UPTE Strike Nov. 17 and 18 - RSVP now

UPTE will be striking at all UC locations on November 17th and 18th in response to UC's failure to agree to a fair contract after 16 months of negotiations and 3 weeks of mediation. Learn more at upte.org/rsvp.

Our strike will be crucial to demonstrate our commitment to a contract that addresses the ongoing crisis of recruitment and retention which is endangering patient care and research.

That's why over ten thousand of our colleagues voted again to authorize our strike and why we are preparing for the largest strike in the history of the University of California. 

UC needs to see that we are more serious than ever about resetting UC's priorities. Attend your campus picket line to show them we won't rest until we get the contract our students, patients, and research deserve.

We have built the power to force them to do the right thing. Let's use it until we win.

In solidarity,
