Here is what's outlined in our Tentative Agreement with the State:

Voting closed 5pm, October 29th.

What's next?

Now that the Tentative Agreement has been ratified, we need to secure funding for step raises through the State Legislature. The contract isn’t worth the paper it’s written on if the State Legislature votes against funding. There's also ways you can help within your workplace! Union Stewards enforce the Partnership Agreement and educate their coworkers about their union. Make your workplace stronger today!
