Maurilia Luevano, Paralegal (Office of the Public Defender)
“I interview clients to qualify for services of the Public Defender. The Board of Supervisors is not valuing my work. 1.25% is a slap in the face!”
Jewel Miller, Medical Admin Assistant II
“Positions have been eliminated and we are being asked to do more with less. The frantic pace cannot continue without compromising the quality of our work.”
