Union Announcements
🌟 Happy May Day/International Workers’ Day! (May 1) – the day that honors the fight for the 8-hour workday and fair labor conditions, commemorates the 1886 Haymarket Affair and workers’ sacrifices, and symbolizes global worker solidarity and ongoing labor struggles.
🔑 Classification Updates & Next Steps
- Employees with new classifications will be notified between May 5–9. Those with no changes will hear from HR afterward (date range TBD).
- Watch for an invitation to our upcoming chapter meeting shortly after May 9th, where we’ll explain all we know and how to proceed determining salary schedule placement, and your questions.
📢 Call to Action! - Let’s advocate for the strongest outcome possible for our community!
· If not already a member, Join CSUEU! - Our power is in our numbers!
· If already a member, contribute to the CSUEU Political Action Committee (PAC)! – While the CSU spends $1 million, our systemwide PAC contributions total only $10K. Note: this funding pays for CSUEU lobbyist(s) to advocate for US, the workers, at the state capitol! Questions? Contact Julie or Karen.
· Keep contacting YOUR state representatives and urge them to FULLY FUND THE CSU! Use this link to Find YOUR Rep!
· Use the “Keep the Promise” zoom background in your meetings (attached) in meetings as we await the May Budget Revise.
