This post came via the Oregon AFL-CIO:

The Graduate Teaching Fellows Federation at the University of Oregon have declared their intent to strike on January 17 if a fair contract is not reached. Last year, we saw a wave of strikes sweep across the Pacific Northwest and nationally. Everywhere workers picketed, unions and workers stepped up in solidarity to support the workers on strike.

The GTFF strike in Eugene is no exception, and it’s time for Oregon Labor to come together and help these hard working graduate employees win a fair contract. Without the labor of GTFF members, the University of Oregon simply cannot function effectively. By supporting GTFF, we can help send a message that the community in Eugene and across the state stands behind graduate employees.

Make sure you’re checking the GTFF website and following them on Facebook and Twitter/X for the latest news about the strike.
