    Chauncey had to explain what eliminating tiers meant to the Cornell team. (A tier is a higher pay grade or benefit that is forever unobtainable by employees not in the tier, versus a step which is a higher pay grade obtainable by seniority).

    The bargaining committee reminded the HIGHLY paid lawyer representing the University, Laurie Johnston, that our membership will not continue living paycheck to paycheck. That being left behind while Cornell University keeps raking in record profits and continuing to expand the infrastructure and invest in buildings not people is unacceptable. Finally, we reminded Cornell that it is our hands and hard physical labor that are developing the profits for the campus, and we will NOT be walking away from the bargaining table without what we deserve!

    Sisters, brothers, and siblings,

    Your bargaining committee met with the university today and we discussed their response to our economic package that didn't come close to meeting our membership needs and expectations.

    We went through each of their rejected demands line by line and asked direct questions regarding their attitude of dismissal for our proposals. These questions Included why Veterans Day with pay was rejected for Veterans, why our parking proposal was rejected, why Dining and other Student Campus Life (SCL) clothing allowances were rejected.

    Many of the answers to the questions we posed were postponed until next week as "Cornell's only professional negotiator" needed time to come up with answers for the pointed questions we asked.

    Jules hammered home the members' proposal at the Botanic Gardens to have a provision for cell phones. He provided detailed information outlining the importance of having the phone on Cornell's expansive property.

    The Cornell committee seemed disinterested in what was being discussed except for their smirks.

    Ronda gave an eye-watering and heart-wrenching account of the Cornell wages provided, drawing parallels to her experience as a new mom in 1990 and seeing the same old, same old today.

    Molly queried about the floating holidays and why others on campus should have the ability to observe their particular holidays but not us.

    John asked questions about the rejection of COLA (Cost of Living Adjustment) and vehicle allowance increases.

    Chauncey had to explain what eliminating tiers meant to the Cornell team. (A tier is a higher pay grade or benefit that is forever unobtainable by employees not in the tier, versus a step which is a higher pay grade obtainable by seniority).

    President Christine Johnson, argued aggressively and emotionally for the Statler tipped wage staff to be made whole in their retirement contributions.

    We want to thank everyone for the turnout at yesterday's A LOT rally despite the last-minute announcement and rain. We had a lot of information available and given by your UAW Region 9 International Rep. Lonnie Everett.

    Very important OUR NEXT BARGAINING UNITY RALLY will be Tuesday, July 16 at 1:30 N LOT Tower Road across from Mann Library by the Athletic fields.

    In Solidarity, your UAW...

    Your bargaining committee met with the University. We spoke to the University about the issues with Veterans. The University is paying the Police Union, yet they refuse our proposal. We questioned them on their comments on why the Police get it off with pay and not the UAW.  

    We want to thank the greenhouse staff for responding to our call for information. This allowed us to call the University out on their misrepresentation of the issue.  

    The University came in with their response to our economic package. It was a lowball, insulting, and was deliberately offensive to our membership and especially to the Bargaining Committee who brought forward your legitimate needs again and AGAIN. This was their attempt for “business as usual.” Your Bargaining Committee stood tall and is reviewing the package. The University is tone deaf; they proposed 80 cents/hour the first year, 60 cents for the next three years, NO COLA, NO floating holidays, keeping the third step wage tier, marginal increases in allowances, NO longevity, NO free parking, NO premium pays, NO consideration for consecutive days worked, NO vehicle allowance increases, NO shift differential increase.  

    We don’t get a record contract, yet Cornell University gets record profits: $9.6 Billion endowment (2023), 3.4 billion tuition revenue (2020-2023), $12.4million/year compensation for the top administrator, while workers...
