We did it! RAs win big in historic election
Congratulations! We’re union! We’re now certified as a bargaining unit by the NLRB and have the right to negotiate with the Research Foundation. Ballots were counted Friday night, December 5th, with a room full of union supporters and several representatives from the Research Foundation.
Sixty-one percent (214) voted for our union, and 39% (135) voted no, with a margin of victory of over 20%. We sent the Research Foundation a message loud and clear, “we’re united and we’re ready to bargain.”
If you haven’t yet done so, take a minute to fill out
We should all congratulate each other on this big victory, and thank each other for our hard work and for coming together to make this happen. Our unity moving forward is crucial because the stronger our union, the better the contract.
