Breaking News: Academic workers across the University of California system walked off the job on Monday as part of a strike over pay and benefits. nyti.ms/3g5d5cy

I stand in strong solidarity with the 48,000 academic workers at the University of California who are on strike for higher wages, better child care benefits, and expanded paid leave.

Fair pay is, at its core, a diversity and equity issue and that's what we are fighting for. @uaw2865 San Francisco Chronicle University of California #FairUCNow

We are now entering week two of unfair labor practice strikes by UAW-represented academic workers at the University of California. Their talent is what enables UC’s world-class research. I’m leading colleagues to call on UC to reach a resolution and bargain in good faith.

Thousands of academics strike in California: how is research affected? go.nature.com/3AJd6d9

I now called and wrote to my CA state senator Nancy Skinner . Spread the word. Faculty, write to your representatives and call. Plus side: The people on the other side are friendly and great. I cannott stare down my upcoming budget projections feeling that I did not try.
