I understand that it is difficult to get out ACCURATE information and total information at this point. I am sure that we will all continue to check this site on a regular basis today and in the next few days. Whatever updates can be given will be GREATLY appreciated by everyone.

Even the commissioners can't tell you what the County Board passed in it's budget at 3 am on 2/23/07. The accurate information you deserve will most likely be available on Monday, possibly Tuesday of next week.

I know things will be coming in as bits and pieces through the news, which is why I think it is VERY important for the union to get some information out to sites TODAY!! Lots of people have gotten letters over the past week and no one deserves to go into this weekend not knowing about their job. PLEASE get information to stewards at each location so that we do not have a whole office of people running around in a panic and yet another weekend of stress and worry.
