Victory Today For 32bj: How Sweet the Sound

It was time for the New York Residential Division contract to be renewed but the Realty Advisory Board desired the members to get screwed that wanted the members to give some of their benefits back but 32BJ leadership stayed focus and on track so on and on and on the bargaining talks did go but the union refused to have any give backs nor accept the word no we don't bend over, we don't back up and we sure as hell don't back down our President Michael Fishman and his team stood their ground it came down to the wire and neither side would concede or give in until we had a rally with 10,000 plus members and called on our political friends and at the midnight hour the new agreement went into effect 32BJ's leadership got the members exactly what they'd expect they kept all 10 of their contractual sick days and no percentage of their healthcare do they have to pay they will get a raise in all four of the contract's years and there will be no hiring system on a level that is two-tiered VICTORY for 32BJ the union that never backs down VICTORY for the New York Residential Division HOW SWEET THE SOUND
