We’re Making Noise at City Hall!

Everywhere you look at City Hall these days, your union, together with our partners in the Coalition of LA City Unions, is there – holding alice1 rallies, testifying before the Council’s Budget and Finance Committee, conducting press conferences, lobbying our friends on the Council and talking to the press.

“Game on,” we told the mayor and CAO, when they laid down the gauntlet with their new proposed budget last month that would eliminate hundreds of our jobs. Our members and the unions have worked with you to make this city run, and now you’ve gone too far. The Coalition once again, presented alternative budget solutions that clearly show NO layoffs are necessary – and will better serve the city – and we’re going to continue making noise until you listen to us.

Let’s Make Noise!

Join Your Local at City Council Chambers Next Week for Budget Votes

Please join your fellow union members starting May 15 as the City Council begins voting on the budget. Make sure you are present to speak out for our jobs and our future. LA city services depend on us to make them run!
