Last Friday, ASUC election tabulations revealed that the GA Fee had failed, a reality that the GA is all too familiar with.

In the 2021 ASUC elections, graduate students voted on a fee proposed by the Graduate Assembly, or GA, which did not pass due to low voter turnout.

Three of the four referenda passed during the 2021 ASUC elections, affecting graduate and undergraduate students alike.

Delegates of the Graduate Assembly, or GA, unanimously passed a resolution on Thursday to support restructuring its relationship with the ASUC, from which the assembly has sought independence for several years.

A fee referendum for UC Berkeley graduate students that would update an existing Graduate Assembly, or GA, fee is set to appear on the 2021 ASUC election ballot.

The ASUC Elections Council held its annual mandatory elections meeting Tuesday where candidates for ASUC elected positions and proponents of referendums were briefed on election policies.

During its meeting Wednesday, the ASUC discussed the Graduate Assembly, or GA, push for independence, the ongoing struggles international students face from remote learning and the rise in xenophobia.

The campus Graduate Assembly met Thursday to discuss graduate student diversity, support during the COVID-19 pandemic and gender-neutral restrooms in the Martin Luther King Jr. Student Union.

UC Berkeley's Graduate Assembly members will vote on whether or not to pass a resolution to formally add an “independence proposition” to the 2020 ballot.
