CUNY has agreed to contract bargaining sessions on June 27 and 29. The administration listed other potential dates for contract talks: July 10, August 8, August 22 and September 6.
The union has been demanding bargaining dates since December. Members rallied at CUNY Central at the end of February as the most recent PSC-CUNY contract expired and demonstrated June 5 outside the Wall Street offices of CUNY Board of Trustees Chair William Thompson. CUNY’s offer of bargaining dates followed immediately thereafter.
ACHIEVING DEMANDS
The union has an ambitious bargaining agenda, which was published in the March 2023 issue of Clarion. Member-to-member organizing is a central component to the union’s strategy to win at the bargaining table. Members should participate in local Campus Action Teams and stay in touch with their chapter leaders to learn how go get involved.
