Fair Contract Now: 2027-29 Contract Negotiations

During our last round of contract negotiations in the summer of 2024, state budget projections were down and our employers were offering just 1% over two years.
WFSE members refused to accept a bad deal and took action across the state, helping move stalled negotiations at a critical moment.
Together we were able to secure a 5% general wage increase over two years and hundreds of job-class specific raises. With a new governor and a tougher budget, it's going to take all of us, alongside the communities we serve, to win a strong contract again.
