Jon Schleuss is an American data journalist and trade union leader who currently serves as the president of the NewsGuild-CWA[1]. He was first elected on December 10, 2019 in a rerun election by a vote of 1,979 to 1,514[2][1][3]. The original election, which Schleuss lost by 271 votes, was set aside by union officials in August 2019 after more than 1,000 members failed to receive ballots[4][5].

Prior to his election, Schleuss worked as a data and graphics journalist in the Los Angeles Times Data and Graphics Department[6]. During his time in Los Angeles, Schleuss participated in the campaign to bring union representation to The Times[2][7].

Before joining The Times in 2013, Schleuss was the online editor of the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and worked as a host for an NPR member station based in Fayetteville, Arkansas[3][2][6].
