Education Minnesota members show support for unsettled locals in Bargaining Solidarity Day of Action
With bargaining season in full swing, several locals have not yet settled new contracts. Many of these locals have been in negotiations for several months and have been organizing their members to advocate for fair contracts. To show support for our locals that have been in protracted bargaining, Education Minnesota hosted a Bargaining Solidarity Day of Action on Jan. 8. We invited members from locals who are either not in negotiations or who have already settled their contracts to stand in solidarity and support with those in negotiations through social media posts. The event was a big success, with hundreds of pictures pouring in from all over the state and upwards of 65 locals participating. We have included several pictures below. (The full spread of pictures is featured on the cover of this issue.) Thank you to everyone who participated!
Editor’s note: Since bargaining is a very fluid process, some of the locals receiving support on our Solidarity Day of Action have since settled their contracts or reached a tentative agreement.
