Organizing Victory! Research Assistants Join CWA Local 1104

Last week, Research Assistants across all departments and disciplines at the State University of New York at Buffalo voted overwhelmingly YES to join the CWA Local 1104 by 99%. The organizing victory came as a result of several months of hard work by the Organizing Committee to talk with colleagues and build solidarity, and follows after Research Assistants at SUNY Albany and SUNY Binghamton voted to join CWA over the past year.

The nearly 600 RAs join the roughly 1,400 Research Assistants and 4,700 Teaching and Graduate Assistants who have unionized with CWA Local 1104 across the SUNY system.
