CFA is an anti-racism, social justice union of 29k faculty at @calstate. We advocate for students, #highered, & faculty rights. #BlackLivesMatter#UnionStrong
Tonight, President Trump pushed years-old, thoroughly debunked, alarmingly dangerous conspiracy theories in an effort to undermine our elections. The purpose is clear: divide, scare and intimidate working people to weaken our democracy. https://t.co/0Jya7Cl61M

Our #UnionsForAll isn’t here to sit back on our heels playing defense! Union power has always been one of our strongest tools. That’s why folks are rising up across America demanding equity and dignity. Because having a living wage shouldn’t be a luxury, it must be the BARE MINIMUM.
Alt Text: Infographic with a thermometer describing the five steps of the bargaining process: Bargaining, Impasse, Mediation, Factfinding, and Strike.
A fire emoji on text reads “Mediation”. Describing that currently CFA has moved from bargaining, impasse and to mediation.
CFA Bargaining Update: CFA has won the next step after declaring impasse last week. PERB recognized that our arguments for declaring impasse were sound, over management’s objections. So CFA and CSU management are moving to mediation.

The wildest part about POVERTY is how much time it steals. Waiting for buses. Calling assistance offices. Comparing grocery prices. Fighting insurance. Sitting at laundromats. Being poor is a second job nobody pays you for.
This #SCOTUS decision is a direct attack on Black, Latino, Asian, and Native American voters. It weakens representation in Congress by diluting our votes and making it harder to elect leaders who fight for our real needs, from affordable housing and good jobs to healthcare and safe neighborhoods.
The future isn’t decided for us. It’s shaped by us. Our votes matter, our voices matter and together, we organize, mobilize, and win. ✊🏽

BREAKING: JURY FINDS PROFESSOR CARAVELLO NOT GUILTY! While some justice was restored by the jury’s decision, the beatings, the surveillance, and the trauma that John and others across the state and nation have had to endure cannot be ignored. #ICEOUT
"The California Labor Movement is relieved and empowered to hear that our @CFA_United Union brother John Caravello was just found NOT GUILTY for his role in standing up for workers against ICE in Ventura County.
Justice prevails!"

Let's finish this already! #NoContractNoCoffee
We hold in our hearts all of our trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming siblings stolen from us through acts of anti-transgender violence. Our community deserves to thrive and be their authentic selves and we will continue to fight for them side-by-side. 🏳️⚧️
