On Nov 29th, we join together with graduate students nationwide to oppose the GOP tax plan. The tax plan targets higher education by taxing tuition waivers as income, drastically increasing the amount we pay in taxes and locking out continuing and future grads who can’t afford the cost.

At 12pm on Wednesday 11/29, join together with grads, undergrads, faculty, staff, and community members at Sproul Steps. Bring a sign, bring a friend, and come ready to make some noise!

Starting at 10 am gather at Anthony Hall to make signs, have breakfast, and perform outreach about the bill. Walkout at 12 pm to gather at Sproul Plaza for a rally and speak out against the bill.

This action is co-sponsored by: The UC Student-Workers Union (UAW 2865), The UC Postdoctoral Researchers Union (UAW 5810), the Graduate Assembly (GA), International Socialist Organization (ISO), UC AFT, Electrical Engineering Graduate Student Association (EEGSA), BERC Action, and the Berkeley Faculty Association (BFA).
