Government Relations Committee Meeting Reminder
You are invited to join the first two meetings of our UCHC-AAUP Government Relations Committee (GRC) via Zoom on Tuesday, November 15 at 6 p.m. and Tuesday, November 29 at 6 p.m.
In preparation for the upcoming legislative session, chapter leaders, members and staff will refine our 2023 legislative agenda through discussions with each other and our allies. During the first part of next Tuesday’s meeting, we’ll be joined by Marie Schweitzer, UConn’s Director of Government Relations. For our meeting on November 29th, we’ll be joined by Dan Livingston, chief negotiator of the State Employees Bargaining Agent Coalition (SEBAC) and our lobbyist, former CT state representative Joe Grabarz.
On October 14, UCHC-AAUP members and staff met with 8 legislators in Onyiuke Dining Room. Now that election season is over, we’re planning more meetings with legislators. Please join our new members-only Facebook group to see more photos from the October 14 meeting and to find announcements and news about upcoming meetings and other chapter activities.
Lastly, if you aren’t a member of UCHC-AAUP yet, please join now! Together we’re stronger, both at UConn and in the legislature.
Warm regards,
Laura Haynes, Ph.D., UCHC-AAUP President
Lara Shepard-Blue, UCHC-AAUP Executive Director
