We are unionizing to improve our working conditions through our collective power. Our union is Graduate Students United (GSU) and we are part of the United Auto Workers (UAW) Local 2322. Our uniting demands: YES to a universal minimum stipend at a living wage YES to protections for international student workers YES to addressing the housing crisis YES to high-quality healthcare, including dental and vision benefits YES to accessible childcare for working parents YES to protections against excessive workloads YES to a robust grievance procedure NO to the “comprehensive fee” We ask that you sign our letter in solidarity with us. This letter is addressed to the University of Vermont administration and we will deliver it to them the day of our rally. We are asking UVM to remain neutral in our union election and accept all funded graduate student workers into our bargaining unit. https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/stand-in-solidarity-with-graduate-student-workers-at-uvm
