In their letter, they affirm the right of all grads, including international students, to organize. Having broad support from the wider community is essential to building our union and we are grateful to have their continued support.

Fact: Unionizing your workplace and being active in your union helps ALL workers, whether they’re part of a union or not. More union power means higher wages for everyone.

Yesterday, optics department grads gathered for a happy hour at Beerhead to socialize and chat about our union. As we rapidly approach our union election in April, it is now more important than ever for grads to sign their union card and share it with a friend (link in bio).

One misconception about unionization is that if we have W2 forms we will have to pay FICA taxes. This is untrue because we will still be legally considered students, so we will be exempt. Join our movement today by signing a union card and sharing with a coworker (link in bio)
