PSC-CUNY | A Forceful Advocate

Tax the Rich!

The PSC is campaigning to enact fair share taxation of wealthy corporations and the rich to raise the revenue needed to protect NYC from Trump's cuts and build the affordable city and university we all deserve. Get on the bus to Albany for the Feb 25th Tax the Rich Rally.

Three Down, One to Go!

Three of the CUNY Fired Four have been reinstated. We celebrate this victory for organizing and contract enforcement, but will keep fighting until all four PSC members dismissed in apparent retaliation for expressing their political views about Palestinian human rights have been rehired.

New Health Benefits Plan to Replace Emblem/GHI

The Municipal Labor Committee (MLC) has approved a new health benefits plan for active employees, pre-Medicare retirees, and their dependents. The New York City Employee PPO Plan, administered by Emblem and United Healthcare, will replace the current GHI plan administered by Emblem and Anthem/Blue Cross starting January 1, 2026.
