The Insider Union is on strike, and a chorus of woofs and meows have risen up in support of the effort.

Cats and dogs from across the country are raising a paw in solidarity with the hundreds of Insider journalists who have withheld their labor since Friday, June 2 while on an indefinite unfair labor practice strike. A handful of pooches also fetched signs and joined the picket line at One Liberty Plaza in New York’s Financial District, but between the blistering heat and the poor air quality that had Manhattan looking like a dystopian hellscape, many pro-Union pets have been unable to attend in-person the past few days. 

They’re all still holding the line at home like they’re playing a game of tug, and they’ll never heed the command to “drop it!” These pets are helping hold down a strong digital picket line until a fair deal is reached. Don’t let their pleading eyes fool you; these pups are man’s best friend, but no friend to The Man. 

Check out 37 photos of pets who are supporting the Insider Union’s fight for fair wages, affordable healthcare, and a sustainable environment to produce high-quality journalism:
