California State University Unit 6, which represents 1,100 skilled trades workers, is preparing for an Unfair Labor Practice strike against the university for alleged unpaid contractual raises<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n Picket lines and rallies will take place from Feb. 17-20 across the 22 CSU campuses, including SDSU, and the Chancellor\u2019s Office. The union warns<\/a> that all campus construction and deliveries will be halted, and advises the public to avoid campuses during the strike.<\/p>\n The strike, authorized by the Teamsters Bargaining Team, has been in the works since CSU Unit 6 voted for it<\/a> in December. The union alleges that the CSU and Chancellor Mildred Garcia denied skilled trades workers their July 2025 contractual and seniority-based raises, citing federal budget cuts<\/a> as the reason.<\/p>\n However, union leaders reported<\/a> that the CSU received a zero-interest loan<\/a> from the state to bridge those funding gaps. The union also alleged that the CSU has failed to bargain in good faith, alleging \u201clowball\u201d offers and disrespect.\u00a0<\/p>\n These offers, union leaders say, come just weeks after the CSU Board of Trustees overturned<\/a> the presidential salary increase cap and raised the salaries of 13 university presidents, including SDSU President Adela de la Torre.\u00a0<\/p>\n
