""The contract still needs to be ratified by our membership, but we have successfully avoided a strike at this time," U4TL said in a statement to The Advocate."
""We are grateful to our members who kept the pressure on management and remained strike ready to achieve our top priorities, which were stronger job security and layoff protections, and cost of living adjustments.""
""Collective bargaining agreements, or CBAs, generally lay out protections for union-eligible employees. Before CBAs expire, unions and management negotiate a new contract through a process called bargaining.""
""The tentative deal marks the first full CBA bargained under the new combined union, U4TL, following the 2024 merger between Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund and the trans-led nonprofit National Center for Trans Equality.""
Advocates for Trans Equality and Union For Trans Liberation reached a tentative collective bargaining agreement after over a year of negotiations. The agreement, which still requires ratification by union members, aims to enhance job security, layoff protections, and cost of living adjustments. This marks the first full collective bargaining agreement under the newly merged union, U4TL, formed from the merger of Transgender Legal Defense and Education Fund and National Center for Trans Equality. The union was established in 2021 and previously negotiated its first agreement in March 2023.
