Please plan to attend this CBC Meeting. Northwest Region UniServ Representative Russ Dauberman will present: Beyond Bread and Butter: Bargaining for the Common Good
Bargaining for the common good is about building long-term community-labor power, not about giving unions some good publicity during a contract fight. Through engaging our members and community allies and identifying issues that resonate with both, we can create opportunities for deep relationship-building and develop strategies that leverage our collective power to win the schools our students, members, and communities deserve.
