UCLA Labor Coalition

Somos la coalición de uniones en UCLA - organizing to improve working conditions and empower workers at UCLA. Todo trabajo tiene dignidad.

[Rafa @rafaeldjaime]

In the midst of one of the largest climate catastrophes LA has seen in decades, UCLA is telling its workers "nothing to see here, come to work"

[UPTE @UPTECWA]

Optometrists across the @UofCalifornia spent their lunch break preparing picket signs for our ULP strike next week.

UC’s bad-faith bargaining harms not only optometrists but patients, too. Enough is enough ✊

Today is the day! UC Librarian bargaining begins today at UCSD and we’re kicking off a statewide action across UC campuses. Librarians will be tabling at each campus, so come by and “Vote for Librarians” to show your support.

At today's UC Regents' meeting we called on the University to raise the minimum wage for ALL UC employees to $25 per hour or a 5% increase for those already making $25 per hour.

📣 We are demanding a fair, livable wage! 🚨

[UAW 4811 @uaw_4811]

UAW 2865 is in solidarity with UCLA Lab School Teachers @UCAFT. We know a thing or two about bad-faith bargaining, and call on UCLA Management to come to the table in good faith. #solidarityforever

[Daniel M Schoorl @dmschoorl]

I just signed a petition calling on Principal @GeorgiaLazo to bargain in good faith. @UCAFT teachers are preparing to walk out next week in protest of @UCLALabSchool admin’s illegal tactics. Show your support and sign here: https://t.co/qxKgaPcRkH

[Teamsters Local 2010 @IBTlocal2010]

Solidarity with our fellow UC Unions! ✊

[University Council - AFT @UCAFT]

The higher ed strike wave continues next week @UCLA. UC-AFT teachers @UCLALabSchool, part of @uclaseis, will walk out on Jan. 25 to protest the administration’s illegal tactics. Click to tell Principal @GeorgiaLazo to bargain in good faith!

Time for @UCLALabSchool to bargain in good faith and settle a fair contract! ✊✊✊

[Teamsters Local 2010 @IBTlocal2010]

Today we honor Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his lifetime of work fighting for equal justice, which continues today. The labor movement and the fight for racial justice are deeply connected—an injury to one is an injury to all!

[University Council - AFT @UCAFT]

Power to the people romping @ the @UofCalifornia Regents meeting. @UCPrezDrake, make a fair deal now!

If you are an elected official in CA and you care about organized labor, you should not be speaking on UC campuses, classes or events while UAW is on strike. Don’t cross the picket line.

One day longer, one day stronger

[Trevor Griffey @TrevorGriffey]

We need your support. @UCAFT won a new contract that requires UC to give 2 year contracts to lecturers after 1 year of teaching. Most departments complied. Some didn't & fired their teachers to avoid giving them job security. @UCLA Spanish & Portuguese is one of the bad actors.

[Teamsters Local 2010 @IBTlocal2010]

HOW greedy is @uofcalifornia? UC President Drake makes $900k while UC #Teamsters take second and third jobs! We have not seen a wage proposal from UC leadership since May—CX Teamsters won’t wait any longer for the pay we’ve earned.

[UAW Local 5810 @UAW5810]

"There is an extreme imbalance of power between Postdocs and their supervisors at UC, especially when a supervisor can exert control over a postdoc's visa status. And it's all too common for supervisors to exploit that power." -UCSD Postdoc Adam Caparco

An historic investment of over $1 billion to expand @ucmerced and @UCRiverside? Yes please!

@UCAFT enthusiastically supports #AB2046, co-authored by @AsmJoseMedina and @AdamGrayCA.

Let @Portantino know that #AB2046 should be released from "suspense" and voted on in the Senate.

[Evan White @EvanBWhite]

Why would @UofCalifornia centralize payroll and benefits at @UCPathCenter and then under-resource it so tremendously?

No response for weeks (months!) on PAYROLL issues. And if you get someone on the phone, they say they're backed up and we should expect to wait months. Really?
