On September 16^th, your Bargaining Committee held a ratification meeting via Zoom to go over the recently reached tentative collective agreement. Electronic voting on the tentative agreement took place from September 17^th to September 27^th inclusive.

The results of the question "Do you accept the tentative collective agreement?" are as follows:

· Yes: 68.1%

· No: 31.9%

 The 4% wage increase will be effective on your next pay period. All of the other changes will be effective as of the date of ratification.

We would like to thank the Bargaining Committee of Taylor Kriese, Nita Pedersen, and Patty Bates for their hard work, diligence, and advocacy on your behalf.

In solidarity
