Strike Preparedness
On April 26, 2010 your elected leadership unanimously adopted an agenda item to put to a Membership vote the establishment, funding and benefit level of a new Strike Fund.
The vote asks if you endorse building a Strike Fund with a temporary
$3.75 monthly dues increase, in place only until a new Collective Bargaining Agreement is ratified. Ballot approval requires a two-thirds majority of valid votes cast. So, the decision is yours. The vote will open on May 24th and close on July 6th at 1600 Central Time.
We encourage you to review all of the information about our Strike Fund, and ask yourself, "What are you willing to do to get the Contract you want and need?"
