California College of the Arts students walk out in protest of staff layoffs
The CCA Student Union organized the walkout and blackout in support of the CCA Staff Union
A year ago, staff at California College of the Arts (CCA) went on a four-day strike in protest of the administration’s illegal labor practices, pushing for a first contract that took over two years (and that strike) to secure. Last month, CCA administration announced their intention to lay off 8-10% of frontline staff in response to lower than expected enrollment – even as they continue to pay their president, Stephen Beal, over $580,000 – more than any other private university president in the Bay Area with the exception of Stanford.
Tell San Joaquin County: Our Struggle Is Real!
Rise Up, Speak Out!
Your Bargaining Team needs you! We have told the county how they are having difficulty recruiting and retaining employees. We cannot tell your hardships. Only you can. We need each member to write a paragraph or two (or more if needed) about how the low wages have impacted you and your family. It is essential that you include your name and job title. We need to emphasize to the county that they can only solve this problem; they need to know that you are more than just workers; you are people who have financial responsibilities and are part of the community.

Call CA Senators Dianne Feinstein and Alex Padilla and demand massive federal relief
SEIU members and staff across California are making calls to urge Senators Dianne Feinstein and Alex Padilla to pass the $1.9 trillion stimulus package and to raise the federal minimum wage to $15 an hour. Our communities need strong public services, unemployment benefits, an equitable vaccination roll-out, and aid that cannot wait.
Yes! I commit to talk to five of my friends, family members, and co-workers to make sure they are registered to vote.
Our communities are in crisis because of COVID, but for many of us, the crisis started long before the virus hit. As we approach the next election, our members are demanding bold steps forward, and vowing they will not return to a status quo that may have worked for the richest 1% of our country, but had not worked for working people for decades.

Communities Protest Trump’s Racist “Public Charge” Rule
#OneNation, a coalition of unions and community groups, is
organizing actions across the nation next Tuesday to protest the
president’s racist ‘public charge’ rule, which cleared a
procedural hurdle last week. The administration’s policy targets
immigrants by dramatically expanding what is
considered welfare to harm 26 million Americans,
keeping them from accessing healthcare, food and housing
assistance. The impacts could also be felt across our
members’ industries and employers from community clinics to
counties.
March 7 International Women’s Day Action in SF
March & Rally - 1 South Van Ness, SF
Income inequality hurts all of us but attacks on the public services and programs that we provide hurt women disproportionately. Women are still 35 percent more likely than men to be in poverty in America.
In honor of International Women’s Day, join us in a march and rally to urge Mayor London Breed and our Board of Supervisors to do the right thing: strengthen our city’s poverty and homelessness prevention programs, prioritize services to women and families, and negotiate a fair contract with workers.
