Dedicated employees are crucial to successfully executing the mission of our federal government. Every government agency needs employees’ full support and a constructive working relationship with their union if it’s going to fully achieve its goals.
That’s why administrations and congresses for decades have written policies and enacted laws that foster good working relationships between agencies and employee unions.
A collective bargaining agreement is at the heart of the relationship between the employees and the agency.
That’s why we are taking to the streets on Sept. 24.
We are fed up with the attacks on our rights, our contracts, and our voice at work! We are rising up for dignity, for fairness, for respect, and for a real voice at work!
When: Noon, Tuesday, Sept. 24, 2019
Where: Capitol Hill below Area 9 (across the street from the U.S. Supreme Court)
