PMR UNION DUES REJECTED
Posted
On: Aug 18, 2009 (14:35:05)
To All:
The PMR Dues Increase Ballot was unsuccessful in its bid to increase the dues for PMR members. The initiation question, however , passed. The count is as follows:
Dues Increase 161 yes 226 no
Initiation increase 242 yes 145 no
A letter to each employer with dues checkoff will go out this week advising them of the increase in initiation fee effective 10/1/09.

410-850-8384 Fax
To all PMR Members:
The above e-mail was received yesterday from headquarters, as you can see the dues increase failed to be passed.
Mike, John, Ray and I will be meeting soon to look at the PMR’s financial condition as we have already been told by the International to cut costs. We all were hoping for a different outcome from the membership to keep our Union strong and to be able to keep up the fight for our members rights. Some of the reductions that we will have to look at will be, 1) Reducing legal costs, 2) Reducing travel costs and 3) Reduced office overhead costs.
We will keep you informed of decisions that are made affecting the PMR.
In solidarity,
Captain Tim Saffle

The MM&P jointly negotiated a new contract with King County in Seattle to operate their passenger only fleet. MM&P, IBU and MEBA succesfully negotiated this new contract. The county is now accepting applications for the new jobs that will begin in September. The following website http://www.kingcounty.gov/jobs , will allow you to apply for these new jobs.
