We'll be holding our General Membership Meeting ‼️THIS THURSDAY‼️ FROM 5:00-7:05pm PST. We're excited to see you all there!

The GTFF vehemently condemns the acts of insurrect

The GTFF vehemently condemns the acts of insurrection and violent white supremacy displayed last Wednesday in the U.S. Capitol and more locally this weekend across the state of Oregon. Black, Indigenous, People of Color, and Jewish people disproportionately experience white supremacist violence -- at the hands of individuals and through the discipline of the state -- and our deepest concerns lie in their safety and well-being during this current political unrest. Resistance against the organized white supremacist violence we saw this week means using our collective power as workers and educators. We invite all members to attend the Direct Action Team meeting today at 6:30pm PST, during which there will be time for rank-and-file members to suggest different ways to center any direct action or organizing efforts around this goal.

The Graduate Teaching Fellows Federation expressly

The Graduate Teaching Fellows Federation expressly condemns the Eugene Police Department for shooting a community member on November 30, 2020. We call on Chief Skinner to begin disarmament of the EPD at once, beginning with the immediate removal of all lethal weapons. We additionally call upon City Manager Sarah Medary, Mayor Lucy Vinis, and all City Councilors to expressly and unequivocally condemn police violence and the use of excessive force.

The results are in! With 42% of membership voting

The results are in! With 42% of membership voting and 85% voting yes, we have collectively approved a Letter of Agreement (LOA) with the University that grants funding extensions for those at the end of their departmental funding and extends the life of our current contract through Spring 2023. The LOA also includes provisions and accommodations to ensure GE workplace safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. Find the full text of the LOA at the link in our bio.

Questions? Email grievances@gtff.net. The Grievance Committee and Impact Bargaining team will be hosting a workshop to share information on this agreement in the winter term.

All GTFF members should have received a ballot in

All GTFF members should have received a ballot in your email. If you haven’t please fill out the ballot request form in our bio! The vote will be open until 11:59pm PST Wednesday, November 25.

Have questions or thoughts about the vote? You can read and submit to our living voters guide at the link in our bio. Teresa from the negotiating team will also hold office hours for questions on the GTFF zoom Tuesday 11am-12pm PST and Wednesday 3-4pm PST.

We’ll be holding a town hall at http://bit.ly/IB

We’ll be holding a town hall at http://bit.ly/IBtownhall this evening from 5:30-7:00pm PST to discuss the university's proposal for an extension of our contract and extensions of funding. Because extending the contract is outside the purview of impact bargaining, we will need to vote as an entire membership whether to accept this part of the proposal. Please look out for an email this evening inviting you to vote. Let's figure out what's best, together.
