Union members protested during an event featuring UC President James B. Milliken at the nation’s oldest public forum in San Francisco on Thursday night. Outside the event, about 70 protesters from American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Local 3299, or AFSCME 3299, picketed and called for the UC to reach a contract agreement that would provide them with affordable housing and a living wage. AFSCME 3299 represents approximately 40,000 service, patient and skilled craft workers in the UC system. Four protesters — a UC Berkeley student, AFSCME 3299 executive board members Naomi Nakamura and Carmen Lee, and Debra Grabelle, executive director of International Federation of Professional and Technical Engineers Local 21 — were escorted outside after interrupting the beginning of the event by giving statements inside the auditorium.
