Why has @UCprezdrake failed to issue any directives or guidance about implementing our new contracts? Academic workers and CA legislators demand to know why campus leaders are threatening cutbacks and the President denies any knowledge of what’s going on.

'By threatening layoffs, the UC is peddling the false narrative that it’s only possible to provide quality education at the cost of paying workers poverty wages.' –Rafael Jaime. Read the full article: drive.google.com/file/d/11W44dg…

“It’s like they have this like public proposition, and then behind the scenes, they’re doing everything they can to damage graduate workers,” Elias Bunting, a graduate student researcher at UC Davis, said.' davisenterprise.com/news/local/ucd…

Today, the Joint Council voted for Student Researchers to adjoin local UAW 2865. This decision is the result of decades of organizing by Academic Student Employees and Student Researchers to overcome UC’s attempts to divide us.

LISTEN: The largest academic strike in U.S. history ended last month with a landmark agreement between University of California and graduate student teaching assistants and graduate student researchers. What might it mean for students and colleges outside of the UC?

It’s been a long road, up against an employer that tried for decades to keep us from having a union. Today, Student Researchers have a first contract — and thousands of coworkers ready to enforce our new rights and keep fighting for each other. #FairUCnow

Our union has more members than ever. People are more engaged than ever. We’ve all learned so much and made so many connections. This contract is incredible, and the next one will be better than we ever could have imagined.

What a fantastic win. This strike has been one of the most exciting and rewarding experiences of my life. Our contracts we won will be life changing for myself and many others. Extremely grateful for the hard work everyone has put in and for the friends I made on the picket line.

Fighting for a union in grad school, all I wanted so desperately was a grievance procedure. To see grad workers at UC win some of the strongest workplace protections in addition to the money and benefits in this strike… I am so damn proud to fight w/@uaw2865 UAW Local 5810 Student Researchers United-UAW

Congratulations to the workers at UCLA and across the UC system on ratifying their contracts!

Organizing and striking get results! Let’s keep building the movement across LA.
