Momodou Taal, a member of UE Local 300-Cornell Graduate Students United, was suspended by Cornell University without due process in retaliation for peaceful protest activities on campus. As a graduate worker, being suspended means that he loses his job, and as an international student, he is facing the threat of deportation.
Local 300-CGSU and Cornell have an active Memorandum of Agreement which obligates the university to bargain over the effects of this suspension. However, Cornell is refusing to meet with the union. UE Local 300 has started a petition, which you can sign here.
