SF Supervisors David Chiu, Carmen Chu, and Eric Mar know that Prop B is Bad Medicine for San Francisco!

Today, Local 261 Business Manager Ramon Hernandez, Secretary-Treasurer David De La Torre, and myself were very proud of our SF Leadership for "walking the walk," not just talking the talk. The No on B campaign knows what Tom O'Connor and the Firefighters (IAFF Local 798,) already know, the more the voter learns about Proposition B, the more they know that it does not "Make it Fair!" (click for pics)
The Chinatown merchant walk started around 2pm, as dozens of voters joined Supervisors Chiu, Chu, and Mar at getting the word out on the streets in a critical voting District.
"It is critically important for the voters to know that our membership suffers a greater burden under this proposed measure because our membership makes a far lower compensation than many of the targeted city employees." - Ramon Hernandez, LiUNA! Local 261 Business Manager.
Many folks around town think that Prop B is a winner. Our membership has negotiated reform with this administration and will continue to openly and honestly engage in order to do what's right for San Francisco. For this measure to simply ignore that entire process is disrespectful to the working men and women we represent, but more importantly, is simply not progressive!" stated David De La Torre of Laborers' 261.
There are still many volunteer opportunities for workers and their families to get the message out to the voters that Prop B does not really "make it fair," visit http://www.nobadmedicine.com/ and volunteer today.
All members, join us October 30 at 10am for the GOTV!
