California College of the Arts Staff, Adjuncts, and Students Lead Powerful ULP Strike
Classes were shut down and community support ran high.
Last week, staff at California College of the Arts (CCA) executed a powerful four-day unfair labor practice (ULP) strike after nearly 2.5 years of trying to negotiate a first contract since they formed their union with SEIU 1021 in 2019.

SEIU 1021 Welcomes 260 New Members: Alameda Health System / EBMG Physicians
After the historic 2020 unfair labor practice strike by SEIU 1021 members at Alameda Health System, other workers in the system wanted to know how they could build power and make a difference.

Last week, 260 EBMG physicians won recognition from management and became members of our union.
