The ratification brings this round of bargaining, our 19th with the employer, to a close.

Thank you!
I want to express my deep appreciation to the members of the FSA Bargaining Team: Terry Gordon, Zaa Joseph, Kenzie Woodbridge, Tom Lane, and Maria Angerilli (FSA staff support).
We also appreciate the participation of members from the very beginning of this round of bargaining. It is with your input and feedback that bargaining themes are developed which lead to bargaining proposals at the table. The FSA staff have all been instrumental in supporting the bargaining process and I extend our appreciation to them for their support and provision of information.
