All @aaup members can feel proud that they played a role in this historic victory for bargaining rights. Even though legislators cut us out, we never once broke ranks. We lived our values. We acted in solidarity. We centered the margins. Our turn is coming. And we will win! ✊

To the #MasonNation, help us build a stronger university. Tell lawmakers: Don't cut higher ed workers out of collective bargaining. From groundskeepers to adjunct profs, from student workers to full-time faculty. Higher ed working conditions are student learning conditions.
Dr. Gregory Washington@GMUPres

Saddam Salim, a George Mason alumnus and current VA State Senator, took time to address students during Mason Lobbies. #AllTogetherDifferent #MasonNation

THIS IS WHY faculty, staff, and graduate students need collective bargaining rights and a wall to wall union. Virginia State fired six beloved profs with no notice and no due process. A union forces admins to be just and fair! vpm.org/news/2026-02-2…

Thank you @SalimVASenate @ssurovell @HelmerVA @unitehere @SEIU_Virginia @UCWVA for standing with @AAUPMason @AAUP @Local6741 as we fight for the rights of ALL public sector workers--including higher ed and home health care workers--to collectively bargain for a better future!

Glad to be with the VA Labor Coalition and United Academics Local 6741 to support collective bargaining, because nothing is affordable without fair pay! @ssurovell @HelmerVA @SEIU_Virginia @va_labor

"[We] promised that we'd be a pro-worker Virginia" said @HelmerVA. "When workers bargain, workers win...Virginia wins!" We couldn't agree more @AAUPMason! All public sector workers deserve the right to bargain. Thank you @HelmerVA @ssurovell @SalimVASenate for the fight!

"We are moving forward with collective bargaining for each and every one of you!" says @SalimVASenate. There are so many inequities in higher ed to be solved through bargaining @AAUP @AAUPMason. Thank you @VASenateDems @VAHouseDems for your support of public sector workers!

Happening Now: @ltgovhashmi and @AGJayJones are set to speak in support of giving home healthcare workers and higher education workers the right to collectively bargain. A Senate-passed bill to allow for public sector collective bargaining excludes home healthcare workers. A House-passed version excludes higher education workers.

Tax Big Data, fund healthcare and higher ed, and pass collective bargaining for all state employees. This will strengthen Virginia's economy and support Virginia's working families!
L. Louise Lucas@SenLouiseLucas

One in four Virginians say they must decide each month between paying their grocery bills, energy bills or medical bills. We will not allow these hardworking Virginians to be put under even more hardship while data centers drive up their costs and demand tax breaks for doing so.

Collective bargaining for faculty = fair treatment = job security = protection from political interference = a fearless faculty pursuing the truth = a world-class education for Virginia's students 💯💯💯 @donscott757.bsky.social @vasenatedems.bsky.social @vademocrats.bsky.social

Remember when Michael Moore won the Oscar back in 2003 and was one of the first to bravely condemn the Bush administration for manipulating Americans into a senseless war with Iraq for no reason yet got booed by the Academy audience only to be proven right all along. Cos I sure as hell do. History just keeps repeating itself now with Iran and Palestine.
