UMass Unions United - Join Our Unions at the Chancellor’s Campus Update

Management has dragged out bargaining for far too long. While we negotiate in good faith for fair wages, better conditions, and the respect we deserve, they continue to stall, sidestep, and delay. Enough is enough.

Dear Members,

As workers in public higher education, we have been facing a barrage of attacks; from our grants to our diversity, to our academic freedom, to our immigrant colleagues. These attacks all stem from one root: a singular offense against working people and the public goods that our democracy relies on.

Dear FSU Members,

On the Friday before Spring Break over 50 campus union members, along with students, showed up at the PSU bargaining session to make our voices heard.   It was a great show of union strength.  The campus unions have planned the same actions this week right before bargaining sessions for both the FSU and CSU.  We need your presence for no more than 30 minutes on Wednesday and Thursday.

Wednesday from 9:15-9:45am right outside Wheatley room W-5-41  (FSU bargaining starts at 9:45)
