CPPW email update – Rally at City Hall on Wed. September 16!
If You Do One Thing – This Is It!
The single most important thing you can do next week is attend the 9/16 Just Practicing Rally with a group of friends & coworkers.
When it comes to settling union contracts, the City of Portland has a history of dragging their feet. This year is no different.
As the bargaining team continues mediation, one thing is absolutely clear – this contract, your wages, any cost of living adjustments will only be won by CPPW members taking action together.
Just Practicing Rally
All City Union Rally at City Hall
Wed, Sept 16, 5:30-7 p.m.
4th Ave entrance of City Hall
