[The Straight Story]

Union Contracts

County Executive Scott Walker issued the following
statement after another of Milwaukee County’s labor
unions agreed to contract concessions consistent with
the provisions in the 2010 budget. The County
Executive will eliminate the additional furlough days
and prevent layoffs of the attorneys union members
through the end of the year.

"I am pleased that the members of the county attorneys
union voted today to approve a contract that included
the wage and benefit reforms the County Board and I
included in the 2010 budget. I will rescind the 10
furlough days imposed earlier this year.

The Personnel Committee also deserves our thanks for
supporting these reforms. This is a positive
development as it is the third union to agree to the
wage and benefit reforms. We are another step toward
a balanced budget."

The Association of Milwaukee County Attorneys union
joins TEAMCO and the Machinists and Aerospace
Workers in agreeing to the modest wage and benefit
reforms that are already in place for non-represented
employees. These reforms include a wage freeze, no
step increases, a $30 per month health care premium
increase, and a change in the pension multiplier
