As you all know, we have transitioned into the economic portion of contract negotiations. The bargaining team made up of your unit chair person, their stewards of choice as well as myself has submitted the first economic counter proposal along with their own proposals based on the surveys you submitted. As we move forward, please remember to do your part and get out to cast your vote November 2nd at our Local union office, 1010 River Street, Lansing (8:00am-8:00pm). 

Casting your yes vote on the November 2nd Strike Authorization Vote, will give your union a legal right to seek permission from our region to strike if necessary. Please contact me directly via text at 517-599-2974 or email me at derrick.mcduffey@sparrow.org if you have any questions.
