DESCRIPTION:7/19/23 Stop Union Busting UAW 2865 and 5810 academic workers will rally 
 outside the UC Regents meetings at UCSF’s Rutter Center (Mission Bay 
 campus) at 7:30 AM\n\nTomorrow morning at 7:30 AM, UAW 2865 and 5810 
 academic workers will rally outside the UC Regents meetings at UCSF’s 
 Rutter Center (Mission Bay campus) to demand that UC stop its retaliation 
 against approximately 70 UAW members at UCSD and implement our contracts. 
 Will you be there?\n\nClick Here to RSVP!\nOn June 30th, two UCSD graduate 
 workers and one Postdoc were arrested on felony charges in relation to a 
 peaceful chalking protest on campus. This wildly disproportionate reaction 
 comes while academic workers at UCSD and across the UC system have been 
 pushing UC to honor their contractual obligations. Last Monday, 300 workers 
 from across UC rallied outside San Diego Central Courthouse on the date set 
 for the three arrestees’ arraignment on false charges. But UC failed to 
 submit charges to the San Diego DA’s office that day, and to date they 
 still haven’t done so. This shows that the pressure is working—but we 
 need to keep it up and tomorrow’s Regents meeting is a crucial 
 opportunity to do just that. Please RSVP now!\n\nLegal Defense Fund for 
 UCSD Arrestees\nIf UC does submit charges, the San Diego arrestees will 
 need legal support. You can help provide this, and deter future UC 
 retaliation, by contributing to their legal defense fund. All undisbursed 
 money will be donated to the San Diego & Imperial Counties Labor 
 Council’s community services division.\n\nIn solidarity,\n\nJulia

 RSVP\n\nhttps://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfyaqVRdeeNEDoMaqNuqnWmKgYhb3BOnL3wx6_1fZfNyr8eaA/viewform\nOn 
 June 29th, three UAW members at UC San Diego were arrested, charged with 
 felonies, and held in jail overnight — all for allegedly chalking a 
 building and writing in washable markers on the windows to protest UC's 
 refusal to fairly implement our union contracts. UC is trying to back out 
 of the promises they made in our contracts, and they can't see any way out 
 of their obligations other than intimidating our coworkers. These arrests 
 are an attack on our fundamental rights to free speech and collective union 
 activity, and workers on every campus are fighting back.\n\nWe'll be 
 rallying at outside the Regents Meeting at 7:40am on July 19th at the 
 Rutter Center in San Francisco to tell UC we will not be intimidated. (Note 
 that the date has changed from July 18th to July 19th!)\n\nTo learn more 
 about this incident, read this exclusive KPBS reporting or this article by 
 UAW 2865 president Rafael Jaime, and sign the petition demanding UC drop 
 these spurious charges.\n
