SEIU Delegates Deadline Reminder:
*Today* 5 p.m. Feb. 28

CSUEU members will be electing delegates to the SEIU’s International Convention to be held May 20 - 22, 2024, in Philadelphia, PA.

2024 Primary Election
Vote by March 5 

Together, we've stood up against greedy corporations, achieving significant milestones. However, the control of the California Legislature hangs in the balance with 50 open and competitive legislative seats. It's imperative that we prevent candidates funded by big corporations from winning these elections. See CSUEU endorsements.

Remember, our vote is our voice - a voice for working families. By voting and volunteering for champions who prioritize our interests, we can ensure a better future for all. Pledge to vote this election here!

Retroactive Pay Is Coming 

The latest update from the State Controller's Office is they will process CSUEU members' retroactive pay increase on the night of February 27. The retroactive check will process within a couple of days. Since the update will not occur until the latter half of the month, employees’ new pay rate will appear on the March pay check, issued on April 1. 

Our contract with the CSU includes a 5% a salary increase for 2023/2024 - retroactive to July 2023 and another 5% increase in 2024/2025 which will take effect July 1 this year. More information about our contract here.

This action comes as 7.5 million borrowers are now enrolled in SAVE, 4.3 million of whom have a $0 monthly payment. More information is contained in the White House fact sheet.
