Stopping the Privatization of Public Housing
“We’re more than workers of the Housing Authority. Many of us are former residents. This isn’t just a job for us. It’s our community. We owe it to the residents who are struggling to get by to fight for it,” said Carol Homes who works as an eligibility worker at the San Francisco Housing Authority (SFHA) “Handing it over to some private organization isn’t the answer.”

Stand Up and Speak Out!
Wednesday, March 27 at 4:00 pm at SF City Hall, Room 305
Wear your purple and speak out before the Mayor’s Task Force on the Minimum Compensation Ordinance (MCO).
Nonprofit workers and our community and labor allies fought hard to get City leaders to prioritize raising nonprofit wages, but we must make sure the Task Force raises the wages of everyone —from the lowest paid workers to those who are responsible for leading programs at nonprofits. Together we must make sure that nonprofit workers who step into positions with increased responsibilities are compensated accordingly.

Protections for California Renters, Including Rent Control, Could Be A Reality
Housing costs are skyrocketing, and many Californians want to make renter protections a reality. The majority of California’s 17 million renters do not have access to stable and affordable housing. Over half of California renters are rent-burdened, meaning they spend over 30 percent of their income on rent, and one-third of renters spend over 50 percent of their income on rent. 160,000 families appear in eviction court annually.

Alameda County Bargaining Update
March 13, 2019
Tentative Agreement Reached!
Your bargaining team is happy to announce that after over a
month of meetings since January, a tentative agreement on a
3-year contract extension with the County has been reached. The
agreement is a significant improvement on the extension offer
that was rejected in 2018. In the coming weeks our Union plans to
hold multiple worksite meetings and Town Halls to answer
questions and share more about the tentative agreement. Extension
ratification vote will be scheduled for mid-April.
