- Will go to the Statewide board for arbitration
- Work From Home
- Conflicting language
- APA redlined the contradictory language and returned to HR
- No response from HR
- Comparison of similar positions of AFSCME vs APA
- AFSCME gets step raises, so can quickly pass APA for similar jobs

- A couple previously non-paying have joined
