We are still here. It’s almost midnight. 7am approaches.

We hope to reach a deal, but we still need to see movement on our priorities.

Our team is committed to bringing our members and students the best contracts possible.

Earlier this evening, we announced a strike deadline.
Management has until 7am Wednesday.
Our members are TIRED OF THE DISRESPECT. After almost 15 months of bargaining, hundreds of hours at the table and testimony after testimony, management can’t say they don’t know what members and students need.
