Help support union brothers & sisters in Costa Mesa
July 20, 2020
Many of you may remember the battles fought by OCEA and our members in the Costa Mesa City Employees Association when an anti-worker City Council majority attempted to layoff hundreds of City workers in violation of our negotiated labor agreements. We won that fight in court and when the Council put anti-worker initiatives before the voters, we defeated them again at the ballot box.
