Greetings and Happy Labor Day!

You may remember FACMO submitted a proposed plan for faculty healthcare last Wednesday. With no response from Monmouth University administration, there is sadly no progress to report. The administration also keeps dragging its feet on verifying the figures that both save almost $2 million in healthcare costs but require premiums to increases 1.4%. To remind them, wear your FAMCO red shirt on Wednesday, September 7. Until then, IT IS LABOR DAY! And FAMCO hopes you are celebrating!

Always be kind to fellow workers, especially service workers who should be free to rest at home today. If you are donating your labor to finish preparing for classes starting tomorrow, take some time for yourself and your loved ones to rest and celebrate. Together, we can all fight for the dream of a day when everyone can work with dignity, when justice reigns, and when fear is banished because solidarity protects us all!

Remember to wear you red FAMCO shirts on this coming Wednesday, September 7! Happy Labor Day everyone!

Solidarity Forever!
