We are seeking faculty signatories for a letter from UC faculty to Governor Newsom, Senate President Pro Tempore Toni G. Atkins, Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon, and California State Senate and Assembly representatives calling for the UC to bargain in good faith with the UAW strikers and for the State of California to reinvest in the UC. We believe that state government leaders do not fully appreciate how crucial graduate student and academic workers are to the UC’s mission, and we need to help convince them. Anna Markowitz and Graeme Blair here at UCLA drafted the letter, and we would love to have as many signatures from UC senate faculty and lecturers as possible, so please read the faculty letter and sign here! Please circulate the letter widely to your friends and colleagues throughout the UC, at https://forms.gle/bo2wnXkCU3iKuio3A.
