ALT TEXT: It is not up to an employer to decide when their workers can form a union—that choice belongs to the workers. On Beacon Hill, a Senate Counsel review is not the final law of the land, and the 40 Senators are in the business of making laws. Senate Leadership isn't rejecting our union because of legality, but because of willpower. Legislative staff organized after decades of unresponsive leadership, who failed to retain talented public servants. Today, Senate President Karen Spilka continued this pattern by closing the door on her own staff. Over the next few days, the Massachusetts State House Employee Union will be meeting with staff to plan next steps, but our pursuit of an equal, just, and supportive legislative workplace is just beginning.
