Great Letter sent in Solidarity from the AFL-CIO to Ms. O'Donnell

Dear Ms. O'Donnell:
We write in solidarity with our brothers and sisters of the BOCES TA and share their frustration of the pace of bargaining for a fair new contract.
​
Over 1,000 days is too long to wait for a new contract. SW BOCES is an integral part of our community and the BTA services some of the most vulnerable students in Westchester County. The BTA is being faced with increasing demands and decreasing benefits.

We urge you to respect your teachers and staff.  We also call on you to respect the collective bargaining process, end the delays, and come to the table in good faith to resolve the remaining contract issues.
 
In Unity,
The Westchester/Putnam Central Labor Body AFL-CIO
