(Los Angeles, CA) -- Thousands of researchers and student employees at all ten University of California campuses are planning to go on strike this morning in an effort to secure improved pay and working conditions.
UC officials are in contract negotiations with the United Auto Workers regarding four separate academic bargaining units: postdoctoral scholars, academic researchers, academic student employees and graduate student researchers.
Nearly 98-percent of the members voted to approve the strike authorization.
