Member engagement brings strength to the table
Vacaville – From March 1st to March 31, 2025, IBEW 1245 PG&E members submitted proposals for upcoming PG&E General Negotiations.
Proposals poured in right up until the deadline for submission. The last week of March a mountain of proposals submitted on paper arrived at the Hall along with all of those submitted electronically. The electronic submissions alone eclipsed any known total from past negotiating cycles with PG&E weeks ago. The previous record number was 4,500 from 2016. As of this writing, the counter registers over 12,000 proposals submissions with large piles of paper in the process of being digitized for examination and consideration by the Bargaining Committee members.
The unprecedented number of proposals submitted are a credit to the engagement and participation of all of our PG&E brothers and sisters from across the system. This level of engagement will be critical to what we can achieve at the bargaining table with the company. It will be vital through every step. Every informational meeting, Unit Meeting, Town Hall calls, and most vitally, every ratification vote. Thank you to everyone that submitted a proposal or endorsed one at a Unit Meeting. We are off to a tremendous start. Now the proposal baton is passed to the Bargaining Committee.
