In a letter to East West Chancellor M. Wasiullah Khan and Provost Madhu Jain, AFT President Randi Weingarten called on the university administration to "cease its intimidation practices immediately and work responsibly through the law to permit a democratic union election to go forward." 

The letter follows a special order of business passed unanimously by the delegates of the 81^st AFT Convention which denounced the university administration's actions.  In the letter, President Weingarten reiterates those concerns and asserts that:

Dismissing these faculty members from future appointments and requiring each faculty member seeking re-employment to submit to a one-on-one interview with the Chancellor can be seen as nothing short of retribution for organizing a union and intimidation of individual faculty members in an effort to stop the union election.

East-West spokespeople have suggested these actions have nothing to do with the union activity when speaking to the press.  While such claims are hard to believe, President Weingarten suggests that if the administration is:

sincere that these efforts are not attempts to stop adjunct faculty members at East-West from exercising their democratic right to a union election, we call on you to take a neutral position on the election and publicly state that the East-West administration will do nothing to interfere with the election.
