NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union

Association of Field Service Employees of NEA @AFSE_NEA. Behind every strong union is a strong union. Solidarity forever!

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

📢It's true. @NEAToday management walked away from the table last night, canceled the YRO conference, and sent all of AFSE home. Tell NEA you will not stand for union busting, ESPECIALLY from the largest teacher's union in the country! #FairContractNOW

@UnionStaffSEIU We're all in this together, fam! Thank you so much for your support. #SolidaritySeason

[Unionized Staffers at SEIU @UnionStaffSEIU]

Unbelievable.

After walking away from the bargaining table, #NEA management LOCKED OUT its own unionized staffers.

@AFSE_NEA members deserve better.
@NEAToday members deserve better.
The labor movement deserves better.

What's disgusting? Union busting! #WalktheWalkNEA

[Vicki Rodriguez @VickiRodrigue11]

The nation’s largest union should act like unionists, not union busters. Tell them. @AFSE_NEA https://t.co/1gYtOaTo9z

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

Thank you for your support! #solidarity

[Malden Edu. Assoc. @MaldenEduAssoc]

@AFSE_NEA The members of the Malden Education Association stand in solidarity with you in your continued struggle for a fair contract. We call on @NEAToday to get back to the table IMMEDIATELY and end this crisis.

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

@NEAToday, it's time to settle a fair contract. The world is watching. #AFSEStrong #Solidarity

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

Thank you for your support!

[Colleen (she/her) @MsOCforEd]

.@AFSE_NEA members empower NEA members & support affiliate staff every. single. day.

I know firsthand. I was both.

Now I couldn’t be more proud to stand with them as an @NEAStaffUnion & @NSO_now member.

You can stand with AFSE, too. Take action now. https://t.co/UxjJG3cA3x

@NEAToday live your union values. Last night, @AFSE_NEA unanimously authorized a ULP strike. Help us NOW in our fight for a #faircontract https://t.co/NWDxzkClk1 #AFSE #NEA #union #UnionsForall #SolidaritySeason

Please help @AFSE_NEA tell the bosses at NEA to negotiate in good faith with its workers. https://t.co/MweGsnWsna

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

How do you spell solidarity? NSO! Our NEA union siblings of the National Staff Organization imposed sanctions on the NEA today calling on NSO members to "boycott any events or programs of NEA until further notice." ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏾

[National Staff Organization @NSO_now]

November 10, 2023 Update on AFSE Negotiations with NEA: Effective immediately, the National Staff Organization imposes sanctions on NEA due to its failure to reach a tentative agreement with the Association of Field Staff Employees (AFSE) at its bargaining session yesterday.

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

All workers deserve a Fair Contract, even at NEA. #AFSE #NEA #union #SolidaritySeason #faircontractNOW #Striketober

[Unionized Staffers at SEIU @UnionStaffSEIU]

We’re at @NEAToday with union staff @AFSE_NEA standing in solidarity with our #1u family who have been working under an expired contract for 110 days. @BeckyPringle and @MaryKayHenry must practice what they preach and bargain a fair contract! #SolidaritySeason #UnionsForAll

[Unionized Staffers at SEIU @UnionStaffSEIU]

It’s unacceptable that @AFSE_NEA, @AFSCMEusu, @aflcioguild & union staff at @SEIU are ALL working under an expired contract for over 100 days. It’s time for @MaryKayHenry, @BeckyPringle & @LizShuler to love their values. Staff unions help unions run for members! #SolidaritySeason

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

While @BeckyPringle travels the country celebrating union values, today is the 100th day that she and @NEAToday have denied us a fair contract. #walkthewalkNEA #stopthehypocrisy @NEAExecDir @NEADeputyExec

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

How do @BeckyPringle and @NEAToday celebrate #LaborDay while denying their own employees a fair contract?!? #stopthehypocrisy @NEAExecDir @NEADeputyExec

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

...and after three months working without a contract, NEA's field staff deserve a fair contract NOW. #stopthehypocrisy #walkthewalkNEA @NEAExecDir @NEAToday @NEADeputyExec

[Becky Pringle @BeckyPringle]

Working families move the world—and all working people deserve the solidarity and representation of a union. Happy #LaborDay from America's largest labor union! #1u

[Brian Phillips @brian_phillips2]

Having a fair contract for @AFSE_NEA @NEAExecDir

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

...and value the education union staff who support educators every day, including NEA's field staff union, AFSE, that has been working without a contract for three months and is fighting unfair labor practices from @BeckyPringle's management.

[Becky Pringle @BeckyPringle]

If we value education, we must also value educators.

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

4/4 As a membership, we have entered a vote of no confidence in Jim Testerman’s leadership and have called for his removal from the table in order to move forward. Every worker deserves a fair contract, including a union’s organizers! #AFSEStrong #HotUnionSummer

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

1/4 The field organizers at NEA value the work we do to support our nation’s educators, but the tone at the table suggests NEA doesn’t value us.

As you know, we have been working without a contract since June 1, 2023.

[NEA-AFSE, NEA's Organizing Staff Union @AFSE_NEA]

3/4 Jim Testerman is the senior-most manager on management’s bargaining team. Our prolonged negotiations with this team under Testerman’s leadership indicate that management is unwilling to bargain productively and in good faith.
