One if the reasons I am proud to organize with @UAW5810 is the opportunity to meet postdocs and scientists with amazing stories like Suresh's, and being able to stand in solidarity with them as they pursue their research dreams. We demand 2 month extension NOW. @UCSDHealth @UCSD

We urge fellow labor unionists and our UAW siblings to take up this cause by fighting, with all means at our disposal, for an immediate ceasefire and an end to US funding of the Israeli apartheid regime.
