In Argentina, elections were held in the SiPreBa journalists' union, demonstrating the strength of collective organization amidst attacks on the press and labor rights. "In a context of attacks on trade unions and in particular on journalism, these elections are a show of the power of our collective tool," stated re-elected General Secretary Agustín Lecchi. Voter turnout reached 67%. "These results show that our union supports and strengthens collective organization to continue fighting for decent work in the press and labor rights," he added. The newly elected board will include workers from 25 media outlets, including Clarín, La Nación, Perfil, Infobae, Telefe, and others. "With the strength that this result gives us, we have the obligation to defend journalism and labor rights against attempts at a labor reform that seeks to further precariousize those of us who work," Lecchi emphasized. The "Unidad Pluricolor" list, which won the elections, is a renewed continuation of the current leadership.
