NFA members join St. Mary’s nurses on the picket line on a snowy and cold day in Reno to demand a fair contract.

Trump deleted his racist post. It may be gone. But it’s not forgotten. In this day and age, it is all the more important that we continue to stand up for the humanity, dignity, and respect of everyone. Trump’s actions demonstrate the continued need for effort. I’ll keep fighting.
Governor Spanberger’s overhaul of University of Virginia's Board of Visitors reasserts institutional autonomy & directly challenges Trump’s orchestrated DEI crackdown at top-tier universities.
This is the way.

BREAKING: the AAUP and @democracydefendersfund.org filed a federal lawsuit challenging the Trump admin's “Gold Card” visa program, which unlawfully sells US residency to wealthy individuals while pushing aside scientists, researchers, engineers, and other outstanding professionals.

If pressure builds, they will throw someone over board as the “bad guy” but don’t forget that absolutely no one is resigning from ICE or Border Patrol right now.
Alex Pretti, we love you. You are us. We are you. 🩷 Thank you for showing up, we are now showing up for you. You are forever in our hearts, a hero amongst men, and we will fight the good fight in your name. #alexpretti
Show up TONIGHT for Alex Pretti in Reno and please share this far and wide.
Don’t be quiet and complicit. We need Democrats, Libertarians, Republicans, and non-party Nevadans to show up and say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. F*ck ICE.

Here’s some of my friends from the @nvfa.bsky.social UNR and TMCC chapters. Proud to march with them and represent @aaup.org and @aft.org in Nevada!
Nevada faculty are grateful for all the solidarity today. Showing up meant the Regents moved up the agenda item. Our collective advocacy meant the Regents postponed changing collective bargaining policy changes and requesting more faculty input in future process on changes!
The Nevada Faculty Alliance thanks #NSHE Regents who spoke up and demanded that faculty and NFA be brought to the table for an open, transparent process for any policy changes to our collective bargaining process.
The Nevada Faculty Alliance is grateful to all who showed up to give public comment and to highlight how the policy changes for collective bargaining hamper the process, cause confusion, and take away from education! Solidarity wins the day!
Thanks to solidarity from @aft.org and @aflcio.org, the #NSHE Board of Regents did NOT change the collective bargaining policy. Faculty negotiating contracts now will continue to do so under the current rules! #WhenWeFightWeWin!
We're here with the Nevada Faculty Alliance to support the fight to preserve union rights and shared governance for Nevada's higher-ed workers. Solidarity! @nvfa.bsky.social @aft.org @afthighered.bsky.social @aaup.org @thenvindy.com
Tomorrow is the day! We're ready to show up to support #HigherEd collective bargaining for faculty at #NSHE. Join us as we gather before public comment at 9 am at the Board of Regents meeting!
Op-ed by Nevada State University faculty on the upcoming proposed changes to collective bargaining at #NSHE @thenvindy.com

Four #NSHE institutions are in the middle of collective bargaining negotiations. This Friday, the Board of Regents looks to change the policy: thenevadaindependent.com/article/opin...
NFA has been attempting to get our right to collectively bargain in state law for the past 8 years (#AB191 #NVLeg). Having only an internal #NSHE process means our management makes the rules and can change the rules--even in the middle of contract negotiations.
#CallToAction: Submit public comment and tell #NSHE Board of Regents to oppose changes to Title 4, Chapter 4. Faculty are negotiating new collective bargaining contracts now. Don't change the rules mid-negotiations: nshe.nevada.edu/regents/publ...
The #NSHE Board of Regents opposed having faculty collective bargaining rights in state law with #AB191 at the #NVLeg. Now they want to change their own internal limited bargaining process for faculty: www.nevadafacultyalliance.org/NewsArchive/...
Faculty are negotiating NOW. Oppose the changes.
