Transcript: Executive VP Angel Feliciano

Bargaining is scheduled to resume Wednesday, August 31st.

Contrary to rumors and misinformation being circulated, we are not working under an expired contract. We are working under an extended contract, which means all provisions of the contract are in tact, including medical, arbitration and job security.

As always, Local 1101 takes pride in the slogan “1101 takes care of its own”.

With eight members suspended for alleged strike activity, this time will be no different. We are asking every member to contribute, as we have done in the past, every week to a fund to take care of our members.  Your Chief Steward will have more information.

With the approaching storm, the bus trip to Washington this Saturday has been cancelled.

We hope each and everyone one of you is safe and sound as the storm reaches us.
