We call on the powers that be to release the students and employees who have been arrested, and if you can’t take the outcry, stop supporting this war.
Our union has been calling for a ceasefire for six months. This war is wrong, and this response against students and academic workers, many of them UAW members, is wrong.
Want to spend your summer building a fighting labor movement? There's still time to apply to the UAW Region 6 organizer training program!

Friday is International Women’s Day! UAW has a proud history of fighting for gender equity, and members of Region 6 carry that tradition forward every day, building power to win on issues that disproportionately impact women -- esp. women of color, immigrants, & trans women 🧵
📣 Student Assistants: if you have a job on campus in IT, clerical, operations, custodial services, vote #UnionYES with @csueu before Thursday! #StudentWorkerPower✊

already thousands of CSU students have made their voices heard in the largest student worker election in history. we only have 9 days left, DON’T miss this moment. make sure to vote before Feb. 22 #UnionsForAll#SEIU
After 8 months of reopener bargaining & numerous job actions including 2 sets of strikes, 76% of voting CFA members approved our TA. We thank members for their solidarity, debate, & courage to press CSU management for better faculty working and student learning conditions.
We WON our union at Caltech! 🎉 Over 76% of graduate students (799/1045 voters) and 83% of postdocs (240/290 voters) voted yes.
This is the first time in academic labor history that grads and postdocs voted to unionize simultaneously.
Onward towards a better Caltech! 💪
In the past month, nearly 4000 workers in Region 6 have filed union petitions at Caltech, USC, UC Santa Barbara, UC Berkeley, and Western Washington University. The surge of worker organizing in higher ed can’t be stopped! @cgpu_uaw @AFAatUSC @sdlu_uaw @KAL_PTWorkers@wawu
WE FILED! With a supermajority of UCSB student dining hall workers in support, we made the trip to Oakland today to file authorization cards with PERB.
UC should do the right thing and recognize our union—but if they don’t we’re ready to keep fighting!
CSU #Teamsters support students every day with our work, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the hundreds of students who turned out for our Nov. 14 strike to support us. Thank you to SQE, YDSA, @USAS, SATH and every individual CSU student who stands with CSU workers!
Today is Filing Day! 🎉 We just attempted to deliver our letter requesting a fair process towards union recognition. Unfortunately, Provost Tirrell refused to accept a physical copy. So, we went ahead and taped it onto his door. 😬
By my count there are currently 165,000 student workers in certified or recognized unions. This number has increased by 65,000 since 2020, and there are currently a minimum of 34,500 additional in the pipeline from those that have filed for an election.
This weekend, members from across Region 6 came together for our 1st ever Education & Communication Conference to strategize education & comms strategies for building cross-sector power #HotLaborFall 🍂 @uaw2865 @uawlocal230@UAW4123@gswocusc@uaw4121@UAW2350@UAW5810
