CFU Membership, Dues, and V-CAP Form

CFU-UAW Membership and Dues Check-off Form

Membership in Contract Faculty United-UAW (CFU-UAW) makes our faculty voice stronger and more democratic. Consistent majority support and participation enabled us to negotiate new rights and improvements in our first contract and will enable us to enforce these rights and seek further improvements moving forward. Union members have the right to attend Union meetings, run for and hold Union office, vote to elect Union officers, and otherwise participate in the governance of our Union. Membership dues are currently 1.44% of gross pay with a one-time, $50 initiation fee.

Voluntary Contributions to the UAW Voluntary Community Action Program (V-CAP)

Through voluntary contributions to the UAW Voluntary Community Action Program (V-CAP), we help elect pro-worker and pro-education candidates who can influence state and federal decisions on key issues, like workers rights, immigration laws, research funding, etc., which impact our daily lives at NYU. If you are eligible to vote in U.S. elections, please contribute! (Those who contribute monthly will receive UAW merchandise. See here for more information.)
