THANK YOU FOR YOUR SOLIDARITY as we continue to fight for fairness at the bargaining table with OCFA’s JPA Board of Directors. We know this fight has been long and difficult, but it’s because of you and your fellow co-workers that we were able to build a campaign in 2022 that we believe sets us up for success in 2023.

Thank you for stepping up to make history with us at the polls to ensure our OCEA-endorsed candidates won their elections! For the first time since OCEA was founded in 1937, the Orange County Board of Supervisors will be comprised of a staunchly labor-friendly majority.

This Wednesday, you’ll see the 6% negotiated general wage increase reflected on your paycheck. You’ll also see a 6% increase to OCEA dues—for the average OCEA worker .79 cents per paycheck, or $20.54 annually. Like every other labor organization, OCEA must responsibly deal with the ever-increasing cost of providing representation.

Thank you to everyone who was able to join us for the membership meeting last week. During the meeting we discussed the possibility of requesting a reopener for our contract. Before proceeding with this request, your OCWDEA Board needs your input.

Earlier this week, we watched millions of Americans head to the polls to honor our fundamental right to vote—giving us as individuals a say in our democracy. With Veteran’s Day ending the week, the correlation between those who served and sacrificed for our rights and the preservation of democracy and society at home and abroad could not be more evident.
