Bargaining Update from May 13, 2026
Dear FSU Colleagues, Welcome to the 2026 bargaining season! We will keep you updated as negotiations continue. Our first bargaining session was held May 13.…
Dear FSU Colleagues,
I am pleased to announce that faculty voted overwhelmingly, 230-4, for the proposed modifications to our Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA). Thank you to the many of you who were able to vote in the past few days.
Implementation of the new salary terms is expected to follow this schedule:

We need you NOW! Collective bargaining is the primary way that our faculty union gives voice to FSU faculty. Laws passed and signed this spring threaten to curtail that voice. The new laws include a requirement that at least 60% of faculty must be dues-paying members for our union to retain its representation rights, as well as a ban on payroll dues deduction. Membership is now available by signing up for direct debit of dues at: https://uff-fsu.org/get-involved/join/
If you are not already a member, please join NOW. If you are a member but have not yet signed up for direct debit, please contact our Membership Committee for assistance in making the switch (email us at uff.fsu.membership@gmail.com)
Best regards,
Jack Fiorito, Vice President
UFF-FSU Chapter
