Dear colleague,
Our Coalition of Rutgers Unions is holding a press conference Thursday at 1pm. You can watch it live at https://facebook.com/ruaaup.
We want to show the solidarity that unites 19 unions and nearly 20,000 workers against management’s divide-and-conquer tactics—and present our people-centered alternative to layoffs and cuts. The press conference will feature Rutgers faculty, staff, grad workers, health-care workers, and students, telling their stories about the human toll of management’s austerity-centered approach and asking why the administration is throwing away millions more in savings that our Coalition has offered with a work-sharing program.
Please tune in to https://facebook.com/ruaaup if you can on Thursday at 1pm and spread the word with your colleagues. You can download the above graphic to share on social media by clicking here.
In solidarity,
Todd and Becky
Todd Wolfson, President, Rutgers AAUP-AFT
Rebecca Givan, Vice President, Rutgers AAUP-AFT
