CFA is an anti-racism, social justice union of 29k faculty at the California State University. We advocate for students, #highered, & faculty rights. #BlackLivesMatter #UnionStrong
Charges have been dropped against SEIU USWW President David Huerta. A win for workers! We won’t stop speaking up to demand justice for all workers, no matter where they were born. We will not be silenced.
We are outside the CSU board of trustees meeting demanding the CSU administration: Tune in the livestream of the CSU Board of Trustees here: https://tinyurl.com/CSUBoTlive #FundTheClassroomNotTheBoardroom
Not only has the CSU continually insulted and disrespected us, they’ve chosen to expand their disdain for workers by meeting at a hotel on UNITE HERE’s boycott list! Together with our union coalition partners, CFA members joined forces and let it be heard: WE WILL NOT TAKE DISRESPECT! #UnionPower
We proposed that the CSU give official notice at least four weeks prior to the start of appointments so that lecturers can prepare for classes. But CSU Management rejected this and every CFA proposal to improve job protections for faculty.
CFA Bargaining Update: CFA has won the next step after declaring impasse last week. PERB recognized that our arguments for declaring impasse were sound, over management’s objections. So CFA and CSU management are moving to mediation. Get involved today: www.cfabargaining.org
CFA Bargaining Team has declared impasse and that we must continue to organize together to ensure a worthwhile public higher education system for all. Contact your representative and learn how you can get involved today! #FundTheClassroomNotTheBoardroom www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqF6...

The story of America isn’t just written by presidents and politicians. It’s written by the enslaved Africans, the Indigenous peoples, the immigrants and the workers who organized, marched, voted, spoke up, and fought for justice. The work continues.
Bargaining is taking place right now, and we are proposing ongoing annual salary increases for all faculty! That includes our lecturers, tenure-line faculty, counselors, librarians, and coaches. Join us in funding the classroom, not the boardroom! #FundtheClassroomNotTheBoardroom

A $1.776 billion taxpayer-funded slush fund created through President Trump’s lawsuit against his own administration cannot operate above the Constitution. A coalition including CFA member Jonathan Caravello is suing to stop it. CFA members are proud of Caravello for taking part in this fight.
