Protect Union Rights & Bargaining Power
We call on AG Rob Bonta and any court-appointed monitor to publicly commit to protecting collective bargaining rights. Receivership must not become an excuse to bypass or weaken union agreements.
Make Safety the Top Priority
Everyone – staff, clients, and the community – deserves a safe environment. That requires:
-
Better equipment and protective gear
-
Fully staffed posts
-
Consistent safety protocols
-
And an end to policies that put workers in harm’s way
Support the Workers Who Show Up
The members of our three unions have continued to serve with dedication despite broken systems, poor leadership, and a lack of resources. The monitor must work to improve conditions on the ground, not just reassign blame.
Invest in Respect, Training, and Conditions
Workers must be treated with dignity. That means:
-
Respect from leadership
-
Improved training and professional development
-
Real investment in working conditions and tools to do the job well
Include Us in the Process
We call on the AG and the monitor to formally include labor representatives in every step of this process. Workers and our unions must have a seat at the table – not just for input, but for decision-making power.
