Greetings:
Attached are the DEQ budget priority list and
the mandated 10% reduction package submitted by the Agency.
Dick Pederson provided these documents to the
Dick Dezeeuw and I for review. Knowing that many members would find these
valuable we have scanned the documents for posting.
Ralph Groener, AFSCME Council lobbyist and myself will be meeting with
Greg Aldrich and Dick Pederson soon to discuss these priorities and
welcome any feedback you wish to offer.
A message with a link to these will also be
posted on the message board at
www.moovinup.com. Please feel free to visit the site to post feedback
about these documents. This forum works well for that type of exchange
and I can make sure Ralph is aware of your messages.
The Union has not received the "cut list"
with associated names at this time but we have requested that
information and expect to have it within a week.
Take care all.
In solidarity,
Issa
