VOTE- You are the Union. You can effect change.
I support the Members For A Better Union Slate.
Read their Manifesto.
Then ask yourself:
Where was the board when we had the Vote of no Confidence in Sheriff Stanek?
Where was MNTLEL, where was the outcry, when the Stanek administration violated Detention Deputy Horobin's Garrity rights and released Garrity protected statements?
We took zero's for raises and for the first time step freezes....but we were forced to arbitrate, and lose, 3 NON-MONETARY ITEMS. Consider this, 4 of 7 of the County Board members are Teamsters' endorsed by DRIVE. The County could have agreed to any or all of our requests without costing them a dime if they had any fear of losing a DRIVE endorsement.
While most Teamsters took wage freezes and some groups took cuts many on the board increased their salaries!
It's time to vote in a new board that remembers that Teamsters are about strength and backing the members.
Vote for the MEMBERS FOR A BETTER UNION SLATE. Please don't just throw away the ballot. You pay dues and have the right to vote. You deserve maximum backing for the dues you pay.
