Members of Oregon’s largest union have tentatively agreed to a contract with Gov. Kitzhaber.
Seventy-seven percent of Service Employee’s International Union Local 503 members approved the two-year contract. SEIU workers voted to approve the contract despite some sacrifice required on their part. The contract argeements passed with three-to-one in favor, but still has many union members in opposition.
KBOO’s Air Cascadia host Chris Andrae spoke with Greg Margolis with Jobs for Justice about the impact this deal may have.
