GoKawiilWikimedia Foundation U.S. Staff Vote to Unionize with CWA Local 9415
U.S.-based employees of the Wikimedia Foundation, the nonprofit behind Wikipedia, voted decisively to unionize under Communications Workers of America Local 9415. The election, overseen by the National Labor Relations Board, followed a July push for recognition after a supermajority of workers signed union cards, a request management initially declined to honor voluntarily. The vote is part of the broader Wiki Workers United campaign spanning multiple countries where Wikimedia staff work.
