Historic win in Maryland yesterday!
We are in Annapolis today for the historic signing of our collective bargaining bill by @govwesmoore.bsky.social & @senbillferg.bsky.social!
When we organize together, we win!
And we roll deep w/ @aaup.org @aft.org @afthighered.bsky.social @aftmaryland.bsky.social @local6741.bsky.social!
Hands down, one of the most exciting moments of my life.
This is a HUGE step forward for academic labor in MD and in the U.S.
Yesterday was a true game changer for thousands of educators in Maryland. 9,000 workers in higher education will have a voice at the table to shape the colleges & universities students & staff deserve! bsky.app/profile/uam-...
Inaction from rank-and-file workers enabled government censorship during the Red Scares.
Joining the AAUP says that you’re concerned about academic freedom, and about the way that basic freedom protects your teaching and research. Join today.

NEW today in the New York Times:
In the face of unprecedented authoritarian attacks, the AAUP is building a powerful and militant resistance movement in defense of American higher education, the freedom to learn, and our democracy.
Join Us!
Starting off the week with a union victory! ✊
AFT President @rweingarten.bsky.social & @aftmaryland.bsky.social President Kenya Campbell are in MD to watch as Governor Moore signs a new law granting 9,000 workers collective bargaining rights. Thank you to everyone who helped us in this fight.
