After Cornell workers won a record contract last year, UAW bus drivers are turning up the heat in their fight for COLA, retention benefits, & other essential benefits to support Ithaca TCAT drivers! Join us tomorrow in front of the TCAT office to demand a fair contract now!

Excited to be supporting a friend and fellow activist Hannah Shvets in her campaign to be the next alderperson for Ward 5 Ithaca Common Council! Join us this Friday to kick off her campaign and send an incredible student organizer to the Common Council to fight for us!

Just wanted to announce that @IthacaDSA beat @cornellydsa in bowling

[Ithaca DSA 🌹 @IthacaDSA]

STATEMENT: Ithaca DSA stands in solidarity with student activists on Cornell Campus, including our comrades in @cornellydsa. We condemn Cornell's vindictive retaliation against those protesting the genocide of Palestine. Full statement below:

[nick @unionnick]

solidarity forever with my brother @atakandeviren04, who was unjustly barred from cornell’s campus for 3 years. in his stead i’m proud to step up as co-chair of @cornellydsa, which has grown remarkably fast and become a fixture of our campus politics in under a year and a half.

Cornell could pay its effective tax rate to the Ithaca City School District this year and still be $836 million in the green — it wouldn’t have to touch its other holdings. Join us for a RALLY TOMORROW calling on Cornell to fund Ithaca schools and pay our teachers @IthacaTeachers

“Strong” gain: @Cornell’s endowment returned 8.7% in the fiscal year ending June 30, adding nearly $860 million in net investment gains to close with a value of approximately $10.7 billion, according to the Office of University Investments. https://t.co/xAslgt10G7

This is what happens when labor power and people's movements take on the rising draconian repression on university campuses ✊

⚡️When we fight, we win! ⚡️

Many thanks to our grad union siblings and our local @cornellydsa @cmlcornell @BSU_Cornell @aaup_cornell

We defend our own. Hands off Momodou, divest now.

[The Cornell Daily Sun @cornellsun]

Following the suspension of an international pro-Palestine graduate student, multiple groups on campus have launched support campaigns to pressure administrators to reverse their course.

great afternoon phonebanking for @MomodouTaal yesterday 🔒💪

[Cornell Chapter of YDSA @cornellydsa]

RALLY AT 12:30: Over 186,000 Palestinians have been murdered in Gaza, and Cornell has responded by threatening to deport one of our campus’ most vocal advocates against genocide and imperialism. Today we rally for Palestine, for Lebanon, and for our friend Momodou. Be there.

CORNELL COMMUNITY: Please sign and share this petition in solidarity with our friend and comrade Momodou: https://t.co/4KaYlL8n4k

Cornell YDSA stands with @MomodouTaal, who has been illegally suspended and threatened with deportation. In his words, @Cornell suspended him “to shift the focus away from their complicity in genocide.”

[Cornell Chapter of YDSA @cornellydsa]

Momodou’s suspension violates Cornell’s new “three strikes” disciplinary policy, and he is being targeted intentionally as an international student on an F-1 visa linked to employment. @Cornell MUST respond to @Cornell_GSU’s request to bargain over the suspension.

[nick @unionnick]

Cornell just became the first university of the spring semester to suspend a student for pro-Palestine organizing. They’re intentionally targeting an international student & one of the most visible advocates for divestment on our campus—the Cornell community won’t tolerate this.

Wednesday’s career fair action with @CMLCornell on @DemocracyNow!

[Cornell Chapter of YDSA @cornellydsa]

Cornell trustee Kraig Kayser is engaged in genocide profiteering. It’s no wonder @Cornell leadership refuses to divest from genocide when it’s lining their pockets. If President Michael Kotlikoff wants Cornell to be “neutral,” he should call for Kayser to resign.

[Derek Seidman @derekseidman80]

I’m not sure how well known it is that the chair of Cornell’s board of trustees, Kraig Kayser, is also a board director of - and a big shareholder in - a major weapons company, which is headquartered just outside Buffalo 🧵

Disclose, divest, we will not stop, we will not rest
