Update on Contract Negotiations for Secretary of State Bargaining Units

(via Deneen Taylor, IFT Field Services Director)

Brothers and Sisters,

We wanted to remind you of our mediation/bargaining session scheduled for Friday, February 14th. We hope to be able to reach an agreement with management. To show your support of the bargaining team and to stand in unity for a fair contract, please wear BLUE on Friday. Of course, don’t forget buttons, office signs, etc. to display our solidarity.

If you can, please take a moment this week to take a selfie with a sign of support for a fair contract and send in messenger to IFPE Local 4408 to post on Facebook. Please check your e-mail for an example of a sign.

"Labor never quits. We never give up the fight – no matter how tough the odds, no matter how long it takes."—George Meany

In Solidarity,

Your IFT Local 4407 & IFPE Local 4408 Bargaining Team
