We have some good news to report on health care for state employees! Our Coalition of Unions has achieved a tentative agreement with the State on our benefits for the 2019-2021 biennium.

Early this morning, the state released its proposed operating budget for the 2017-2019 biennium. All indications are that the legislature will vote on the agreement today and that the budget will be signed into law to avert a government shutdown and temporary layoffs of state employees.
