What San Francisco Educators Won on Their Strike
Over 6,000 public school educators in San Francisco went on strike last month for the first time in nearly 50 years. We spoke to three of them about what they won, including coverage of skyrocketing health care costs and easing special education workloads.

St. John’s University Says It No Longer Recognizes Faculty Unions After 56 Years
St. John's University in Queens, New York, notified employees on Feb. 19 that it will no longer recognize the two unions that have represented faculty members at the Catholic university in collective bargaining since 1970. In an internal email to faculty members, St. John's University leaders said the decision to withdraw recognition of the unions had not been made "lightly or rashly," but that it was done to secure the university's long-term future.
