Show your solidarity by attending the “Oregon Supports KGW Workers!” Rally on Thursday, February 19th!

Members of Oregon’s labor community and community allies will gather outside the KGW-TV studios at 1501 SW Jefferson Street in Portland for a solidarity rally aimed at supporting newsroom staff during a pivotal moment.

The demonstration is timed to coincide with a National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) election taking place that day. KGW broadcast and digital producers, and content coordinators are voting on whether to be represented by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 48.

The goal is to demonstrate to KGW management and parent company Tegna, that these essential local journalists have the full backing of the broader Portland labor movement as they seek a legally protected voice on the job.

There are two rally shifts: 7am to 9am, and 12pm to 2pm. If you are planning to attend, please RSVP at the link below so we can gauge the attendance for each shift.
