(Mon. 4/27) Cancel the rent: Town-hall with Gov. Newsom

On Tuesday AFT 2121 Delegates voted to endorse efforts by statewide housing justice groups who have invited Gov. Newsom to participate in a Keep Families Housed and Debt Free! Town Hall to hear directly from tenants and homeowners who are struggling to make ends meet.

The town hall is scheduled for NOON on Monday, April 27. Please RSVP to Brad Hirn at brad@hrcsf.org (773-892-8844) to get a registration link.

Under the Governor’s leadership, Californians have flattened the curve of coronavirus infection rates. We have followed the various public health directives, sheltered-in-place and sacrificed our livelihoods as our places of work were forced to close in order to stop the spread of the virus.

Now tenants and homeowners across the state are feeling the economic devastation and are clamoring not only for relief, but leadership and vision commensurate with the challenge. Families should not have to worry about losing their homes once the state of emergency is over or be saddled for years with debts acquired through no fault of their own. Join communities across the state to demand a statewide cancellation of rents and mortgages.


(Tues. 4/28, 11am) “What is the Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee?” With CCSF Bond Oversight Committee Member AJ Thomas

On Tues. 4/28 at 11am AFT 2121 invites you to attend a teach-in on the Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee.

This Committee is responsible for reviewing expenditures related to the District’s Bond expenditures. The Committee meets four times a year. Members have the opportunity to tour recently completed projects and project sites in construction. Committee members receive information and updates on bond-funded projects in progress throughout the District. The Committee produces an Annual Report to the Community, providing information about the District’s bond-funded projects and conformance of financial expenditures with the voter-approved ballot measures.

AJ Thomas is a new Committee member and the Chapter President of  IFPTE Local 21, AFL-CIO. He will explain what is ahead for the Committee and answer questions.

This is an informational-only event for the purpose of the education of AFT 2121 members to the work of an important CCSF Committee. No policy decisions or votes will be made.

(By Wed. 4/29) Survey: Students’ Needs in Times of COVID-19  

AFT 2121 is collaborating with SF Rising and SF United in Crisis to assess how college students are adjusting to the changes necessary under Shelter-In-Place so that we can better help them. We know many students may have logistical challenges with respect to food and shelter, and may also be having challenges in the transition to remote learning.

Please ask your students to take the survey.
