For the last several weeks, CWA members in New Jersey have been going
all out to fight for the Responsible Collective Negotiations Act to
strengthen workers' bargaining rights. The act expands the scope of
bargaining for state government workers beyond basic topics like wages
and benefits, and stops state government management from imposing
their version of a contract during bargaining with employees. It also
allows unions to charge non-union members for the cost of arbitration.
With time running out to get this bill passed, members send over 700
emails to their New Jersey State legislators, urging them to stand
with workers and strengthen our collective bargaining rights. That
hard work paid off on Monday, when legislators voted to PASS the
Responsible Collective Negotiations Act in the Senate (23-14) and
Assembly (49-27-1). This is a huge win for our 30,000 State
Worker members in New Jersey, and will have a big impact on our
bargaining power going forward!
