During an organizing campaign, with constant pressure from the company–it is understandable to feel that you are out there on your own. Management has been actively opposing union activity here all along-it is important to realize that we have many allies.
Members of the local labor community will rally tomorrow in support of the right to organize. We’ll meet up at 5 pm in front of the paper.
The communities of Bloomington and Normal depend on the employees of the Pantagraph for well-researched, quality journalism. Certainly the employees at the paper are capable of making an independent decision about joining a union.

Management obviously thinks we are stupid. Just wanted to let you know that they have told Advertising employees about the organizing tonight, and have told us that they want us to avoid the harassment. SO they gave us the option to leave early or to stay late. They are also taking the sales staff to Gill St. at 4:15 to avoid the union organizers, (but said it was because of the recent good work as a reward.) My suggestion is to show up early and surprise the hell out of them. Good luck!
