BARGAINING TEAM IS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDING A YES VOTE!
This cycle the Union Negotiating Committee pushed to begin bargaining prior to expiration in order to come to a timely resolution.  After months of bargaining, the team received an offer they can recommend.
How to Cast Your Vote:

  1. Review the offer, then mark your ballot "Yes" to accept the proposal, or "No" to reject the proposal.

  2. Place your marked ballot in the Ballot Envelope. Do not put your name on the outside of the Ballot Envelope, or on the ballot itself. This ensures the secrecy of your ballot.

  3. Place the Ballot Envelope inside the Return Envelope.

  4. Sign the back of the Return Envelope, noting your name and work location. Your signature is how we verify each eligible voter can cast one and only one vote.

  5. Note: The Ballot Envelopes will be separated from the Return Envelopes before any Ballot Envelopes are opened, so the secrecy of your ballot is preserved.

  6. Ballots must be returned by Wednesday, May 27th in order to be counted.
