I would like to announce the results of the ratification of Article 23.

Yes-427

No-17

Total Ballots-444

Invalid Ballots-81

Your one time payment will appear in your January 29, 2021 check. I would like to thank the Election Committee for organizing the ratification and thank those members and people on the bargaining unit that showed up to help, witness or assist in the ratification over the last five weeks. We also had members show up to organize and count ballots tonight, we all owe a debt to them for taking their evening and donating it to the union. The union cannot do its work without volunteers when needed. I know your free time is valuable and those of us who serve as officers and on Council we give you our thanks for the time you spend bargaining our contract, representing us in grievances, and showing up on short notice to count ratification ballots.

This is your union working for you. If you haven’t considered it please think about ways you can volunteer and help your union, help your co-workers and contribute to making UCF a better workplace.

In solidarity,

Robert Cassanello
UFF-UCF President
