#upte — Public Fediverse posts

And on Friday morning we got the not-unexpected news: 98% of our members voted to ratify this contract!

Democratic unions, run by and for the members, are unstoppable. We will analyze our just-concluded action, learn from our mistakes, but mostly we will celebrate our win!!

And after a short break to rest & recharge, we'll get back to organizing our co-workers.

Please, please, UC, give us a reason to hit this button AGAIN!
The University of California asked our bargaining team to continue mediation late yesterday. If we don't get a tentative agreement today or tomorrow, I all but guarantee we will go on strike. And if we (UPTE, University Professional & Technical Employees) call a strike, other unions w/o contracts (AFSCME, CNA) will likely join us. 85,000 workers, largest strike at UC? YES, PLEASE! #Labor #HigherEd #California #UPTE #AFSCME #CNA
