Coalition Union Brothers and Sisters,
Keeping our promise as your Coalition union leaders, we recently met again with Kaiser Permanente management on the progress of the financial performance of the Southern California region and what that means for your Performance Sharing Program (PSP) bonus.
You’ll soon be getting reports on how we are doing. The company has had a couple of good months, and teams are working hard on many of our goals. Our success depends on everyone pitching in and stepping up. Please continue to do your best, and help others do the same.
Morgan Stanley Wealth Management Services has been soliciting Kaiser Permanente employees to utilize their programs for their retirement investments. We are concerned that they are advising employees about retirement decisions that could impact their eligibility for retiree health coverage without sound knowledge of the Kaiser Permanente plans. Kaiser Permanente does not endorse these events in any way. In fact, we are advising all employees to use caution when responding to these solicitations from Morgan Stanley. We have actively discouraged Morgan Stanley from discussing our benefit plans of which they have no knowledge, but Morgan Stanley has not been responsive to our requests.
Dear Local 30 Member,
I am very pleased to be sending you this Local 30 Scholarship Fund application. Once again, the members of our Scholarship Committee have worked very hard to bring our members this wonderful benefit. If you, or a member of your immediate family is currently attending College, or will be this fall then this Union benefit is just in time.
Enclosed please find the scholarship application form, a copy of the rules, and other information about this program. You are welcome to send in one application for each eligible family member. Acceptance letter or school registration information must be attached to the application and submitted to the Local 30 office by September 30, 2016, to be eligible for the Scholarship drawing. Please be sure to apply as soon as possible. We will draw the winners at our October General Membership meetings.
With the cost of higher education at an all time high, any financial assistance will help. This is yet another benefit designed for Local 30 members and their families.
As always, thank you for your support of your Union!
In unity,
Walter Allen, Jr.
Executive Director/CFO
Today, the San Diego City Council overrode Mayor Kevin Faulconer’s veto and OFFICIALLY PASSED THE EARNED SICK DAYS AND MINIMUM WAGE ORDINANCE! Their override means that the Earned Sick Leave-Minimum Wage is once again in place to help hardworking San Diegans who struggle to pay the rent and buy groceries.
However, our fight continues, opponents representing a small handful of special interests have announced that they are prepared to spend what it takes to repeal the law. They will be in front of grocery stores and other areas in the city attempting to collect 34,000 signatures to repeal the law.
To push back against this brazen attack against hard working San Diegans we need your help! Council President Todd Gloria, Irwin Jacobs, Mel Katz, Bill Walton and Barbara Bry kicked off the citywide campaign, simply called “Don’t Sign It,” to defeat the referendum against the ordinance.
Today, City Council stood up for 280,000 San Diegans who lack sick leave and nearly 200,000 low-wage workers who work hard every day and can’t afford rent and groceries, now its time to do our part. Here's what you can do:
