Please Contribute to UAA Faculty and Staff Association

Dear colleagues,

Your contribution to the UAA Faculty and Staff Association is needed for our advocacy efforts for the 2024 legislative session, the August primary and the November general election.

Our top priority is the university's budget as well as increased funding for building repair, renovation, and maintenance. We seek adequate, predictable funding for higher education and for student scholarships.

The UAA Faculty and Staff Association meets with legislators, candidates, members of the Board of Regents, and university officials to make the case for improved facilities and better funding.

About the Association

The UAA Faculty and Staff Association:

• tracks legislation of interest to the University of Alaska
• assesses the performance of the Anchorage area legislators
• makes campaign contributions to candidates who support UAA
• supports advocacy campaigns on behalf of UA

Established in 1971, the UAA Faculty and Staff Association is a voluntary organization operating outside the formal structure of the university as a registered political action committee (PAC). Our primary purpose is to engage in political advocacy supporting the growth and development of UAA.

In the past we have supported efforts to increase funding for WWAMI, secure stable funding for student scholarships, increase funding for building maintenance, reauthorize vocational/technical funding, and solve UA's land grant deficit.

Please help us as we work for the advancement of UAA by sending in your contribution now. Your contribution will be used to support political campaigns and to keep our website online. We cannot do it without your backing! It is your contribution that keeps the association active.
