UC Berkeley 4 COLA!

Pay us enough to live here! Cops off campus, COLA in our bank account #cola4all #spreadthestrike

[UC Berkeley 4 COLA! @payusmoreucb]

shame on the @uaw2865 leadership! fuck you for selling us out yet again

[UCSC4COLA @payusmoreucsc]

.@uaw2865 voted against calling a strike authorization vote. We won't have a union-backed ULP strike this quarter. We had a legal framework to fight to get #COPSOFFCAMPUS, revert discipline, and get fired people their jobs back. But the Bargaining Team voted against.

[Berkeley Faculty Association @FacultyBerkeley]

mishandling #UAWonStrike, not telling campuses where money will come to fund ASE appointments, not providing funds to make up grading work, retrospectively docking pay for faculty and grad students fighting for #FairUCNow and not recognizing all the extra work they routinely do

[Berkeley Faculty Association @FacultyBerkeley]

Retweet if you think its time for a vote of no confidence in @UCPrezDrake? $1m pa, rent free $6m house, $2bn investment in Blackstone that will deepen housing crisis for all who work @UofCalifornia, accepting a cut in real terms from Governor’s budget despite rising costs 1/2

"UC’s deliberate implementation of these forms in response to protected activity is illegal. To remedy this interference with faculty’s protected rights, UC must immediately rescind and disavow these forms."

He was charged for things like appearing "aggressive" or "intimidating". He was *specifically* targeted by the police surveillance (including the use of FBI surveillance systems at the picket line). They constantly had eyes on him and I think we all know why. (2/3)

[Veronica Hamilton @RonicaTweets]

43 people are still dismissed. Many people have been disciplined for protesting. Carlos was dismissed and suspended. As far as I know he is the only person to receive a suspension and the charges are a clear reflection of the racist criminalization of student activists. (1/2)

[UCI4cola #StopCopCity @uci4cola]

During a pandemic, @ucihousing is threatening 2 evict students. @UCIrvine already increased rent last month & this shows they r trying to circumvent Newsom’s executive order& the judicial council eviction rule. The UC is CHOOSING 2 put profit over ppl #FuckTheUC #UCHatesStudents

[COLA Agitation Committee @SpreadtheStrike]

UCSC hired cops during a wildcat strike at $300k/day, a daily tab slightly more than our entire strike fund which: fed thousands of people for a month and kept ~40 fired grads paid for 6 months (+a bunch of legal fees, bail money, toilets, first aid, gas, signs, other supplies).

6/23: Nothing Personal, Just Business

From the prevailing administrative perspective of ERM (“Enterprise Risk Management”), graduate student workers are a living and breathing risk to the UC business model.

everyone's favorite account is back on twitter!

[Veronica Hamilton @RonicaTweets]

@ILWU_10 did something today that uaw2865 didn't have the courage to do. We need to wield our labor power! #SquashTheBossInsideYourHead #collectiveactiongetsthegoods #justiceforblacklives Grateful for the leadership of ILWU Local 10. We need more of this in the labor movement!

[UCLA4COLA 🥤54k. COLA. cops off campus. @ucla4cola]

@Dev14e UCLA hasn’t given out the summer stipends they had floated (lied about) to stop us from striking either! Learning some real lessons in academic integrity here from @UCLAgraddean and Janet

[Hannah Carlan @hannahcarlan]

Tenured faculty, GO ON STRIKE (fuck it, asst profs better strike too)

[dante @Richasineatme]

good thing the UAW2865 is using every tool available to fight for these workers oh wait jk they decided not to do the ULP strike and are just rolling over and letting the UC fire whoever they want

[UCSC4COLA @payusmoreucsc]

Wildcat strikers have been informed they are ‘ineligible’ for future employment at UCSC. Admin is denying grad workers employment and effectively pushing strikers out of their graduate programs

[UCLA4COLA 🥤54k. COLA. cops off campus. @ucla4cola]

Every worker on campus should strike for unsafe work conditions based on the undergraduate sardine can living arrangements alone.

Admins choosing profits over health and safety is the only explanation for this.

@UCLA @UCLAchancellor

[Roxy Davis @roxywdavis]

The UCSC admin is proactively blocking teaching appointments for grads who were fired for striking, even after their departments recommend them for these appointments. They really are trying to push us out of the university.

[UCLA4COLA 🥤54k. COLA. cops off campus. @ucla4cola]

“The only time I feel unsafe at Cal is when I’m around police officers.”
