Mail your PERC ballots back to PERC, UF faculty. The deadline is early next week so mail TODAY. Why does this matter & what can we do about it?

PERC mailed to your home address.

🚨 Action needed, UF faculty! Look for a ballot from Public Employees Relations Commission. DO NOT ignore. Open, vote YES to keep all eligible UF faculty’s in-unit collective bargaining agreement & preserve the faculty union. Add a postage STAMP & mail back. See 👇 for why.

When you receive the PERC ballot above, 1) Open it! 2) You must vote YES to retain the right to have UFF represent UF faculty. No majority vote, No UFF. 3) add a stamp (lack of free return postage is a sad tactic to disincentivize voting!) 4)and mail this ballot back ASAP! Thank you! Share!

The ballot will ask whether UF Faculty should keep our union and our collective bargaining rights. We urge you to vote YES. Turnout is critical. We don’t just need a majority of votes, we need a large majority of eligible FACULTY to vote YES.

We did this before with 80% of faculty voting yes (regardless if they became members.) Let’s do it again.

#UFF-UF folks … get ready! ⛰️ ✊🏽 Anti-union SB256 (passed in 2023) requires most FL public sector unions to recertify annually when chapter membership is below 60% 😩 Before this vote 🗳️ kicks off, you can help by ensuring that your home address is correct in my.ufl.edu #unions #advocacy #highered
