URA President Christine O’Connell represented our local on Tuesday, May 5 in Trenton at the Senate Budget Hearing to call to restore funding for Rutgers University in the FY27 state budget. We work with university management including President Tate shown here, other Rutgers unions in this photo include Rutgers RAFU and CWA 1031.
Rutgers Government Relations staff are URA members too. Axel Esquivel (far left) is a member and the photo was taken by URA member Sheaa Amin.
Stand up for state funding of the vital roles URA members fill across New Jersey. Sign letter @ https://ura-aft.org/gov-sherrill-restore-rutgers-funding/ to advocate against cuts to Rutgers programs in this year’s budget.
