On February 8, our SEIU Central Table Bargaining Team will meet with the state for the first full negotiation session. At this meeting, our negotiating team will deliver the demands that union members have for our new contract: economic justice, safe and equitable workplaces, sustainable workloads, and equity in remote work. Our Coalition bargaining teams will begin meeting with the state in mid-February.
To win, we need to build union power at every worksite and state agency. Building a strong Contract Action Team (CAT) of members who can keep coworkers updated on bargaining and involved in actions to show the state we’re serious about winning a great contract this year.
