First name or Friend,
Maryland educators don’t have the right to unionize under current Maryland law. University educators, including graduate students who perform an increasingly larger share of the teaching at many institutions, are paid poverty-level wages and employed on short-term contracts. Workers in Maryland's public institutions of higher education are organizing to pass legislation allowing them to engage in collective bargaining.
Collective bargaining is a fundamental right of all workers, but educators in Maryland state institutions of higher education are denied this right under current law. Collective bargaining between university educators and administration is the best way to ensure accountability in our public higher education institutions and ensure that they remain among the best in the world. Let's make sure we don't leave our university educators behind!
