Join us at the Rutgers picket lines! (Newark)

April 21, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 5:00 pm

As many of you already know, thousands of workers at Rutgers have gone on strike to demand better wages and working conditions. They face union and strike busting measures from Rutgers’ president and admin, who have threatened to seek a court injunction to stop the strike.

The PSC GC chapter will be traveling to the Rutgers picket
line to show some solidarity. We urge all at the GC and professional schools to come join us! Some GC folks have already made the trip over, and it’s been energizing and inspirational. See our comrade Olivia Wood’s recent speech at their rally.

We will be gathering at the Newark campus around 10 AM. To get to Rutgers by then, take the 9:22 train toward Summit on NJ transit at Penn Station; you can also take the PATH train, which is the same price as the subway. Let Nathan Nikolic know you’re coming (nikolic.nathan@gmail.com or 3479633385).

A modest lunch will likely be provided by the Rutgers organizers. Please donate a few bucks to their strike fund here, if you can.
