So @UofCalifornia is doling out double-digit raises to administrators while campuses are announcing cuts to the academic workforce? Where are @UCPrezDrake's priorities?

We are not waiting around for UC leaders to value our labor. We are bringing our fight to their offices and to their mansions. And we'll keep coming back until we win fair contracts. #UAWonStrike

Can't nobody take us down, Can't nobody hold us down, oh, no, we got to keep on striking. 🎶 (That is until we get a fair contract). #UAWStrike #FairUCnow
UAW 4811@uaw_4811

Gated, private islands can’t keep us out! Our amphibious strike brigade set sail for the the moated isle of @UCIrvine mega donor Donald Bren this morning. Donald, call @UCPrezDrake and tell him you wanted your money to help the workers, not the Chancellors!!

But where will the money come from? Says #UC, and silent & unsupportive PI’s. Given how much money UC takes from PI grants, u’d think PI’s would be more upset at UC for these raises & more supportive of us who do all the work on the grants.@UCRCNAS #FairUCNow

BREAKING: The UC Regents approved salary increases for all 10 chancellors who lead campuses. The decision came with one no vote and one abstaining. The raises kick in March 2022 and range from 9% to 25% in salary increases for the chancellors. The deets below remain the same.

Standing with @uaw2865 @sruuaw calling on the University of California to bargain in good faith and deliver a fair contract for the nearly 50,000 researchers, teaching assistants and instructors that are still on strike at UC.

Workers are peacefully occupying the lobby of the UC Path center in Riverside, but @UCRiverside called the police! Why is this institution so afraid of the people who carry out its core mission?

.@UofCalifornia told the LA Times their compensation proposal would make grad workers 'the highest paid among comparable public and private institutions.' We ran the numbers - That's a bold-faced lie. UC's proposals are uniquely low. @UofCalifornia can do better.

NEW: Fears rise about long-term effects of @UofCalifornia strike on system's teaching and research mission. Faculty have been sounding alarm for two decades, urge more funding for long-neglected needs of grad students. @uaw2865 @UAW5810 @sruuaw bit.ly/3ilalZ3

We are now entering week two of unfair labor practice strikes by UAW-represented academic workers at the University of California. Their talent is what enables UC’s world-class research. I’m leading colleagues to call on UC to reach a resolution and bargain in good faith.
