A University of Michigan graduate employees union wants to see the campus police abolished and a fund set up to provide for abortions and transgender drugs and surgeries.
The demands are part of the process of drafting a new three-year labor contract before the current one expires on April 30.
The Graduate Employees’ Organization however has lost so far in its demand to replace the campus police department with a “community-led, non-police, unarmed emergency response” program. University officials also rejected the proposal to bar federal immigration authorities from entering campus to carry out warrants.
