CAPS- UAW
Stand with Scientists
Sign the Photo Petition
Let the Governor and his Administration know that our membership stands united in demanding a fair contract that ends the gender pay gap NOW! Take 30 seconds to add yourself to our photo petition! Hundreds of your fellow State Scientists have already signed on! Once a majority of rank-and-file scientists sign on to the photo petition, your Contract Action Team (CAT) will publish it and show this administration what collective power looks like! Our power is in our participation, so please take action today!
Membership Meeting: July 24, 2024
Our contract fight is truly in the hands of you and your colleagues. The membership is the highest authority of the union. With this in mind, your CAPS-UAW Bargaining Committee has requested YOU to attend a Membership Meeting this coming Wednesday July 24, 2024, between 6-7 pm to deliberate and discuss our next move(s) at the bargaining table.
You and your colleagues will participate in a straw poll to determine the future direction of our contract fight. Only members attending will be able to participate in the straw poll. It is critical members attend the meeting in-person to demonstrate solidarity with your fellow scientists and to show our power to the State. A virtual option will be provided, though in-person attendance is strongly encouraged. Here is a continuously updated list of in-person meeting locations.
Only dues-paying CAPS-UAW members may attend. To become a member of your union, sign up here.
