Both sides apart on key issues
After spending 12 days with Local 1000's latest contract proposal, the governor's negotiators returned to the table on Aug. 30 presenting the same proposal they submitted on Aug. 12.
"We're working to be part of the budget solution, but we won't settle for a contract at any cost--we must have a contract that provides stability for our members," said Local 1000 President Yvonne Walker.
