All of the union’s eight-person bargaining team has been laid off, along with 40 of its 67 official members lost their jobs.

The union [said](https://twitter.com/stephencouncil/status/1714459116645880038?ref=hypebot.com) that 50% of union members on the editorial team, 12 of 13 union-eligible support staff, and two-thirds of union-eligible engineers were all laid off.

The union had been scheduled to return to the bargaining table today.
