AFT 2121 endorsements for CCSF Trustee
Thank-you to the many AFT 2121 members who participated in our endorsement process! This endorsement was our first-ever that included both “in-person” votes at COPE meetings as well as electronic voting. We learned a lot about how to expand participation in our COPE decisions.
We have endorsed two new candidates: Aliya Chisti and Han Zou. They join our previously endorsed candidates Anita Martinez and Alan Wong. You will be hearing much more from them as their campaigns progress.
Though we voted not to endorsed any incumbents we give respect to all who asked for our endorsement during these extremely distressing times at our college.

Call on Mayor Breed and SF Supes to establish the Workforce Education Recovery Fund for CCSF
Our ability to maintain our programs, including the vital training our City’s residents need to get back to work in the wake of COVID-19, is in serious jeopardy. And the scarcity brought on by COVID-19 means that now, more than ever, we need to fight to ensure that our City College has adequate funding to help with the economic recovery of San Francisco and to continue to serve the marginalized communities in our City. But, in order to make WERF real we need the support of San Francisco Supervisors and Mayor Breed! Now is the time to push. Call on Mayor Breed and the SF Board of Supervisors to establish the Workforce Education Recovery Fund to protect essential services provided at City College.
