Dear Colleagues,
Today is the day! From 5:30-8:30 pm, the Boston City Council will hold a public hearing on the rights of graduate student workers at Boston’s institutions of higher education. Three Boston College graduate workers will join colleagues from Harvard , BU, and Northeastern to testify about the challenges graduate workers face and the importance of a fair union contract.
Graduate workers from Boston University, Boston College, Northeastern, and Harvard will be testifying about experiences working at our universities, the need to improve our working conditions and why universities need to respect our rights to a democratically elected union. Come be a part of this event and support grad workers who are speaking out about the need for a union - It’s critical for us to pack the room with graduate workers and supporters to show how strong our movement is!
WHEN
TODAY! Thursday, June 27th at 5:30pm (Note: There is a security check at the City Hall building, so plan to be there by 5pm to ensure you get in before the hearing). NOTE: City Hall has multiple entrances. If the "3rd floor" (plaza) entrance is closed as it may be after 530pm, the CONGRESS STREET entrance will still be open.
We will be meeting up in Marsh Plaza starting at 4pm and then heading to City Hall by 4:45pm if you want to go down as a group. And if you have a BUGWU button, wear it! Don't have one? We'll have extras at Marsh Plaza.
WHERE
Can we count on you to be there? Please let us know by RSVPing below.
In solidarity,
The BUGWU-UAW Organizing Committee
