Dear FSU Members,

We are bargaining today from 12-2pm.   Although we have reached the 30-person “observer” limit, you can still join us in the caucus starting at 11:30 (contact the FSU office for Zoom meeting info) or follow our Communications Director on twitter (@melnickjeffrey1) – he will be livetweeting with the hashtags #umbfsu and #fsuexpanded.

Dear FSU Member,

As you know, the FSU recently won an agreement to allow up to 30 FSU members to attend bargaining sessions.  This will be our first session and it is important that we have a full contingent of 30 members.

Dear FSU Members,

At yesterday’s Special Session of the General Assembly, the membership unanimously approved (43-0) the attached agreement with Administration allowing up to 30 FSU members to attend each bargaining session (in addition to the core bargaining team).  This represents a significant step towards expanded bargaining – and a more engaged, transparent, and powerful union.
