All for the sake of one more Republican vote.

The Road to a Fair Union Contract
09/16/26 - Washington Federation of State Employees Local 313
If you’ve been keeping track of our work to set the stage for this round of negotiations, you know that our members have done exactly what we needed to do over the last year to prevent backsliding and put ourselves in a position to push forward at the table rather than have to claw our way back. We stopped the legislature from canceling out our raises and jacking up our healthcare premiums in 2025. We made history and passed the Millionaires Tax, brightening a dim budget outlook with the promise of billions in funding for WFSE members' jobs beginning in 2029. We are currently in the midst on contract negotiations for the 2027-29 contract. If you would like to learn more about the contract process, follow the link in the image.
