Results
of Bargaining Goals Ratification and Strike Authorization
Votes
On
Friday, February 26, 2010, voting concluded to ratify initial
bargaining demands and authorize the bargaining committee
to call a strike if circumstances warrant. The results are
as follows:
Approve
initial bargaining demands:
Yes: 99%
No: 1%
Authorize
committee to call strike if circumstances justify:
Yes: 90%
No: 10%
These
votes are the culmination of thousands of conversations with
ASEs that have informed the bargaining committee’s preparation
for negotiations. In the next several days we will be nailing
down a meeting schedule with the UW’s negotiating team,
and hope to engage in productive negotiations with them. Members
will receive regular updates over email and on our website.
At any time, please feel free to contact us if you’d
like more information or want to be further involved.
In
solidarity,
UAW 4121 Bargaining Committee
