Republican
Legislators Delay Our Contract
Local 1000 Members Press GOP on MOU Bill
Local 1000 members are calling, e-mailing and
writing Republican state Assembly members, demanding they reverse their
position on the bill containing our ratified agreement and vote "yes" on
AB 964.
"It took our elected bargaining team nearly nine months to negotiate our
new contract with the DPA and the governor," said Local 1000 President
Yvonne Walker. "Now we need your help with the final step - getting it
through the Legislature."

Delegate
Elections Underway
Ballots have already been mailed to allow Local 1000 members to
elect delegates to the upcoming 65th General Council (delegate
convention) of the California State Employees Association (CSEA).
The General Council will be held Sep 4 - 7, 2009 in Los Angeles.
As an affiliate of CSEA, SEIU Local 1000's 50 District Labor
Councils (DLC or local chapter) may elect one delegate for every 100
members within each DLC. DLC 782 is entitled to elect 12
delegates.
The primary function of delegates is to represent SEIU Local 1000 at
the California State Employees Association (CSEA) General Council
joining delegates from the California State University Employees
Union, the Association of California State Supervisors and the CSEA
Retirees. At General Council, all delegates vote to elect CSEA
officers, adopt the Association’s 3-year budget, and accept or
reject proposed changes to the organization’s bylaws. SEIU Local
1000 delegates will vote on the 3-year budget for Local 1000.
