About 1,100 Teamsters are preparing to strike Feb. 17-20 at 22 California State University campuses. Gavin Newsom’s request earlier this month for an additional $366 million in ongoing funding for the Cal State system. The union claims that CSU balked on paying contractually obligated raises and step increases for its Teamsters workers. Cal State refutes the account offered by the Teamsters. Cal State wanted to use the money to offer one-time bonuses for employees rather than lock-in with ongoing salary increases.
