With
signs and flags in hand, members of UE Local 1010 at GE's Jet
Engine maintenance facility in California hit the streets
outside their plant on Friday, June 16th (and again on June
23rd), rallying for a decent
and fair contract with General Electric. Sending a message of
determination to the company and one of solidarity to the UE
negotiating committee in New York, their placards highlighted
some of the most pressing issues in this year's contract talks
with GE. Among the issues: job security, lower costs for medical
insurance, improved pensions, more paid time off,
and acceptable contract duration. |
