Local 1000 Veterans Committee Shows Appreciation to Those Who Serve
May is Military Appreciation Month, an opportunity to express gratitude to the current and past members of our Armed Services—and their families—who defend the interests and security of our nation every hour and every day of the year.
Our Local 1000 Veterans Committee is committed to being a strong advocate for our represented employees who came to state service after their military service. In essence, they’re in a second career where they work to serve all Californians.
Join Us on June 8 in Sacramento at the Rally for a Living Wage!
We care for Californians every day, but too many of us can’t care for ourselves. We need to show the Governor and Legislature that we’re committed to ensuring every state worker makes a living wage. It’s going to take strength in numbers to win the raises we need to support our families.
That’s why we need you to join our March to the Governor’s Mansion to demand our state invests in working people! You don’t have to be a member to join our march.
Let’s demonstrate our strength and our demand for dignity!
Two SoCal DMV Offices Reach 100% Union Membership
Workers at two DMV offices in Southern California are stepping up to make a stronger union in a big way: 100% union membership!
Just over 70 DMV workers in Long Beach and Torrance have come together to make a difference in their working conditions and to stand together for a contract that we can all be proud of.
We Remember, Honor Local 1000 Member Latreece Smith
At SEIU Local 1000, we believe in celebrating our members and the contributions you make to make our Union what it is. In that spirit, we would like to recognize the legacy left by our sister Latreece Smith, who passed away recently.
Latreece was a long-time job steward, member, and activist at DLC 781, CalPERS. She held various roles in union leadership such as DLC President, Vice President/Chief Steward, and African-American Committee Chair.
