Faculty and Staff Federation of CCP
AFT 2026, the Faculty and Staff Federation of Community College of Philadelphia represents 1200 members in three bargaining units. 3 contracts: one union

- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPMinnesota shifting narrative from "rabble rousing protesters" vs "law enforcement" to "people of conscience" vs "evil regime." This is essential to defeating authoritarianism - exposing who, what & why they are by demonstrating who, what & why we are. And MAGA knows it. www.cnn.com/2026/01/23/p...
- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPI'm not one for false optimism. But what I witnessed today in Minneapolis was tremendous, both in scale and exuberance. It was a stunning answer to the federal assault on Minnesota, a show of solidarity that gives us something to hold on to during times that are unforgiving.

- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPAs tomorrow's Minnesota-wide shutdown gathers momentum, here are some of the less visible ways workers and unions are helping each other survive to fight another day, by delivering food to workers hiding in their homes with the lights off. My report from Minneapolis.
- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPA major coalition is launching a general strike in Minnesota tomorrow, aimed at pushing out ICE. It includes: -Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1005 -The MN AFL-CIO -SEIU Local 26 -UNITE HERE Local 17 -CWA Local 7250 -Saint Paul and Minneapolis Federations of Educators -Faith leaders And more. 🧵
- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPWhat an unthinkable horror to see children in ICE's custody. In what possible way does picking up preschoolers off the street make our communities safer? www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...
- Solidarity with the unions, faith organizations, community groups, and people of Minnesota who are participating in a general strike in protest of ICE attacks on their families and neighbors.

- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPI came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

- Pennsylvania is 49th in the nation for public higher education funding! Decades of disinvestment hurt the PA economy— hurt students, families, communities, and workers. It doesn’t have to be this way— and it hasn’t always been this way. We need Governor Josh Shapiro to lead the way!
- In March, in the final hours before a strike, management at Community College of Philadelphia agreed to our bargaining for the common good demand for @septaphilly.bsky.social trans passes for all CCP students. They have since failed to honor that agreement.
- Join us in our push to make management at Community College of Philadelphia honor its agreement with our union— and help all students at Philly’s college. www.aft2026.org/septa-for-cc...
- 49th in the nation is shameful @lgaustindavis.bsky.social @pasenate.com @pahousedems.com Governor Josh Shapiro AND PA Senate and House Republicans. Pennsylvania students, families, communities, and workers need and deserve more support. Disinvestment in higher education hurts the PA economy.
- Yesterday, our union was proud to join public higher ed workers across PA. Our coalition is unprecedented and growing. Community college and PASSHE, and Pitt, Temple and Penn State workers are calling on Harrisburg to fully fund public higher ed. Let’s go from the bottom 10 to the top 10.

- Philly! On Friday, Nov. 7th at 12pm Noon, join higher ed workers and students at 20th and Market to protest Senator McCormick’s co-signing of billionaire attacks on Higher Education in Pennsylvania. Despite writing a book about leadership, is nothing but a fool follower of bad actors.

We’ll call on Sen McCormick to side with workers, students & patients instead of the wealthy. w/ @aaup.org @aaup-penn.bsky.social @aft.org
- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPInstead of leading to benefit PA, Sen McCormick is in lockstep w/ Trump’s funding cuts & govt shutdown, which have real imact for PA students, faculty, staff, & researchers. And lack of state budget will make impacts even worse for our communities. w/ @rapup-uaw.bsky.social @sunrisemvmt.bsky.social
- Reposted by Faculty and Staff Federation of CCPWith a federal shutdown, no state budget in sight, and ongoing attacks on Higher Ed, we need to raise the pressure on elected leaders to stand with us as we fight to fund higher education and research across our commonwealth! w/ @fsfccp.bsky.social @phillyaflcio.bsky.social @taup4531.bsky.social

Now, she claims there's no money left for striking city workers to make a living wage. Text DC33 to 30403 to contact the Mayor's office & tell her to give AFSCME DC 33 workers a fair contract.
