UC WORKERS ASK FOR A FAIR WAGE
Last Thursday, nearly 100 UC San Diego students marched in solidarity with university workers to protest low wages and meager pension plans. Two organizations, the Labor Commission of Associated Students (ASUCSD) External Affairs and the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) Local 3299 protested at two separate locations. Following the expiration of the service workers’ contract last June, the AFSCME proposed the new contract include an 18% over three years and the maintenance of their pension and health care plans, which the university wants to cut.
