RnF Academic Workers for a Democratic Union

Rank and File Academic Workers for a Democratic Union, UCI chapter.
In solidarity with our comrades across California and the world (but not the Admin Caucus)!

[UAW 4811 @uaw_4811]

We’re not stopping! Join your coworkers next Wednesday morning, July 19th, at the UC San Francisco Rutter Center for the UC Regents meeting where we will continue to demand that felony and student conduct charges against workers be dropped and our contract be implemented in full!

Support workers and don't buy coffee from companies run by bigots

The Picket Line Protection Bill, AB504, would protect all California public sector employees right to respect a picket line. Sign the letter and join the fight to protect everyone’s right to solidarity. https://t.co/59N0iKLRE7

Sorry, @UCIrvine, but:
No paycheck=no rent
No doormats=no rent
No water=no rent
No laundry=no rent

[Fernanda @postautonoma]

what if all grad students living in housing organize to not pay rent during the months we are not receiving a salary - our landlord is our boss, who pays our wages. they should understand, right?

Happy May Day! Today, workers everywhere celebrate the struggle and victories that have built the labor movement–continue the celebration this Wednesday, May 3rd, at a political education and solidarity zoom town hall with our union siblings @UCAFT @SEIULocal99 @CSUEU

[UAW 4811 @uaw_4811]

Notes:
Additional remedy requested by appellants was the reimbursement of "No Vote" campaigners.

In light of potential technical issues, the vote of Zoom attendees was re-run. By show of hands, members voted to accept the findings of the eBoard by an even larger margin
@uaw2865

[RnF Academic Workers for a Democratic Union @RanknFileUCI]

By a vote of 242 to 28, the attendees of the Statewide Membership Meeting for UAW 2865 adopt the findings of our executive board and deny the requested remedies of the appellants (inter al., annulment of 2022 contract, informing UC of annulment, new ratification vote)

[RnF Academic Workers for a Democratic Union @RanknFileUCI]

Ah yes, love to peak behind the curtain to see the procedural sausage making, re: resolutions

@uaw2865 @UAW5810

[RnF Academic Workers for a Democratic Union @RanknFileUCI]

The real issue that will bring @uaw2865 and @UAW5810 together is the need to buy some damn Bluetooth mics for these meetings because the audio quality is ass

[RnF Academic Workers for a Democratic Union @RanknFileUCI]

Well, far be it from us to note that almost as many workers voted for Bendekgey as voted for Fain

[RnF Academic Workers for a Democratic Union @RanknFileUCI]

And congrats to Kelsey and Randy, too!
They are awesome organizers and hopefully we'll get another chance to elect them after apportionment in the Fall vacancy election.

[UC Union MADE @UCUnionMADE]

It’s official—UAW 2865 is Union MADE! Members of our slate swept nearly every seat across the state in the highest-turnout election in the history of our union. It’s clear an overwhelming majority of our union is behind our positive vision to build a more powerful union.

[RnF Academic Workers for a Democratic Union @RanknFileUCI]
