Hofstra's American Association of University Professors (AUUP) faculty are currently in a struggle with university administration for a fair contract. They have asked for support in the form of sign ons to the attached community support letter, which gives some examples of how university administration has disrespected its faculty.

Higher learning institutions have been one of many under assault by the current administration. Hofstra's Center for the Study of Labor and Democracy, and its Labor Studies program, has been an amazing partner of LIJWJ for multiple campaigns over the years. They remain a steadfast voice for Long Island's workers, creating a platform for the workers' movement and conducting research on our region's labor conditions. Please support the Labor Studies and rest of Hofstra's AUUP faculty by signing on to the letter!

To sign on to the letter, simply message us saying you'd like your name added and the organization or congregation you represent, if applicable.

Working so closely with Long Island's faith communities, LIJWJ gets to know many amazing organizations and individuals. We hope you'll join us to honor one of them who has been front and center resisting authoritarianism and standing up for justice - Bend the Arc!

"Founded in 2012, Bend the Arc is a multiracial, multiethnic, intergenerational movement of Jews, organizing for a just and equitable United States where all people — within and beyond our Jewish community — are free and thriving. Bend the Arc has been the only national Jewish organization focused exclusively on progressive social change in the United States. Jews across the country must be part of the 3.5% of sustained resistance that we need to defeat authoritarianism. We grow the Jewish resistance through mass mobilizations, political education, and organizing arm-in-arm with our partners.

Our Long Island chapter was formed in 2016 and works in coalition with partners to pass legislation for immigrant justice, parole justice and more. We work on political campaigns, partnering with candidates and organizations to get out the vote, to elect candidates who share our values and to call out bad actors and hold them accountable. We lobby Federal and state legislators, participating in days of action, running political education workshops and much, much more!"

Please join us for an energizing, movement-strengthening, and worker-centered evening on Tuesday July 14th at Captain Bill's in Bay Shore! Reserve your tickets here - https://givebutter.com/2025-lijwj-awards-dinner-copy-r7uibi

Please read this request for community support from our friends at NYSNA and sign the petition! Use this link: https://act.nysna.org/page/98537/petition/

"Nurses at Catholic Health/ St. Charles, St. Joseph and St. Catherine of Siena hospitals are united for safe, quality care for our communities. We have deep roots in our Long Island communities. Many nurses were born in the hospitals where we work, had our children here, bring our loved ones here for care, and care for patients over the course of their entire lives.

Right now, we are fighting for fair union contracts that include safe staffing, as well as protections from workplace violence and fair wages. We are fighting for conditions to protect nurses and our patients and ensure there are always enough nurses to care for our communities.

We are a community that advocates for and supports each other, our hospitals, and our patients. Please show your support by signing our petition urging hospital administrators to protect care at Catholic Health and deliver fair contracts!"
