Hosted by Ricky Baldwin

Contact: 217-328-3037

Event Description:
Building and Food Service workers at UI are low-wage workers fighting
for a fair contract at a university that has just handed out fat
raises and bonuses to top administrators, raised tuition 9.5% last
year and 6.9% this year. The workers have taken a strike vote. They
are picketing negotiations Monday and Tuesday morning in a last-ditch
effort to reach an agreement before walking off the job. Please join
in this show of solidarity.

Join local unions, workers, students and community members as we
