El Nuevo Herald, Miami Herald and Miami.com stand behind our colleagues who are wrongly being denied a place in our union.

We demand that McClatchy immediately inform the National Labor Relations Board that Douglas Rojas-Sosa, Leonard Pitts, Angel Doval, Flor Paz and Carl Hiaasen should be allowed to join One Herald Guild. Douglas, Leonard and Carl are not now nor have they ever been members of the Editorial Board. Flor is not a supervisor. Angel does not have access to confidential materials.

Their votes should be counted and they should be included in the union. Any attempt to exclude them is meant to weaken the power of our union.
