Friends,

Because of you, this movement is no longer ignorable.

More than 52,500 Americans (plus lots of international support) have now signed the petition supporting the Truth in Job Advertising & Accountability Act. That number represents more than signatures—it represents shared frustration, lived experience, and a collective demand for honesty in hiring.

And your voices are being heard.

Over the past year, the issue of deceptive and “ghost” job postings has moved from online forums into national and international awareness. Journalists, researchers, and policymakers are now openly acknowledging what job seekers have known for a long time: this system is broken, and it causes real harm.

Your support has helped turn frustration into momentum.

Because of this growing public pressure:

• Lawmakers are engaging seriously with the issue
• Legal scholars are examining ghost jobs as deceptive practices
• Media outlets are treating the problem as systemic—not anecdotal

This is how change starts: not with a single bill, but with sustained public insistence that honesty should be the standard.

There is still work ahead. Momentum only matters if it’s carried forward.

Please continue to:

• Share your story when asked
• Talk about the issue openly
• Stay engaged as we move this effort through the legislative process

You are part of something real—and it’s moving.

With gratitude and resolve,
The TJAAA Working Group
