Please list this as a new topic, I would really like this to be published to show what SPSE is or isn't doing about this subject.
It only affects the 9 skilled craftsmen in plant who were axed, but the unions stand in this matter shows the true support they have for the members.

What happened to those Union members who were laid off (those skilled craftsmen in plant) before a contract was negotiated? Everytime a question is asked about this, we see this drivel about the age discrimination suit. Since the union was officially recognised, it WAS illegal for them to be subject to layoff before a contract was negotiated. This fact seems to be side-stepped everytime the question is asked. So I will ask it again, what is the union doing about it? seems like nothing to me, like I said earlier, they have the contract ( albeit a very unusually short contract at that) and who cares about the ones who got screwed? I know you are hearing organize!! But if I were you I would wait and see what happends to those few who were screwed over, when they had so-called "protection" by signing a union card. How the union takes care of its smaller supporters will show how much of what they say is pure BS or not.
The case of the 9 unit members that where laid off is being handled by the NLRB (NATIONAL LABOR RELATIONS BOARD); The board is representing the union againest LLNS unlawful termination of the 9 members:(US GOVT. VS LLNS) the wheels of justice turn slowly.
LLNL SKILL CRAFTS
I don't think anything will be done about it. They have the contract now, they receive the dues now, so the attitude is who cares?
