The CSU Employees Union chapter at San Francisco State University rallied on Thursday in support of their bargaining team who began negotiations with the CSU administration for new contracts.

Just under 100 people gathered at Don Nasser Family Plaza in solidarity with the union for their first day of negotiations with the California State University at CSU Northridge. The union is demanding a pay raise, ensured job security, better working conditions and expanded benefits for their employees as well as a petition for language translations to improve contract accessibility. Their current contracts will expire in June.

Matt Itelson, organizing chair for the SFSU’s chapter of the CSU employee union, is one of the employees leading the rally. Itelson said that the union is seeking demands that will make conditions better for the state’s employees as California’s cost of living increases. 

“People have been underpaid for decades on purpose, and we need to have the CSU administration recognize the funding that we’ve already received for the steps implementation,” Itelson said.
