Bargaining Update

On January 14th, Gloucester County library workers, who organized to join CWA Local 1085 in 2019, celebrated the overwhelming ratification of their first contract! Highlights of the contract include raises retroactive to 1/1/19 and a reduction in premium sharing for healthcare.

"My grandmother was a CWA dues-paying member for over thirty years and was able to provide for her five children after her husband died in his thirties," said Organizing Committee and Bargaining Committee member Jim O'Connor. "Her youngest at the time was still in a stroller. She had job security and peace of mind."
