MontCo Workers Demand County Honor Contracts

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
Montgomery County workers plan to turn out in full force today at the County Council meeting to vote on whether to recommend full funding of Montgomery county union contracts, reports UFCW 1994 MCGEO. “Members of UFCW 1994, IAFF 1664, FOP 35, SEIU 500 and MCEA are in serious jeopardy of having their contracts broken by a Council which would rather balance the budget on the backs of county employees than tap emergency surplus reserves,” reports Local 1994’s Doug Menapace. “We are calling on our brothers and sisters to stand with us as we attempt to influence the Council on this issue.” Meet today at 12:45P in the EOB cafeteria, 101 Monroe St, Rockville, MD.
