Topic: CUB Meeting - May 26, 2022
Workers Memorial Day is Thursday, April 28, 2022. Decades of struggle by working people and our unions have improved working conditions and made jobs safer, but it has not been enough. This year we are coming together to strengthen our rights and protections to ensure everyone can come home safely at the end of a work shift - and without chronic illnesses from toxic exposures at work.
CUB President Antoinette Ryan-Johnson asks all CUB members to wear blue if possible. If you can, take photos with other union members and coworkers to share with the union to raise awareness on social media.
There is also a virtual Workers Memorial Wall and will be a live streaming event by the US Department of Labor and the United Support and Memorial for Workplace Fatalities at 1:00 p.m. EST on the 28th.

The City Union of Baltimore is proud of and grateful for everyone who works in our 3-1-1, 9-1-1, and Police Emergency Dispatcher call center. You invaluable heroes are the first responders that aid Baltimoreans in times of trouble. Your professionalism and dedication bring certainty and help in moments of confusion and fear.
Thank you for all that you do in service to our city.
It is of the utmost importance that the state and city ensure that sewage and wastewater run off does not pollute the Chesapeake Bay. Our members at wastewater treatment facilities across the city are eager to do everything in their power to give those in the Baltimore region trust in the safety and cleanliness of our environment. We welcome updated infrastructure and other necessary mechanical and technical improvements that will help our members do their jobs.

“It was like waking up and learning you won the lottery.” That’s just one of the comments flooding the AFT offices from members who are elated to be free of student debt at last. After relentless advocacy, including an AFT lawsuit against former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program that was so broken is finally doing what it is supposed to do: delivering relief from student debt for thousands of borrowers. So far, $6.2 billion in student debt has been forgiven for 100,000 public service workers like teachers, nurses and professors.

February is American Heart Month and Feb. 4th is National Wear Red Day. Sadly cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. This is true across race and gender. We want you to be as healthy as possible, and spreading awareness about heart health is just one way we can help do that.
We cannot let our guard down and lapse on the known safety and health measures that help reduce the spread of the virus. These basic health and safety considerations must be seen as paramount for maintaining layers of protection in the workplace. CUB will host training sessions with AFT in which participants will learn about five key strategies to minimize exposure to COVID-19 and how to keep yourself safe at work. Additionally, topics on creating a safe workplace, vaccination, testing and available leave if you become sick with COVID-19 will be discussed.
Dear Brothers and Sisters of CUB,
It is with a sad heart that I inform you of the passing of our beloved Sister Geneva B. Ayers. Sister Ayers worked in the Finance Department for Baltimore City and served as an Area Vice President on the Executive Board and Steward Council for CUB members. After retiring, she continued her legacy and fight by becoming a member of CUB-800R, our Retiree Chapter. Sister Geneva will be truly missed.
