Similar to the GWC-UAW’s strike after two years of unsuccessful bargaining, the GSOC-UAW’s announcement follows the union’s nine months of bargaining with New York University. The GSOC-UAW claims that the university administration has refused to concede to many of its demands, including higher wages, expanded healthcare coverage, removal of the New York Police Department from NYU’s campus, and further protections for immigrant and international students. The union’s proposals follow months of membership phone banking, surveys, and town halls.
