• Compensation (contract proposals that include a fair wage, regular wage increases, and protections from pay cuts or from cutting financial aid in response to higher pay)
• Health care for non-PhD student workers (financial support to offset the costs of Student Health Insurance Plan and Student Health Fee)
• Improvements to healthcare coverage (access to mental health resources, adequate specialist visits)
• Paid Family and Medical Leave
• Dental care
• Dependent healthcare (provisions that offset the cost of healthcare for partners and dependents)

Note: child care subsidies and workload protections are still unresolved, but the parties are relatively close to reaching an agreement.
