UNM Graduate Workers have a certified union!
The United Graduate Workers of UNM have finally been recognized by the New Mexico Public Employee Labor Relations Board. Now they're demanding the University commit to bargaining with them, but the University hasn't committed to a date yet. The Union asks us for the following solidarity action:
We are now inviting our supporters across New Mexico (and across the world) to add their voices to graduate workers' formal demand for a start to collective bargaining.
Please take a moment today to send a letter to the UNM adminstration calling for urgent, good faith, negotiations.
If you would like to write a personal, handwritten message through our friends at the US Postal Service please address to Provost James Holloway at:
Office of the Provost
MSC05 3400
1 University of New Mexico
Albuquerque, NM 87131
For local supporters who wish to deliver their letters in person, we will be holding a community press conference on Wednesday, January 26th, at 12pm on the UNM campus. Please RSVP here for details.
