Members Gather for Contract Kickoff

Our contact kickoff started last week with Fullerton, San Bernardino, and San Diego State. Career Staff and Student Assistants are coming together to identify what we want to fight for this year. 

We are organizing together to increase our visibility and activity to win a strong contract with full salary steps and paid sick time for student workers. 

Are you ready to turn up the heat on the CSU to ensure we get our fair share? The contract kickoff events, which continue in March (this week: L.A., Northridge, Dominguez Hills, and Cal Poly Pomona) are opportunities for union members to connect and begin strategizing what we are willing to do to win full steps implementation and fair first contract for student workers.

I was able to speak with many members as we engaged in discussions on topics such as better working conditions, benefits and a livable wage. We must stay informed, be engaged to WIN our contract." - Lola Cromwell, ASC II, San Bernardino
