Session 27: Money Talks
/We are in the final two days of our contract extension and the bargaining committee will be at the table today and tomorrow in an effort to hammer out a deal on wages that our members deserve.
Yesterday Dow Jones presented the union a revised proposal offering a ratification bonus of 0.5% of salary for 2019. The company is maintaining its offer for 2% raises for 2019 and 2020 and for 2.25% raises in the final year of the contract.
As a strong majority of our members said this week, we are worth more. And as we have pointed out to company representatives, the money is there.
Keep showing your support for the bargaining committee and stay tuned for updates in the next 48 hours.
