Greetings Brothers and Sisters,

We’re planning another Lobby Day next Tuesday, the 8th, to push for fair raises. The budget figures come in on Monday so it’s time to start pushing for a decent raise and floor. The House Democrats are behind a 3% raise but it looks like we may have a fight for a decent floor. So if you’d like to go with us to Nashville next week please let me know and I’ll put you on the list. We’ll leave about 7am and by back around 6pm with a lunch per diem provided.

Email me at tander13@utk.edu, or call me at 865-934-7373. The Union is only as strong as it’s members make it, you can make a difference!

In Solidarity,
Tom Anderson,
Chair, Legislative Committee
