A Busy Spring Ahead

MEA is getting ready for a petition drive to put a constitutional amendment on the ballot this fall. More than a dozen unions and organizations will be pushing for an amendment to protect workers rights in Michigan. With the passage of Right to Work law in Indiana, Michigan House Republicans, led by Speaker Jase Bolger, are sure to push the same kind of nonsense this year. Local MEA leaders, including yours truly, will be meeting to discuss strategy and organization to head off this onerous and job threatening legislation. Plan on helping in this effort. Stay tuned for details.
