Our second bargaining meeting begins today! Bargaining is when a labor union and their bosses set rules to make the workplace fair. We are excited to keep going. And we will keep the community updated on our progress! Learn more here: https://t.co/ELaCeoXrnS

One month ago, we publicly launched ASAU! And while we were excited to quickly gain voluntary recognition, we have been disappointed in ASAN’s leadership for disputing the inclusion of 3 of our members.

[Guild of Autistic Self-Advocate Staff (GASS) @AutStaffGuild]

We are still collecting signatures to encourage them to do the right thing and stop disputing those members. Please sign here and share the petition: https://t.co/iOhQu4aUvy)
