SB 410 Steps
Bill Would Bring Fairer Pay Structure to the CSU
Senator Connie Leyva (D-Chino)
wrote an op-ed about our Steps Bill and it's a must-read!
"After more than two decades of contract
negotiations and passing the buck, the CSU has proven to be an
unreliable partner when it comes to addressing pay inequities.
"There is no debate as to the cause behind
the human resources crisis across the CSU: The University
underpays its workers.

"University leaders claim SB 410 may lead to
tuition hikes for students. That is a well-worn tactic to divide
students and staff. The CSU has a $11.9 billion budget; there
should be room for dialogue about how to fund the salary study
without trying to make students pay a price.
"In fact, the Cal State Student Association’s
position on SB410 is that it “supports efforts to rectify the
systemic issues that have led to years of salary inequities for
CSU staff as outlined in the Mercer study findings.”

Union President's Rebuttal Message to the CSU
|
Under legislative pressure to be more
accountable with state funds, the CSU opposes SB 410 (Steps Bill), falsely claiming
if enacted, the legislation would force the University to
increase student tuition.

CSUEU President Catherine Hutchinson
released a video statement to our CSU
community with a clear message:
"The CSU is engaging in misinformation when
it tells the media that paying staff decent wages will take away
from students. In fact, our work literally serves students and contributes
to their success.
We call on the CSU to take concrete steps to build
a University where all can thrive – not just top
administrators."
