Union News

According to the Colorado WINS union reps we are set to get the union here at the Fort. All we need to do is be sure and send in the ballots when you receive them. Several people are helping to remind people to do this when it is time.

Bobby said that we had over 500 cards signed for the balloting to be allowed and that this is well over the 45% that was needed for the balloting to happen. He also said that we will be joined by 32,ooo other people state wide in the union. This should give us more bargaining power when needed.

The cards we signed for the union are being tallied and verified right now and we should see the ballots coming before long.

I'm hopeful that this will help us in the long run and that it will have been worth the effort. Something needs to change here (at the Fort) and this will be a good start.

Sorry it's taken so long to get this news on the blog.
