📣 Board of Commissioners Meeting 9/16: Pack the room!

Local Government (City, County, School District)

Marion County workers have overwhelmingly voted to authorize a strike, and now we need to make sure the Board of Commissioners understands exactly what that means for Marion County.

We need workers and our allies to show up and fill the room. We want to send a message that paints a clear picture of the impact a strike will have on County services and our communities. This is about showing the Commissioners that we are united, organized, and ready to stand together for a fair contract. Bring your coworkers, wear your MCEA gear, and let’s pack the room!

Stay in the loop for critical bargaining updates

Don’t miss critical updates during a fast-moving campaign. Make sure you are opted in for texts and emails at your personal (not just work) email. If the County shuts down access to work email during a strike, make sure you aren’t left out of time-sensitive communications.

Strike benefits

Only union members are eligible to receive strike benefits. Join SEIU 503 today to ensure you will be eligible.

Expect to hear from members and organizers over the next few weeks with more information and to engage you in the campaign. Review the FAQ on our website and reach out to your organizer if you have any questions. You can find all strike-related news, tools, and information on the Marion County Bargaining page on our website.

In solidarity,

Your MCEA Bargaining Team
