AFT President Randi Weingarten shared thoughts on campaigning with up-and-coming PSRP leaders.

The AFT PSRP leadership conference last month came chock-full of advice from activists on how to optimize campaigns, whether they focus on organizing, politics, a living wage or community service. PSRP co-chairs Carl Williams and Sarah Wofford led the proceedings. Williams is president of the Lawndale (Calif.) Federation of Classified Employees, a former school custodian and president of California’s classified members. Wofford is an accounting specialist for Rogue Community College and president of the Oregon School Employees Association. Eighteen AFT locals sent paraprofessionals and school-related personnel to Chicago April 10-12 for the conference.

There is significant work involved in advancing the MOU to the Board of Estimates (BOE). The City Union of Baltimore remains in ongoing communication with the Labor Commissioner’s Office, and once we receive official notice of the date the MOU will appear on the BOE agenda, we will immediately share that information with our represented members.

------------------- UPDATE -------------------

Our MOU is on the BOE agenda for Wednesday, May 6. More information below...
