Tulare County Contract Action Team Kicks Off Membership Drive

 New Tulare County Bargaining Team ready to win a fair contract for all members. Go to the Tulare County worksite page for weekly bargaining updates. 

January 17, 2008 --
Nearly a hundred workers from every corner of Tulare County poured in to the Visalia Veteran’s Hall this evening to attend our first Contract Action Team (CAT) meeting. The gathering was to gear up for countywide bargaining, which will affect the lives of over 2,700 workers and their families.

What started off with the typical mingling and munching quickly built up into an exciting, upbeat meeting with frequent cheering and clapping by energetic participants. Members ultimately focused on organizing training with role playing to equip the CAT leaders with the right tools to build our union.  

By evening's end, nearly 100 CAT leaders strolled out of the hall with newfound confidence, assignments in hand, and the determination to transform our union to make positive change in our contract.
