Vote June 5!
You hear every election, that this is the most important election. If you belong to a union you should know already that this will be an election that will be remebered for generations. If you have been paying attention, you should already know that the Right has targeted this state for Right to Work legislation. Not a new topic but one that hasn't had much support in this state until recently. Most of us in the office spent numerous day and nights marching around the capital in solidarity of our public sector brothers and sisters. We knew then that Divide and Conquer was their strategy. We marched along side many union Laborers and non-union Laborers. I was suprised at how many non-union folks realized how much working conditions and wages would suffer if we went to a right to work state. I hope your union brothers and sisters realize how much our union would suffer if the Right had their way and made this a Right to Work state. There is not a lot of time left before June 5 but there is still enough time to make a difference. Volunteer If you can. Bring as many people to the polls if you can. Talk about the election and its impact on us to your family and co-workers. If all else fails we can still make our union stronger but we need your help.
In Solidarity

Posted By Adele Stan On December 2, 2011 (1:58 pm) In Economy, Other<br />
<br />
At a White House event today featuring President Barack Obama and former President Bill Clinton, AFT President Randi Weingarten represented labor leaders in joining university presidents and corporate executives in support of the presidential Better Buildings Challenge initiative.<br />
<br />
President Obama announced that nearly $4 billion of investments have been committed already, including $2 billion by workers’ pension funds, CEOs, mayors and university presidents for energy-saving upgrades. The labor movement committed to work to invest $150 million in energy-efficient retrofit projects in the coming months.<br />
<br />
The goal of the initiative, which builds on work begun by the AFL-CIO earlier this year with the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI), is to spur job creation by harnessing private sector investment in energy upgrades in commercial and industrial buildings.<br />

Hammes co. turned in paperwork to complete a TIF agreement with the city of madison. City Attorney say's it's virtually impossible to get paperwork done before 2012. It would also have to be approved by City alderman by a super majority. Which seems highly unlikely since they decide not to fund the project for 2012. However, Mayor Paul Soglin says he will honor the TIF if the council approves the borrowing.<br />

Instead they voted to offer 3 million in TIF financing. If the project would have been financed this year it would have still qualified for the 16 million, however the project was held up in court by lawsuits. The Hammes Co. says they have qualified for financing but getting TIF finalized this year seems highly unlikely. Bob Dunn, from Hammes Co. said it would likely finalize late 1st quarter early 2nd quarter next year(March or April). <br />
<br />
The 10 alderman that voted against the Edgewater project are:<br />
District 1 Lisa Suebeck, D4 Michael Verveer, D5 Shiva Bidar-Sielaff, D6 Marsha Rummel, D10 Brian Solomon, D12 Satya V. Rhodes, D13 Sue Ellingson, D15 Larry Palm, D16 Jill Johnson, and D18 Anita Weier. If any of these alderman represent you, ask them why they don't support jobs? Ask them why they don't support increasing the Tax revenue? Ask them why they don't think Madison needs more quality lodging? Ask them why they would tell future developers and Banks that city of Madison doesn't honor their commitments? Ask them why they are against public space @ edgewater? Ask them how many jobs are they going to create? We must hold them accountable for destroying these jobs and hurting future development in Madison.local 464http://www.blogger.com/profile/06223854587070552170noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466708356682586045.post-4413090592697014472011-11-15T08:59:00.000-08:002011-11-15T08:59:49.957-08:00Vote on Edgewater Tonite.
