We’re excited to welcome Ohio University faculty to the @AFTUnion family, so we can stand up for academic freedom, democracy, and a strong university for all. Ohio Fed. of Teachers

On Thursday, GETUP rallied with fellow Penn unions to demand that Penn administration STOP PREEMPTIVELY COMPLYING with the Trump White House’s illegal attacks on higher education. We will fight to defend our coworkers, our students, & our communities!

PROOF THAT STRIKE THREATS WORK!! (To learn more about making your Strike Threat credible, come to Strike School this Saturday)

Today, we showed up for our scheduled bargaining session with Penn management. Some of us were admitted, but other members of our union arrived to join and were denied entry. This is unacceptable. Our members demand transparency from Penn!

We welcome the newest cultural workers union in Los Angeles. It will cover 300 workers at two famous Los Angeles Museums. afscme.org/blog/workers-a…

🧵 Statement from UAW President Shawn Fain on Attacks on Federal Workers: Yesterday, President Trump signed an order that tramples on the union rights of more than a million federal workers, stripping them of their ability to negotiate over their working conditions.

Every grad worker should feel accommodated and supported at Penn. Grad workers: sign our petition demanding Penn admin include strong anti-discrimination & anti-harassment clauses in our contract at tinyurl.com/GETUP-discrim

"Wellesley College broadly presents itself as a progressive institution committed to feminist and social justice values. Its approach to bargaining a first contract with its non-tenure-track faculty, however, tells a different story." UAW Region 9A jacobin.com/2025/04/non-te…

Hear from UAW President Shawn Fain why thousands of UAW members across the country are taking action to kill the Trump administration’s cuts to lifesaving research, healthcare, and education. The fight is far from over — find more information at killthecuts.org.
