WSU Bargaining Update #1 - July 24, 2024

Bargaining for your 2025-2027 contract has officially begun! We had our first round of bargaining last week, on July 16, 2024, and it has been professional and not too contentious. Aside from a number of minor grammar and date changes, which we reached Tentative Agreements (TA's) on, we’ve also tidied up a few other Articles. Our next bargaining session will be August 15, 2024, and we plan to delve into economics and all other remaining issues. Please reach out to your bargaining team members or WFSE staff with any questions and look for further information in the coming weeks!

Your bargaining team is:

  • Member—Nathan Smith
  • Member—Jason Brausen

Your staff support is:

  • Chief Negotiator—Sarah Smith, WFSE Staff Labor Advocate
  • Co-Negotiator—Ron Heley, WFSE Staff Labor Advocate
