Nuts & Bolts: Raise update, International faculty, NTT promotions

12/4/2023

Dear Members, 

Close yet so far away……..

Thursday afternoon the Legislature’s conference committee came to an agreement on the supplemental budget, specifically on shelter funding.  The news reports seemed to indicate all was set and our raises are on the way.  That is incorrect.

Brief update on our raises

12/1/2023

Raise Update:  The Legislature's conference committee has come to an agreement (H4204) on the supplemental budget. This means both the House and Senate need to vote on H4204.  At the time of this email, both are scheduled to go into informal session at 11AM today.   We will send you an update once any action takes place. 

Sincerely,

Caroline Coscia                             Sana Haroon

Senior Lecturer II                          Professor

THURSDAY @ 12:15: Take Action to Fund our Raises

11/28/2023

Dear Members,

Join us this Thursday at 12:15PM!

Time is running out to fund our raises before the New Year. We’ve been told that if the Massachusetts Legislature can’t fund state worker raises by the first week of December, that it will likely be too late for us to see our raises and retro pay before the holidays.

That means we must turn up the heat ASAP. Join your union siblings outside the Chancellor’s Office this Thursday, November 30th for 8 minutes of action.
