IBEW 1245 Joins Coalition in Opposition to AB 1993 (Statewide COVID Vaccine Mandate)

March 29, 2022

At a time when organized labor is under increasing attack from wealthy business interests and anti-labor organizations, the state of California enacting a policy that denies workers the ability to bargain with their employer over a mandate that may not only impact their employment but even cost them their job would be unconscionable.

Retiree Perspective: To Elect Lawmakers That Reflect Our Values, We Must Listen

March 21, 2022

Welcome to Spring, and the start of another election cycle. Elections are a lot like a sports draft. We won’t really know what we’ve got until they are in the game. If a bad draft choice is made, it is an unhappy situation for the fans — but if a bad choice is made in… [Read More]

Dean: Build Back Better Must Unlock Energy Storage Potential to Reduce Emissions (via RealClearEnergy)

November 23, 2021

As Congress debates the Build Back Better Act, one key provision designed to encourage rapid adoption of large-scale battery storage will, perversely, have the opposite effect. As currently drafted, it is not financially feasible for regulated utilities to install these modern, efficient batteries that are essential to ensure renewable energy sources, like wind and solar,… [Read More]

SB 270: A Win for Organized Labor and Public Sector Employees

September 29, 2021

On Monday, Governor Newsom signed SB 270 (Durazo) to create penalties for public sector employers who refuse to provide information on their new hires and employees for purposes of contact by the bargaining representatives.

Protect Our Progress — Vote NO on the Recall in California

July 23, 2021

Millionaires who want to roll back worker protections in California are funneling big money into a campaign to recall Gov. Gavin Newsom. If they are successful, we’ll lose many of the hard-fought gains we’ve made on higher wages, paid sick leave, and safety on the job. The recall backers are part of a national network… [Read More]

IBEW 1245 Supports Passage of the PRO Act

July 23, 2021

  Our nation’s labor laws are woefully outdated and have become ineffective as a means for working people to have our voices heard. Last year, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the most significant worker empowerment legislation since the Great Depression, but an anti-worker majority blocked it in the Senate. That piece of legislation, the… [Read More]
