Buffs for Progress

Formerly the CU “Buffs for Bernie.” Student organization @CUBoulder dedicated to enacting a political revolution and fighting for a better world!

[Buffs for Progress @Buffs4Progress]

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! While Bernie catalysed a movement of progress for the masses of this country, it doesn’t end with him-- we must continue the struggle for a better world! We are excited to announce our transformation from “Buffs for Bernie” to “Buffs for Progress” this semester

Derek Chauvin has been found guilty on all counts.

We’ll start with accountability but there’s no justice until the system has fundamentally changed.

Please remember that George Floyd should still be alive today.

It’s a good day but the fight continues.

CU regents will see an opportunity to raise tuition for students already struggling and say “oh yeah, let’s do the maximum on that”

About to make us act up MORE 😳

[Too Much Tuition CU @2MuchTuitionCU]

Tuition is being raised 3%.

@Buffs4Progress @CUSystem @2MuchTuitionCU I definitely don’t feel valued as a student with @CUBoulder’s lack of substantive action when we need it most. It’s BEEN time to #ShareTheCARES!

[scoudz @scoudz]

It is - and has been - time for CU to step up and value the education and wellbeing of their students above profits.

[Buffs for Progress @Buffs4Progress]

If not to help our students, what truly IS CU’s purpose? Because that’s not what they’ve been doing for the past year—students have received exactly $0 in tuition reduction at an institution that had the funds to do so and was already inaccessibly expensive.

Cmon man

Under capitalism, automation of jobs is a threat and terrifying. Under communism, automation looks like freedom.

If history teaches us anything, it is that big money interests do not just give you anything. You've got to stand up and you've got to fight for it. There is no excuse for workers at Amazon not to have good wages, good benefits, and good working conditions.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

—Forcing workers to urinate in bottles
—Firing pregnant women for taking too many bathroom breaks
—Surveilling employees who posed ‘labor organizing threats’

This is why Amazon workers are unionizing.

Solidarity with @BAmazonUnion as they finish their historic organizing drive.

[Buffs for Progress @Buffs4Progress]

It’s been one FULL YEAR since covid started, and students have received exactly $0 in aid from CU.

So, what truly is CU’s purpose? Let us know THIS THURSDAY April 1st at 2pm!

[Too Much Tuition CU @2MuchTuitionCU]

In light of recent events, we will not be doing this tomorrow. We will postpone until next week, on April 1st.

Stay well, get help, be kind (to others and yourself). #BoulderStrong

[Too Much Tuition CU @2MuchTuitionCU]

I think the next thing we should push for is to get something up on CU's campus in honor of their biggest fan, Teri Leiker. Rest in peace. <3 #skobuffs4Teri #BoulderStrong

@CUBoulder - you down?!
@CUBarstool - you agree?!

[Shannon Watts @shannonrwatts]

You literally own a restaurant called Shooter’s Grill and allow waitstaff to open carry. You refuse to go through metal detectors and you’re trying to change policy to allow guns in the Capitol. Also, this is how you show up for Congressional hearings. Keep it.
