UNIVERSITY CAUCUS – Legislative Goals 2023-24

As voted on by caucus delegates to the 2023 TSEU General Assembly. These goals will carry us through our next General Assembly in 2024.

  • Increase state funding of each university/health science center to ensure quality public higher education for all Texans, create greater equity across the state, and preserve university jobs and services
  • All university/health science center employees to be included in across-the-board pay raises that state agency workers receive
  • Provide full healthcare, including gender-affirming care and reproductive care, for all university/health science center employees working 50% or more, and expand Medicaid to protect part-time workers
  • Proactively support legislation that will expand safeguards for academic freedom for all faculty, staff and students at State Universities while defending against legislative attempts to suppress academic freedom – including punishments imposed on faculty such as loss of tenure
