March 2, 2011 meeting cancelled
Due to the events in Madison, we are cancelling our Wednesday March 2, 2011 meeting. (Click here to download the bulletin)
We think it’s prudent to camcel this meeting for the following reasons:
- Some of our members are attending these protests. We respect their stand against Senate Bill 11, the “Budget Repair Bill” and value their opinions on matters and as such, do not want to conduct this meeting without them.
- We appreciate the generosity of the Amalgamated Transit Union Local 998 in letting us use their space for meetings and recognize that during this time they may wish to use this space themselves to conduct events to garner opposition to this bill, which eliminates collective bargaining rights for public employees.
- We want to encourage members who haven’t already attended these protests to do so. This bill will hurt everyone. It will also cost the state $46.6 million in Federal funds for transit which will hurt bus riders statewide.
An informal meeting is planned for Saturday March 5.
