Red Alert! Amendment Introduced To Eliminate State Employees’ Negotiated Year One Wage Increase
Less than a day after the House Appropriations Committee voted to approve a negotiated wage increase (mind you, in just year one of the contract, not year two) for VSEA members in the union’s Non-Management, Corrections and Supervisory Units, Rep. Cynthia Browning introduced an amendment this afternoon to not even include a year one wage increase for state employees.

Browning’s amendment would stop employees from getting their negotiated, lump-sum payment and steps in year one of the contract.
The Browning Amendment is being voted on tomorrow (June 24). If approved, it would send VSEA back to the bargaining table. We can’t let that happen.
We need you to call your representatives in the House today and ask them to:
“Vote NO on the Browning Amendment!”

Please help spread the word by sharing this information with others and asking them to make a call to their Representatives as well. Thanks in advance for your help!
