Instead of leading to benefit PA, Sen McCormick is in lockstep w/ Trump’s funding cuts & govt shutdown, which have real imact for PA students, faculty, staff, & researchers. And lack of state budget will make impacts even worse for our communities.

Crystal Carey is not unknown to our #UArtsUnion… she was on the (losing!) team of @morganlewislaw.bsky.social lawyers hired by UArts admin to drag out negotiations on the UArts faculty contract for THREE years - a contract we won by calling for a strike vote.

AFSCME and AFGE assert that Trump illegally exceeded his authority by unilaterally trying to roll back a regulation that protects civil servants.

This morning, we learned that President Trump fired Board Member Gwynne Wilcox, whose Senate-confirmed term runs until 2028.

This move must be called out for what it is—a frontal assault on the NLRB, its employees, workers, and the very idea of an independent civil service. 🚨
