Bargaining Update: Take the Pledge & get ready!
We are expressing our commitment to stand up and fight for a
strong contract by taking a pledge to participate in all Local
1000
authorized actions.
Contract negotiations came to a halt when state negotiators made
their position clear: Even in a time of budget
surpluses – and California being the sixth largest economy in the
world – they will not make a real, meaningful investment in the
people who make California a great place to live.
The message we delivered at town halls was also clear: The state’s offer simply does not value our work or the sacrifices we’ve made. And we’re ready and willing to let them know they must do better.
Your participation makes all the difference. Take the pledge as we gear up for our next actions. Together we are unstoppable.
