We are super excited to re-launch our $15 for Pitt campaign petition! We are doing an online petition to try and reach more of our fellow students who believe in $15 and fair wages on our campus. Let's prove to admin this is what the student body wants! https://t.co/JvnHokzVJ5

On 2.28.20, we disrupted the Board of Trustees meeting because they failed to vote on fossil fuel divestment. Now on 3.4.20, 12 days since we began our occupation of Cathy, we’re choosing to leave, stronger than ever. We will not rest until @PittTweet divests. #divestpitt

[USAS Local #31 @USAS_Local_31]

The student body has spoken. Pitt, your move.

@PittLiberator @USAS_Local_31 We can all win, this isn’t a battle of staff vs students. We all deserve fair wages
