The UUP Veterans Committee membership has 12 members that served in the military and are currently employed at a campus in an academic or professional capacity. The committee’s mission is to keep veterans informed of their rights with hiring protocol, support union members returning from the Middle East, and find out concerns and problems that are facing our veterans working in the SUNY system.

The most current goal we have is to find out what campuses have union members serving in the Middle East and make sure they receive the support they need to return to work after coming back from conflict.

COMMITTEE CHARGE

"To submit a written report to the President identifying problems faced by veterans of foreign wars, that UUP might address through legislation and the collective bargaining process."
