Hi UMPSA members,

Good news! The vote among your fellow UMPSA union members to ratify the 2024-2027 Contract has concluded and it overwhelmingly passed: 98% Yes, 2% No, with 72% of all eligible UMPSA members voting.

Thank you for your support!

The next step is for the contract to be approved by the UMaine System Board of Trustees. The UMS Negotiating Team has kept the Chancellor’s top staff apprised of our negotiations, so what’s in the contract should come as no surprise to the Board and we expect it to be approved.

We will let you know as soon as we know the Trustees’ decision. Stay tuned.

In Solidarity,

Neil Greenberg, Co-Chief Negotiator, UMPSA President
Tom Donaghue, Co-Chief Negotiator, UMPSA Vice President
Sara Abronze, Negotiation Secretary
Emily Meier, MEA Uniserv Director
