Dear UC-AFT members,
Last week, UC-AFT members voted overwhelmingly in favor of the executive board's proposal for a modest dues increase. The final results of the dues vote are in, and all nine locals voted in favor of the increase with very good voter turnout. The fact that the increase passed by fairly wide margins on almost all campuses is reassuring and energizing for the UC-AFT executive board.
To UC - AFT Members: Please submit nominations for UC-AFTofficer candidates for the following positions to the Nominations Committee members listed below by 6 March 2012.
